Okay, so I finally installed stepmania and have a few songs on it. But what I cant figure out is this-

When I go to websites such as ddrencore.com, the files arent capable of being uploaded on stepmania.com, how do I change the file to .zip or .smzip? mp3 wont work so how do I change something such as an mp3 to zip or smzip?

No, I think he's having problems installing songs.

Waka, the SM and MP3 files are all part of a song folder. Every song has a folder which contains an MP3/OGG sound file, a SM/DWI music file, and maybe some background images.

Copy the entire song folder to the destination. Your songs are stored in categories in Songs in your Stepmania program files.

So, if you download the song "Paranoia" and want to put it in your "DDR 1st Mix" category, you would copy the Paranoia folder to the category folder with a result like this:
C:/Program Files/StepMania/Songs/DDR 1st Mix/Paranoia
Any other songs you have from 1st mix will also go inside the 1st Mix folder. Remember that all song folders must be inside a category folder.

If you want to upload or compile a song or songpack into a SMZIP (that is, make your own collection to share with other people), there is a SMZIP package exporting tool in the StepMania tools program. You can find it in your Start menu with the StepMania link.
