About Techno Fiend 2.8

I know this is a pretty stupid reason to make a topic, but I can't find any other appropriate forums about Techno Fiend or Stepmania.

In any case, for those who have it, could you possibly answer why sometimes, during your combo, the word Combo randomly stops flashing with each arrow as [I assume] its supposed to?

For some songs no matter how many greats or lower I get, it seems to always flash with every arrow, but on other songs, once I hit 100, or once I get some amount of greats, it just stays the same color and stops flashing..why?

That's a bug I can't seem to figure out. For some reason, speaking metrics, the command for the combo seems to be oddly done, giving me limited control on how things are done.

Normally, an object would have one OnCommand, but the combo has four.
You have something that occurs when you get greats, something else for perfects, marvelouses and lastly when the combo is broken (meaning when you break the combo record). Why this is, I have no idea. I also can't figure out why it stops at 100 sometimes. It does seem random to me too. I was hoping another SM themer could help me, but no luck on that one.

Best place to look for Techno Fiend information is definitely the Stepmania themes board at DDRManiaX.net. I don't mean to advertise, but that's the only place I post information about the theme. I didn't even think people on this board even knew it existed, otherwise I would've been glad to help others on any issues with the theme they might have. Other than what you mentioned, I hope you're enjoying it.
