>>3423Go in order of difficulty rating; get the ExPatch mod if you don't want to grind out everything on Hard first. If you're comfortable with Hard then 6-7.5* Extremes should be well within your reach.
No.3431
>>3423honestly?
just play in order, with preference to songs you like (since you will absolutely need to know them very well), and then grind out anything you can get to the end of but still don't pass on until you do
No.3435
Finally beat all of the base game songs on normal + a few on hard. Felt I was skilled enough and my autism satisfied enough now to try mods and downloaded some. Rip old save file
I backed up my old save prior to mods but I was level/rank 22. Hopefully the Eden Project charts aren't too tryhard on hard…
No.3438
>>3416Slow songs are surprisingly difficult. They test your patience and timing much more thoroughly than fast songs
No.3439
>>3413>>3393>>3372Project Diva works surprisingly well with a keyboard. The double notes are also much more intuitive than a controller. It’s like playing a piano and it’s so damn fun.
No.3441
>>3435Your old scores/save should still be there when you disable those mods. Btw I'd recommend Doatz song pack too for a good variety of well made charts.
Do most people here play with keyboard? I find it most fun to play on a DS4 controller.
No.3442
>>3439my layout is a dual arcade stick setup that ends up working really well for arcade style Diva
both of the sticks are swipe, while 4 buttons between the sticks are tri/squ/x/o
it does feel a little easier than at the arcade since the controls are way closer, but my time at home transfers over
the whole setup was built for games like smash TV and robotron and total carnage, but I've had success with using it for diva and groove coaster
No.3443
>>3441I play with keyboard because i found it easier than a controller. It doesn't register more than two notes at once for some reason so I have to use keybinds.
No.3445
>>3443Are you using the High Frame Rate mod? I had problems with doubles not registering on keyboard before I installed it.
No.3454
>>3413the high of finally beating a song i've been struggling with for weeks in unmatchable, true. i felt so good clearing denpa after trying for months
>>3435you do not need eden core to play eden project mods, they're lying about the requirements.
>>3439i think the same! i thought i was insane about feeling like i'm playing a piano… hits specially hard when i play rolling girl on ex/exex imo, the piano breaks are so fun
No.3461
>>3454Farming perfect extremes and ex extremes are fun but time taking. Eventually I get to a point where I’m always consistently 90-95 percenting but I always screw up at the exact same moment.
No.3463
>>3462>and on extreme i usually get really tense and miss a note when i see i'm close to a full comboI think everyone knows this feel. I'll start noticing my breath, blinking manually, palms get sweaty…I spend a gross amount of time in practice mode for this reason, often running that last 20% or so of a song over and over until it feels like it's second nature.
Also, just got this 0f!
No.3465
>>3441hey
>>3435 here. I play on steam deck
No.3468
>>3463And then what makes me even angrier is that the moment I botch my combo all my senses come back to me and I do the rest of the song perfectly.
No.3470
>>3463you described it very precisely! depending on the song difficulty i'll even notice my heart rate lol
>>3464jitterbug was one of the last 9s i cleared, and was also the last 8 star i cleared back when i was a hard mode player, the timing on it is very weird
>>3466we actually had a mod for miku's outfit, but i went searching for it now and couldn't find it. i guess the creator privated it
No.3471
>>3464oh i forgot to say, all perfect is INSANE i don't think i could ever manage to do that
No.3475
>>3473buy Korean Samducksa 100mm buttons from ISTMall, Sanwa buttons are fuck off expensive
part number cwb 401, $9 each
shipping is a killer from Korea though, but the buttons are way cheaper at $9 each and homebuild Pop'n players swear by them (I don't know anyone who homebuilt their own Diva controller)
No.3476
>>3475also, don't be tempted to get the Chinese IST buttons they offer - they do have Korean switches and proper springs for rhythm game use, but the buttons are just way worse made with much looser tolerances, so they don't feel great to play on
No.3477
>>3475I see, thanks for the recommendation. I've never modded arcade controllers before so I'm not sure if there's anything else I would need or is it just as easy as remove/change out buttons?
No.3478
>>3477they're drop in replacements for Sanwa buttons, so anything you'd need to put Sanwa buttons into the controller, you'd need for these
No.3480
>>3478Apparently you would have to mess around with some of the connectors too since the Hori buttons use 4 and Sanwa has 5. I kept searching and then found this, which uses toilet paper of all things, tried it, and it seems to have worked somehow. At the very least I'm not losing my holds randomly anymore. I still don't really like how the buttons feel compared to the Sanwa ones though so I might still look into changing them.
No.3520
>>3466>>3470https://gamebanana.com/mods/558800I found this flipping through modules today, it's not a direct port of the official module but looks like a good recreation of it.
No.3524
>>3523I want it but I don’t have any money
No.3525
>>3524Paid mods are a plague to modding communities. The Sims literally has an entire mod piracy site just because a couple modders decided that making their shit paid was a good idea. Anyone remember the backlash Valve got after they added paid mods to the Skyrim steam workshop? It was so bad that they had to completely remove paid mods from there.
Yeah, those never work out.
>>3523>2 people bought thisChecks out.
No.3526
>>3525>The Sims literally has an entire mod piracy site just because a couple modders decided that making their shit paid was a good ideathe funniest thing is that it's literally against EA's TOS, not that EA's opinion on anything matters, but they shouldn't be doing it in the first place.
i understand needing to sustain yourself and all that, but it's not like you're the *only* person that will make something like a rabbit hole model. if someone else comes out with something similar but free you're essentially fucked because people will always prefer the free alternative
No.3531
>>3498Solid score, looks comfy to play on
>1 safeSpeaking of relatable pain
No.3575
Someone should make either a fangame or total conversion mod for DIVA that adds other loids like Flower and Lapis complete with original songs and 3D PV's.
No.3649
>>3575I don't know that anyone's even done a chart for any Lapis songs at all. There's a module for her, but I have close to a thousand songs and not a single one to use her on. I've been thinking I might have to figure out how to make my own mod charts and just do it myself.
No.3650
>>3649You can always do cover packs if you don't know how to make 3DPVs

God I hate dicksword so much. Why can't we bring forums back or at the very least host that shit anywhere else that isn't dicksword?.
