  • Changes/Updates:
  • The Chord Cohesion indicator on the Evaluation Screen only shows when it is on

New in Etterna Online 0.66.0 (Jun 4, 2019)

  • IMPORTANT NOTE YOU SHOULD READ:
  • Internally, a lot has changed with this version. You will most likely need to fresh install the game. To do this, move your Save and Songs folders somewhere else safe. Move any other folder you like (Noteskins is a valid option as well). Uninstall the original copy or pick a new directory to install this version into.
  • The Assets Folder has been slightly restructured, so copying yours over if you happen to have any modifications done to it will almost definitely not work.
  • Another Note:
  • in order to fix select gameplay elements not saving their proper location when using widescreen and customize gameplay (judgment, combo, and tracker) they'll be loaded 5 pixels up and to the right from wherever you had them, if you are using widescreen and you are particular about this change, it can be undone by moving each of the elements one keyboard tick down and to the left (compiler flag)
  • New Features:
  • Asset Settings:
  • In an effort to centralize some popular customization options, we put together this screen.
  • Access from the Profile Tab or by clicking your Avatar
  • Avatars have been reset since we now use a different setting system for them
  • Displays Avatars, Toasties, and Judgments sitting in those respective subdirectories of the Assets folder
  • Double click or press enter on any Asset you want to confirm a selection on
  • Use the arrow keys, EffectUp/EffectDown, or mouse to navigate
  • Added the 2x6 Early/Late Default Judgment as an option
  • Added the old Toasty as an option
  • Toasties can load their own specific Lua file. An example is placed in the Legacy Toasty folder
  • If a custom Lua file is not present, a default one is loaded
  • Toasties must follow a strict naming scheme you can see by following the Legacy Toasty's pattern.
  • Judgments and Avatars may just be placed into their respective folders. Spritesheets (especially for Judgments) still require their appropriate suffix. The Judgements folder has been renamed to judgments for consistency with the rest of the program code so if you had judgments in there you may have to move them.
  • ScreenSelectMusic
  • Added a Sort Button you can click if for some reason you can't remember UpDownUpDown
  • Clicking Select Music will select a random song from any pack
  • When on Group Sort, clicking the Pack Name in the top right of the screen will put you on a random song in that pack

New in Etterna Online 0.65.1 (Apr 1, 2019)

  • Changes/Fixes:
  • Song Caching:
  • Moved a good bit of the loading stuff to Load From Disk. This means that your load from disk might be a bit longer than usual. This comes at the benefit of the cache not being slow
  • Cache load times are back to where they should be (fast)
  • Practice Mode:
  • Reduced seek stutter and lag a little
  • Holds and Rolls work properly. They may show up incorrectly faded, but will now function as intended otherwise
  • The density graph is now slightly smaller on 16:9 and 4:3 to force it to fit better by default
  • The lower rate limit for is now 0.3x rather than 0.35x
  • Cursor was not showing up in fullscreen
  • Gameplay:
  • Error bar was not saving when you move it in Customize Gameplay
  • Playlists were incorrectly resetting the NoteField position
  • Modifying the rate in both Practice Mode and Replay Mode will now update the necessary information. This includes the Rate, BPM, Rating, and Length strings. The density graph will also update in Practice Mode, but slowly
  • Clamped the bound for life decay on Rolls to Judge 7. You can now hit Rolls with relative ease on Justice
  • Multiplayer:
  • You are now forced to log out of multiplayer if you reach the Title Screen
  • The above change fixes backing out of the pack downloader putting you in multiplayer if you ever log in
  • Some invalid UTF-8 crashing with pack filtering should be fixed
  • Charts should no longer crash or stop you from picking them due to “Invalid UTF-8”
  • Filtering by common packs is now on by default
  • The toggle for the common pack filter persists for the entire session. This means it does not reset to default (On) unless you restart the game
  • Pushed a weird userlist object away from your view
  • Improved the userlist display coordinate calculations for rooms and the main lobby
  • Songs should start at an expected, consistent speed. You no longer start a song instantly if you start it on 3x rate
  • Color Config
  • You can now customize the color of your combo. This includes the label and the number
  • Miscellaneous:
  • CBs per hand now takes into account the number of columns instead of every column except the first 2 being counted as the right hand
  • Network options exit button was exhibiting unexpected behavior
  • Music wheel no longer vibrates oddly when you pick a song
  • Judge display in the lower frame should now update when you change it using the Player Options shortcut
  • The play counter was not updating after plays

  • Installer will now ask to uninstall if you pick a non default location rather than only the default location
  • Fixed crashes when making any non-canceling input after picking a profile on the Profile Options screen

  • Offset plots in multiplayer may not necessarily always work. Particularly, you might not be able to view your own plot if you click someone else’s
  • Preview and Practice Mode seeking may go off sync. Report specific instances of these issues in detail. We want to get this handled soon
  • Internal cache and load changes may break some song assets like banners or cdtitles. Report specific instances of this happening, if it didn’t happen in a previous version
  • Multiplayer user lists will appear on top of the Chord Density Graph if you turn the preview on. This is partially intended, but also due to the fact that we don’t have a good place to put the user list. Feel free to suggest a better location. This applies for situations with and without the visualizer
  • Development:
  • Libraries:
  • Removed libpng
  • Added STB Image Write to replace libpng. This could be used to replace the other image writers
