Holodance V0.9.0a12: More Fileformats, Better Orb Placement

Stuck After Song Bug Fixed

In the previous version, I introduced a bug that you'll see when you have disabled "Store Replay Data" in the Performance Settings.

EDIT: That bug is now fixed via a hotfix I just pushed online this morning.

Local Songs: More Fileformats, Better Orb Placement

So, the actual news are only two bullet points - but if you have a large music library that's not strictly MP3, you'll be very happy about this:

  • Local Songs: We'll no longer call this "Local MP3s" because we now support: mp3 (well, we've had that - but just to be sure people randomly bumping into this don't get confused), flac, ogg, opus, m4a, wma, wav.
  • Procedural Beatmapping: First version of Discookie's placement algorithm. Currently, this is the only option, and we're still working on improving this. In one of the next releases, we'll let you select different maps (aka difficulties) with different algorithms. So if you like the random orb placement from the previous version - don't worry, you'll be able to play this again soon.

I actually learned about Opus because someone asked for it on Reddit, quite an awesome format, this.
