Synthesia Talk

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

Heya folks, long time no see! What is the current go-to battle-tested MIDI - USB adapter for connecting MIDI keyboards? At first, the lumped EMU was recommended, then it went out of stock everywhere. Then, the Tab 1x1 was recommended, which in turn is getting more and more difficult to find (and mor...

That's great to hear! I would very much like to see a native Linux version as well, but I remember Nicholas once mentioned it would be too much of a hassle for a too small audience, which is unfortunate but that's the way it is. Things have changed a lot over the almost 10 years since I started this...

Hi everyone, hi Nicholas I haven't been in here in like 6 years, it's been a while. Big props to Nicholas for keeping up the development, I'm still grateful it exists! I remember there have been threads around demanding a Steam version, back then there were some considerations whether it was feasibl...

first post since 8 months, lol May I note, that I don't frequent the Synthesia fora as I used to in the beginning, and therefore might get here once a month? Therefore I won't really be able to answer questions that fast, so my apologies for that. I tried following the provided steps, which seemed t...

Anybody have any guesses on what might be the issue? Thanks. - What distro are you running? - What are the specs of your computer? (RAM, CPU, speakers/synthesizer) - What did you do different than this guide? If it's not Debian/Ubuntu/Mint/#!/Elementary, or if you set up the Linux environment yours...

The problem occurs again, it crashes constantly, even after rebooting. What I found out, is that removing the wine folder (/home/me/.wine) prior to running Synthesia fixes the issue. I'm still trying to figure out what causes this.

Actually it looks like you're a little ahead of the stable release. (Stable looks like it's 1.6.2) Does it crash with 1.6.2? It's not Wine who's at fault (using. I installed the multilib versions of libmpg123 and lib32-ncurses and everything is working fine now. Can't say it's solved, unless others...

It happens on all screens.

Nicholas wrote:Which renderer are you using? If you switch to the other one, does the crash still happen?

It happens when using OpenGL as well as DirectX.
(1500th post! Hooray!)

Synthesia just crashes approximately 20 seconds after start for unknown reason. Using wine 1.7.11 and r2613. Everything works, but it just closes right in front of me. I also get an error message from wine, but it closes too fast for me to read what it says. Log contents: err:module:load_builtin_dll...

If you use the real GDI+ DLLs instead, does that fix the problem? I don't know how exactly to use native DLLs with Wine, but I know it can be done. Grab that download, run it to extract, and use the gdiplus.dll you can find in the \asms\10\msft\windows\gdiplus\ extracted folder. Thanks, that fixed ...

Hello, Synthesia Forum! Sure haven't posted here in a long time. I have been using the 8.5 beta for a long time, and I noted this bug was still not fixed. FontBug.png If I recall correctly, the builds of begin-2012 worked just fine on Wine 1.4.0. All the fonts now in the scores in the library, in th...

After playing several games I thought I'd design how I'd like Synthesia would look like if Multiplayer would be implemented. The main screen ( full image ) 1.png Here are all the rooms visible. Private rooms must be searched for manually by IP. ( full image ) 2.png "New room" ( full image ) 3.png "J...

If I open up a song, and then go back to the library, the song I just selected is not focused on, instead the list is scrolled all the way up and pressing the play button on top doesn't work anymore. Pressing the up/down arrow keys won't make the list scroll down to the song again. Could this please...

When I wrote that Necrofantasia was the hardest song in the world, I was wrong. Night of Nights is the hardest song whith this 1.1 million of notes version For those who are skeptical, here is the midi file to compare with the other song That is an 8.36 MiB. Pretty impressive for a MIDI file. In fa...

Ok, sorry for late responding.
Maybe this could come in useful when we have the sheet-only screen, I suppose.

Crash report here. Error message Synthesia detected an unknown problem and must close! 'boost::filesystem::equivalent: File not found: "D:\MIDI\nocturne_48_1_(c)unknown.mid", "D:\MIDI\nocturne_48_1_(c)unknown.mid"' If you don't think this should have happened, please contact us at support@synthesiag...

I totally like the 'keyboard physics'; the reflection of the notes on the black keys and the height of the shadow of the black keys on the white keys is notably different than when it is stroken. It is very well detailed.

No, it is set to 3000 milliseconds, but when running in Wine, I must restart Wine so that it sees Qsynth again.
