Adding songs to Youbeat is quite simple. Simply drop the files into the SNG folder and it will be picked up by the game during loading.
曲を追加し方はかなり簡単です。ファイルをSNGフォルダーにコピーか移動するだけど、ソフトは読み込むときに自動的に見つけます。

The files that the game supports are as follows:
現在サポートされるファイルは以下のリストとなります：

If {songname}_prev.mp3 is missing, the song itself will be played.
{曲名}_prev.mp3がない場合は、本曲のｍｐ３が流れる。

If the Jacket image is missing then the default jacket will be displayed.
ジャケットのイメージがない場合は、デフォルトジャケットが表示される。

The song will only come up in the menu if at least ONE text file exists.
.txtファイル（どれの難易度でも良い）がない場合は、曲は表示されない。

.txt File format:

Please be careful using the adjustmentms variable; if you can adjust it with the skip count please do so; it can result in notes suddenly appearing at the start of the song if the adjustment ms is too great (it should, I think, always be within ±100ms)
ズレｍｓを変更するときに注意していただきたいことがあります。できる限りスキップ数でズレを直す方法を薦めます。多くの場合は±１００ｍｓ以内で直せますので、それより多くズレてる場合はスキップ数で直してみるように申し上げます。そうしないと、最初のノートがパーと出ることは可能性であります。

The song data follows the layout rules of this website
このサイトと同じように書いてください


The notenames are as follows:
ノートの順番は以下通りです：
Note numbers that exceed 10 become letters
１０を超える数字は字になります。

At the start of every readout there must be at least one blank section:
全曲の全難易度の曲データの最初は必ずブランクにしてください：

The left part is the panels, the right part is the rhythm.
左はパネルで、右はリズム。

For example, the following code makes a vertical line upwards of doubles through the middle, at even times:
たとえば、下から上までの真ん中のパネルの同時押し：

...and back down again:
で、下へ戻ろうか：

Then up again, on the outside, but faster:
で、また上へ。今回はもっと早めに：

And back down again:
で、また下がろう：

BUT! What if we want to do it to this timing, without the pause:
ですが！ポーズになっちゃいますよね？こうしたい場合はどうすればいいでしょう？

Like this:
こう：

It is not possible to put the same note twice in the same grid, so we can do this. Splitting the timing is no problem at all. You can even mix it up, like so (the same as before):
同じパネルを二回も重ねられないので、右のタイミング分を分けて、もう一つに左のパネル分つ作ればいい。バラバラにしても問題ありません。（さっきのと同じ）：

But it gets confusing so I recommend against it lol
ですが、バラバラにしすぎると混乱しやすくなってしまいますのでご遠慮くださいｗｗ

If you want to add thirds, fifths, certain odd "off time" notes into the music the song must be expanded out so that each row of timing has the lowest common multiple of these timings' notes.
huh?
Wikipedia explanation here.
３分、５分、などを追加したいときはこのままじゃ困りますね。ですから、ノートのタイミングに合わせて、右の方を最小公倍数まで太くします。
あれ？
はーいウィキペディアの説明はhttp://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/最小公倍数　にあります！

For example, the standard rhythm is:
たとえば、スタンダードリズムはこうですね：

But if a song has, say, 6 notes in a space where 4 goes:
ですが、４分（実は１６分ですけど）の曲で６分を入れたい場合はこうですね：

Then, to make these notes into the correct timing (ie to squeeze 6 notes into 4) then you "expand" the song. For 6 into 4, the whole song must be made 3 times the width; it needs to be expanded by 2...
で、タイミングを正しくするには、タイミングを太くすればいい。４分で６分を入れるには、タイミング数を３倍

The least common multiple of 6 and 4 is 12, so expand the lines with 4 in by 2 (*3) per note and the lines with 6 by 1 (*2) per note. The BPM must then be multiplied by 3.
４と６の最小公倍数は１２になります。なので、４個がある行の太さを３倍にして、６個がある行の太さを２倍にすることです。BPMは４個の行の通り、３倍にすることです：

The end result is this:
リザルトはこうなります：

Which has the notes correctly spaced.
これでノートのタイミングが正しくなります。

You can use the expander to do this (listed on the downloads page). I will update it so it works all this out automatically for you, but for now do it to just the 4-timed lines, then you'll need to manually adjust the other lines.
ダウンロードページにあるExpanderを使って、４個の行を自動的にやってもらっていただけますが、現在はほかの行を手動にしていただくしかありません。いつかアップデートするつもりですが、しばらくはそれでよろしこねがいします。

LCM(4, 5) = 20, so 4 lines have an extra 4 inserted (*5) between each note, and the 5 lines get an extra 3 inserted (*4)
LCM(4, 5) = 20、４個の行は５倍になって、５個の行は４倍になります。

LCM(4, 3) = 12, so 4 lines have an extra 2 inserted (*3) between each note, and the 3 lines get an extra 3 inserted (*4)
LCM(4, 3) = 12、４個の行は３倍になって、３個の行は４倍になります。

One final thing, also:
それで最後に、

Youbeat does not currently support BPM changes. I am sorry. I really want them too
Once I have added the marker selection menu code I will add support, plus a few other updates to the file format.
Youbeatは現在BPMの変更をサポートしません。申し訳ございません。僕だって使いたいですし orz
マーカーの選択のコードを打ってから、BPM変更を追加して、曲データのフォーマットをアップデートしておきます。

If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Sorry it's so long.
質問などがあった場合は、ぜひ聞いてください。長くてすみません。

Need some clarification on certain parts.

1. If I have a pattern that has 3 notes per beat for a full measure or more, is it possible to do this?


2. does a positive adjustment ms make the mp3 start that many ms before the readout starts, or does it make the mp3 start that many ms before the readout starts?

3. does the skip count skip measures or beats from the readout? also, does the skip count make the readout start that amount of beats after the mp3 starts, or does it skip that many beats from the readout before the mp3 starts?

Yes. It's perfectly fine, but the BPM will have to be adjusted accordingly.
It's OK for the BPM to be a real number, too, so if the BPM is actually 120, but you are using only threes then the BPM can be listed as 90. (I think; I'm not 100% sure, though. If you could test this and let me know how it works that would help a lot; I've not tried this yet)


A positive adjustment ms makes the mp3 start earlier.
What actually happens is the timing for all of the notes work off the elapsed time of the mp3. The adjustment ms is then added to this value, so if the adjustment ms is at -100, and the mp3 has just started playing (ie its elapsed time is 0ms) then the elapsed time is considered to be -100.


The skip count literally skips out characters from the rhythm readout string. Hence why negative values are not ok.

If the first part of the song is as so:

The reader reads the rhytm in as this:

It then steps through each character at the pace the BPM sets (it's actually bpm/15000 in ms per character). If the skip-count is 5 then is skips out the first 5 characters. In this case it will therefore read the string as this:

Note how the 1 has been missed out... So if you're missing notes check this.

If you need to make the notes start later, then just add another blank section to the start and adjust the skip count accordingly.


Just as a side-note, I plan to adjust the way the rhythm is read in (this is one of the updates to the file I mentioned in the previous post). Instead of having every character the same length in time, I plan to have every section between the bars as the same length. This will stop the need for the expander and make it much easier to make songs...

ie,
and
Will be the same.

I want to get this, and BPM changes added in as soon as I possibly can. It's annoying to have to expand the songs every time >.<

I hope this answers your questions. If you have any more please feel free to ask.
Thank you for your continued support

Well i've completed a version of it, Extreme , but it's not quite perfect , that's the main error. ><
i can't seem to get into the error, or find it, DAZ-Y3 if you can correct that error for me, thanks ^^
re-upload after correcting ^^ i wanna play true love ><

Noob, please don't post copyrighted mp3s on the forum >.<
I'm going to be removing the mp3s from the download on the next release, too... Gotta try and stop Konami getting angry at this project...
Sorry >.<

I'll sort out the charts for True Love and Shining star for you.
Shining Star will need the new song engine, so if you can give me a few more days to get v3.8 up and running (the menu's song select is done now btw) then I can get it all working for you

how do i put the song evans, bass 2 bass and in the name of love inside the youbeat i do not know how can any1 help me here

swat4t1,

Could you please say which part of the instructions you don't understand? That way I can try to write them more clearly

thank you for registering and posting a question

I am pretty sure he is asking for scripts and mp3s, not how to actually put them in

I did gather that that was the case but since I'm not in a position to distribute mp3s owned by other people I'm unable to interpret it as that

As for getting scripts it's all there in the post :/ There's a link in the post to the site that has most of the scripts and a converter (although doing it in notepad isn't an issue either)

perhaps i am really an idiot in editing the scripts, i have spent about 4 hours just to make it work for bass 2 bass, having the script copied from jubeat memo, but i failed...the notes appeared all of a sudden...
can DAZ-Y3 please kindly give me the script?
i am dying for it, thanks in advance~
