Welcome to my website!!
My name is David Bernardini, and I'm a simfile author (or "stepartist"), which basically means I write arrow charts for songs, for use with StepMania or on an In The Groove 2 machine as custom songs. |
What's Going On Here
I am dedicated to 3 main concepts: |

NewsWebsite Last Updated: May 21, 2013
May 21 * [SIngle] "Brand-New Voice" fixed. It was off-sync after the intro-to-main-BPM roll, because that roll was at too slow a BPM, making the rest of the song feel too late. It was pumped up from 80 to 83 BPM, which syncs the rest of the song properly. If you previously downloaded this single, please download the new version and replace your old file. May 12 * [Single] "Indigo" released! (Same as below; remember that this is a single, and you'll have to scroll down a bit to get it.) May 11 * [Single] "Brand-New Voice" released! (Remember that this is a single, and thus you must check the singles section below the Main Pack section on the left.) May 10 Just saying real quick that I'm going to update the starter bundles within the next few days, just as soon as I can check out some new themes and/or noteskins that might make it in. How quickly I manage to get the new starter bundles out depends how fast I can get my hands on the new stuff, and if I like any of the new themes, how fast menu conversion goes (since I'll need to convert the option menu from arcade to home version type). May 9 * StepMania Stuff -> Updated the PrismRhythm theme downloads. -> Put up a new all-inclusive Noteskin Pack that now includes everything (as opposed to 2 different packs). * Simfiles -> Added the "TranceMania" pack. It has 10 songs with all 5 difficulties, but the thing is, it's all long-version trance music, so only go get it if you like long songs (we're talking 4-6 minutes). (That's why it won't be going in the Starter Bundles.) May 8 * Simfiles -> Updated the Picks Packs. Each now contains about another new 10 songs or so from the last few months. As I generally do try to offer, you have a choice between just getting the new songs & banners in an update-only zip, or to download the entire packs in case you don't already have them or you're severely outdated. There are plans to update the Starter Bundles soon, so you know; I have new grade graphics for the PrismRhythm themes. March 27 * StepMania Stuff -> Updated the PrismRhythm themes to version 9! The Starter Bundles do not have this updated version yet; if you newly-download a starter bundle, you'll need to download the updated theme (as the starter bundles presently still come with 8.3). February 18 * StepMania Stuff -> Updated the Songless and Normal Starter Bundles. * Simfiles -> Updated the Picks Packs to not be length-patched. February 17 * New Pack Release!! The full February 2013 pack is now available. The songs of my pack are all un-length-patched now. February 5 * Simfile Releases -> "Discotheque" released. February 4 * Simfile Releases -> "Super Affection" released. January 31 * New Features -> You can now listen to new songs before downloading them! See the audio player under the song's banner. -> Added some notes about tag colors; see below this News column. * Simfile Releases -> "Wing of Zero" released. -> "U" released. January 22 * Simfiles Page -> Proving once again that as little as I manage to be in touch with the community lately, I am still trying to keep up with what it's playing; thus, for those who have a penchant for punishment, I've uploaded the packs "Speedcoooore" and "Speedcoooore 2." * StepMania Stuff -> Updated the PrismRhythm themes (Normal & Belltina) to 8.3, the major (and only) change being the addition of song duration (length) information to the song select screen. (Note: If you want proper info on some stuff in my packs/compilations, you'll need to get the bulk patcher/un-patcher and run it on up to all 4 of my self-created pack offerings; see the themes' changelogs.) January 17 * StepMania Stuff -> Added the Bulk Ogg Length Patcher/Unpatcher for length-patching/unpatching entire packs at once! -> Made a fix to the name of PrismRhythm Belltina's noteskin from "EyeCandy (Belltina)" to "EyeCandyBT"; the space in its name was making StepMania incorrectly reference the original noteskin (which is really bad, since EyeCandy uses judgement-based hit-lighting, and the original colors don't mesh with the addition of Magnificent timing). All download links for appropriate elements have been replaced. January 16 * Simfile Releases -> Updated links for my main pack to DepositFiles. -> Updated links for my Singles pack to DepositFiles. -> Updated links for the Picks packs to DepositFiles. * StepMania Stuff -> Made slight changes to the PrismRhythm themes. -> Updated the Starter Bundles (all 3 of them), put them up on DepositFiles. * Sitework -> Purged old News and Simfile Releases entries. -> Removed the "Energy Theory" soundtrack entry from the Simfiles page. -> Re-worked the AOH Main and Singles packs entires on the Simfiles page. (The database will get fixed soon, I promise!) January 2 * StepMania Stuff -> There is now an alternate PrismRhythm 8 version called "Belltina Mode" that has stricter timing rules for people who want to improve their timing. See the SM Stuff page entry for details. * How-To Guide -> Added timing information to the judgements list. December 27 * Simfile Releases -> [Singles] "Twinkle x Twinkle (Cosmic Edit)" given an emergency resync. (It was quite off, as it turned out; the fault of my own laptop at the time.) December 23 Merry Christmas everyone! * StepMania Stuff -> The PrismRhythm 8 theme has been released! * Simfile Releases -> [Singles] "Twinkle x Twinkle (Cosmic Edit)" released. December 4 * [Singles] "Innocent Starter -Long Version-" fixed. (First instrumental is no longer Osu-shackled, second and outro instrumentals fixed, some hold/roll issues fixed; now flows much better in those places.) The scoring setup has thus been changed by adding those few new arrows in; old score records you had on this song should now be disregarded. -> Download Fixed Version November 17 * New Main Pack Release (Preliminary) * New Singles Pack Release (Preliminary) * Starter Bundles Updated * Picks Pack 2 Updated (for removals) * Picks Packs Re-Uploaded November 10 * [SM Stuff] Candy Notes Pack released. -> Contains 3 new noteskins and an update for EyeCandy. November 3 * [Main Pack] Galaxias released. Tags
The color of a tag indicates why you'd be interested in it. Some colors are unique (such as for Short/Long version and OP/ED designation), but for those that regard the stepchart itself:
* Orange: This aspect of the chart makes it fun or easier. * Denim Blue: This aspect of the chart is interesting. * Bright Red: This aspect of the chart is hard. * Dark Red: This aspect of the chart is really hard. StatusTotal AOH Simfiles Available: 206
Main Pack Type: 157 Singles: 51 Contact & Resources* My Facebook. You may add me (as long as I know you from somewhere, like the Shoutbox or something, I won't say no or ignore it).
* My YouTube Channel, where you can see videos of my simfiles. Make sure you read descriptions, so you know which are in my main pack and which are singles. (Also keep in mind that, obviously, I also play simfiles I didn't write.) * My MediaFire Page Contains all my individual simfiles, along with some bonus materials, neatly organized so you know what you're looking at. |
Meet Me In Person?
There's presently no chance of this. Not because I don't want to meet anyone in person, but because I don't leave the house at all at the moment.
I currently do not have a regular arcade that I go to.
Mission Statement
I am committed to writing quality stepcharts that make sense and follow after the mood of the song. I strive to be courteous, kind, and accomodating toward my fans and their requests, both online and in person. I readily accept constructive criticism and listen to suggestions for the sake of improving the quality, playability, and fun factor of my stepcharts. I will write all five difficulties for songs from a variety of musical genres so players of all skill levels and musical tastes can enjoy my work, and I will not cut corners on any difficulty level - I will release a simfile only when every chart turns out the way it was envisioned. I personally guarantee that evern simfile I release plays exactly as intended from beginning to end.
Dedication
Let there be no doubt that my work is all for my fans, and that every stepchart is written with the intention of making my fans happy and allowing them to have fun playing. I am nothing without your support; you're the reason I keep making new arrows to chase around. I appreciate your support from the bottom of my heart.
