Hey thanks it's really helpful. I don't know why but a have an issue with chromapper. When i play my map on beat saber all my custom colors aren't there (the custom color of my blocks and lights) do you know why it does that ? (i play with the pc version 1.33.0)

I cant use w a s d what do I do

Say someone mapped a song already but you like a cover of the song more how would I go about switching out just the audio?

hello love the video, however i am having a weird issue. My custom ring rotations aren't showing up in the actual game but they look fine in the editor.

never helped

appreciate the video. can finally start tryna give Symphogear the maps it needs 😭

two things. how do i get arrow vortex working, is it the thing that allows you to see your mods? i have MBF. when i press export to quest in chromapper, it says it cant connect to quest. any idea on how to fix that?

hey thanks so much this video is very helpful i had one issue however: i can't preview the song and the audio file doesn't seem to be readable by the program (edit: nor the cover file). i am running the macOS version currently which could be the problem. i can't actually use the editor because it can't load the audio file at all.

This was exactly the push that I needed to work on my own map. I can't emphasize enough how helpful this was. The structure and the way of explaining things is really top notch. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I had absolutely no idea the lightning was so deliberate for map creators.. I always assumed Beat Saber just dynamically generated it based on the BPM and volume. I’ve gained a newfound respect for all beatmappers now, that’s crazy 😅

This definitely seems to match up with my favourite beat maps as a player, so a lot of good advice! Also I didn’t even realise you had to customise the backgrounds lights as well as the blocks 😅 I want to get into mapping so badly but it seems a lot of work!

Got to fix one aspect of your review. You don’t have to punch notes. You have to pass through them. You don’t need much movement to get a good score. Also there are maps that work really well in force. But I will admit that they are only a handful. When the notes get close together if you do quick in and out motions on each side of the notes is enough.

Wheres the best place to download song files?

10:15 what if hypothetically... im on stand alone

i have a question: how do I upload it to my oculus headset?

This is surprisingly helpful, I watched like 15 other videos on how to map beat saber songs but they did not help at all. you made everything very clear, which is something everyone else just make sound to hard when it's not. Thank you for helping me get into mapping! Please keep making helpful videos like this.

No shot you uploaded

Arrowvortex website is dead... guess i'll try again tomorrow

I can't enter the Arrow Votex website

I don’t have an export option as ogg I only have labels and midi but I can’t even click them

I dont expect you to respond to this comment but how should I get songs to make custom maps with?

i cant figure out how to make an account on beastsaber, any advice? my published map isnt showing up and im thinking thats the issue.

AAAA 100 GECS UR SO REAL FOR THAT

Nah imagine doing this map

Ok. I started with beat saber about 2.5 years ago. In the beginning it was great. Then they started to make versions with utterly horrific tracking and loss of feeling. Sometimes 100% batteries in controllers helped. Not always. Simply stated the game became not fun because it is quite unplayable often. And I played expert+. It just stopped tracking and there is no support or community. In the middle I count synthriders. At first I didn’t get it. Then I did! The scoring is less understandable in synthriders with the best, ok and poor hits but the tracking doesn’t miss. Perhaps the tracking is the source of scoring weirdness but since you don’t feel cheated by having definite hits called misses like in beat saber, it’s less an issue. For me the gameplay is incredible. I’ve maybe hit controllers but never had controllers hit my headset. Sometimes when you don’t understand the mapping accidents happen. Most of the official game maps are very flowing and there is no reason for hitting yourself even in master. The content is phenomenally great. I love the songs. All of them. Especially the swing which is stuff I don’t care for. But in the game it almost brings me to tears because it just works. They’ve added hip hop and muse and other packs. As you said customization of songs is soooo easy. There is no lack of material. The spin mode is done a million times better than beat saber. It’s the same mapping and you follow the spewing source for the angle. It’s automatic but not random. There are degrees of spin from mild to totally nutty. Mild is magnificent for a great workout. I agree with your multiplayer comments. It’s done perfectly. I’d love there to be a quick multiplayer play mode like beatsaber but you know, the games are different and each have their strengths. The community part is the best. There is a strong Facebook group with a representative from kluge in it. She literally solves every problem in the world. There are weekly parties in multilayer with all levels. The same representative is there too do you can talk with her. No- they cannot fix the world and do everything you want. But they do listen. Best saber doesn’t come a million miles close to that. They smugly say they don’t miss a note there are no problems. If you think we missed, you are wrong. It’s not nice. So all in all, synthriders has become the go to game and there’s best saber when I want to test my nerves and see whether they’ve fixed tracking issues or not. I think synthriders is an outstanding game. I’d love to get the scoring thing more understood. But you know what? It’s so much fun that this is secondary. And that’s a sign that this game really helps you and does a great job relaxing you. Isn’t that more important than producing Olympic stars? 😮 One last thing. Pity you didn’t bring up experiences. Did you try them? There is nothing like that in beat saber. There might anything like that in all of VR. It’s phenomenal.

How do I get the song I made onto my quest? I made the song but when I opened beatsaber, it wasnt there

Really helpful video dude, thank you!

tbh i just wing it

4:05

i am ma mac user, don't know to install arrow vortex and TRUST ME i tried everything, even installing it thru terminal. Are ether any other programs that do the same thing as arrow vortex?

Idk if there's something wrong with my computer but it won't let me open the editor 💀

It's crazy how concise and helpful this is, thanks for making it easy to get started. Been procrastinating getting into mapping for 500 years but finding this really helped motivate me

Can i do on mac

Hiii! do you know anyone who would make a map of a song in exchange for £££?

Hi there! I hope you see this. I have an issue when trying to save my file in ArrowVortex. It always seems to save it as a “.sm” file, whereas I’d like to use the .ogg format. When I click on “save as” after adding a 2 second delay, “.ogg” isn’t one of the file extensions available. When I try to save the file as a “.ogg” file (by selecting “All Files” when saving and adding the “.ogg” extension), it saves as a “.sm” file instead. Is there something I’m doing wrong? Any advice in layman’s terms would be greatly appreciated.

They’re not in my custom songs ?

is there a good arrow vortex alternative? the site barely loads and when i download it, it doesn't look like what it looks like in this video. i feel like i should be able to use any software to cut the music

this is epic

Wondering what will be happening?

WHA?! Is that who I think it is?

i can’t import the song to the audacity

how do i put in the song to the arrow vortex

hi this is something i saw when i open up beat saber in my quest the blue becomes red and the red becomes blue, do you now why this happens, i am using a strandalone quest 2

BIG LIAR I COULDNT EVEN DRAG MY FILE INTO ARROWVORTEX I COULDNT DO ANYTHING WITH ARROWVORTEX MY THING KEPT SAYING "COPY TO SONG FILE" I DONT EVEN HAVE A SONG FILE I HAVE A MUSIC FILE BUT I GUESS THAT ISNT A SONG BIG L - I - A - R

Thanks. Can't wait to give it a try.

You need to play it more or do some more research on this game, like Spiral mode, you played it wrong, you do it by leaning with your leags to the sides. Looks like your trying to do it with your head, and its a bad way to do it. Same with some other things, theres a way to play it even without hiting your self, think of dancing, you dont stand always straight only using hand on one side... Multiplayer is amazing, specialy with Custom songs ( they haw more then 3000 free song right now and more coming ), btw you can change your avatar :P Power Ups are like Mario Kart stuff, you get weapons and use them on others :) Btw, Beat saber isnt realy dancing, its a slashing game, Synth Riders is much more like dancing.

I rotate between Beat Saber, Synth Riders and Oh Shape. I like when I come back to a game it feels new again.

Where can i find a legal audio file?

hey so, does this require beatsaber installed on steam?

legal? nah ill pass
