I tried altough I sucked pretty bad

Not too bad, altough it could probably use some optimization for speed, but everyone has to start somewhere. I hope you continue coding 

Hah, lol.

With optimization, you mean like a setting for the speed?

Did that now

Well I meant like to optimize the code so it runs a bit faster, because looking at the game, I am certain it would be possible to have it run at least 1.5x faster (4x if the notes are pregenerated before song starts and stored in a list, altough that takes a long while to load). However it's a start and I am happy you got back in calc programming again ^^

Any hints on what parts slow it down the most?

I will probably check the code later, totally missed the previous post lol. I can't guarantee the best optimizations, though, but I'll see what I can do

If you're using random songs simfiles, I am pretty sure the Rand or RandInt( function might be at fault.

Otherwise, an idea I would have is that you check through xLIB xLIB Revolution or Super Mario Smash Dance code for how I did my rhythm games engines. They are not GH games, they're DDR-style, and uses xLIB (or Celtic III) for displaying graphics, but it might give a small idea and hopefully help. Just assume everything that is real(1 is Output( and real(4 is Disp "". Also my levels were pre-rendered and external and only 3 are avaliable so that part might be a bit different.

EDIT: screenshot of it in action (altough you need to use a browser tha supports higher than 10 frames a second in animated GIFs, like Firefox or Opera, or Quicktime Player)


But nice to see new version coming up, though

EDIT: Also if in any case it can be made faster, I would recommend still keeping it a lil slow for begginers, though, lol

Final version is up, working on something new now.

It looks nice.  Good job!
