Welcome!

Who Am I?
I'm an active stepartist,
​but am also a variety streamer on Twitch
​with my own Discord server.

What's This Website?
A place where I stick all my simfiles, as well as those of
​others whose work I enjoy.

Want to Get in Touch?
You can check out my Twitch channel here,
​or join my Discord server over there on the right.
If you like my work, please, please, please tell me!
Pretty much 100% of my motivation comes from seeing or hearing that my work is being played.
I even have a leaderboard for my Discord server members.

Are you totally new to StepMania and need to get yourself started?
It's best to check out the StepMania Stuff page to get the game itself first.
It would then do you well to visit the How-To Page to learn how arrow-based rhythm games work.

Current Archives Megapack & Preview Packs

Current Archives Release

Ace's Arrow Archives (Vol. 21 Iteration)
Get It From: [🪅Google Drive] [☄️MediaFire]
The Best of Volumes 1 to 21
(April 2023 // 100 Songs // 1.75 GB // Which Songs)
(Contains revision of "Nice to Meet You, Mr. Earthling")
​
This pack is for people who want or need a limited selection.
(For example, tournaments, events, or
saving on space or folder count.)


If your collection is already using my standard packs,
you have no need for the Archives pack; you can safely ignore it.


How Do I Treat a New Archives Pack?
The Archives pack is an evolving compilation pack.
Thus, if you are using an old version of the Archives pack
and a new version comes out,
you trash the old one and completely replace it with the new one.

Latest Standard Pack
​(April 2023 // 21 Songs // 429 MB)
(Includes the November 2023 revisions.  All changes are minor.)

Standard packs are for Ace Of Arrows fans
who want to make sure they never miss anything.


There is no need to supplement standard packs with the Archives pack.
If you're switching to these from the Archives pack,
​you're deprecating your need for it, and can safely trash it.


How Do I Treat a New Standard Pack?
Standard packs all have unique content.
Thus, if you're using other standard packs I've released,
you just stick the new one in alongside the others,
as you would do with other typical packs.

Special Notes About Zenius Downloads
Although Zenius is fantastic for acting as an archive (the primary reason I'm uploading there), it has very strict limits on file types and sizes.

* Pack banners on Zenius must be DDR standard 256x80.  This is not the resolution I use, which is ITG standard 418x164, but I had to make Zenius pack banners, or there wouldn't be pack banners there.
​
* Due to file type/size constraints, some nonessential files such as videos/BGs may be missing entirely from the Zenius version of my packs.  I'm not resizing a bazillion things for them.

​For these reasons, I don't generally recommend downloading my packs from Zenius unless you've got awful internet and/or don't care if you don't get everything.
Latest Singles Megapack Release

Ace Of Arrows Singles: Memoirs
Get It From: [
🪅Google Drive] [☄️MediaFire]
Best Singles I've Ever Produced as of Volume 20
(August 2021 // 54 Songs // 566 MB)

Singles are simfiles with only one stepchart.
This pack consists of the best Singles I've made, complete with
new banners for this release.

How Do I Treat a New Singles Pack?
The Singles pack is an evolving compilation pack.
Thus, if you are using an old version of the Singles pack
and a new version comes out,
you trash the old one and completely replace it with the new one.

To be entirely clear,
you do not need to have any singles packs by any other surname!
​

These surnames are those of OUTDATED singles packs:
Simply Splendid Steps 
(July 2019)
Wholehearted Choreography (June 2014)
Taller When Determined ​(November 2013)
Aiming for Your Heart (October 2010)
Heart and Soul in Arrows (May 2010)
Songs to Stir the Soul (October 2009)

Always On Top: Pack 22 Progress Tracker
Pack 22 is in active development.
Track its progress here.


January 13, 2025
* [Info] I'm back from AGDQ 2025.  I had fun, of course, but need to get back to charting pack 22 soon; I will try to get on that when I have a reasonable amount of time to do it in.
* [Re-Upload] DDR Classics has been upgraded hugely, to version 2.0.  It contains nearly 100 new songs (the total is now 248), is now actually split into its constituent mixes, and all songs throughout the download's content now have CD titles.  The hope here is that overall and individual-mix representation is far better than it used to be.
* [Re-Uploads] All five official/quasi-official ITG packs have been re-uploaded.  It was about time to do this, honestly, since the old uploads have been up since 2018 (about 6 and a half years!).  The following adjustments have been made to the packs or their entries:
1] ITG2's songs had a number of background change cues that pointed to non-existent videos or other elements, which crashed the game, so I removed all the background changes.  (I reckon not-crashing is way more important than having BGCs that can't even do anything.)
2] Rescued the two ITG3 songs that didn't have audio.
3] Added CD titles to all songs.
* [Info] I cannot know how many downloads stuff on G-Drive gets, but I can document the MediaFire numbers:
>> ITG1: 267
>> ITG2: 222
>> ITG3: 183
>> ITGR1: 191
>> ITGR2: 229
Thanks for all those big numbers over all that time.


November 22, 2024
* [Info]
Pack 22 has all of its files in place in their folders, which means I can start actually charting the pack.  There are currently 18 songs slated to be in the pack, and a number of entries came and went to and from the list of songs I thought I'd put in over the last few months; it's possible another 2 will come along before the pack's release and make the total a nice round 20, but 18 is what we have to start with for the time being.  Track Volume 22's progress here.

October 5, 2024
* [Update]
(3:45 PM) Updated the Starter Bundle to have the very latest iteration of the PrismRhythm 19 theme.
* [Update] Managed to fix/re-insert some tidbits into my PrismRhythm theme.  None are super-important, but the details are in its description and on the new history page.  At 5:30 AM, only the standalone downloads for the Standard build are updated; I'll come up with Adept and Starter Bundle updates in the next few days.

September 29, 2024
* [Update]
Emergency hotfix for the MIGS Conversion Kit for PrismRhythm 19 Adept - actual in-game DP weights were NOT what the eval screen claimed they were for the Great and Good tiers; they were actually -50 and -80 when the eval screen claimed they were -40 and -70 (what they were supposed to be).  This information is now correct and matches.
* [Update] I decided today that I should do away with the With-Songs Starter Bundle.  I did this for several reasons, including: 1) people usually want to decide on packs to download on their own; 2) this will make it WAY easier to decide to update the No-Songs Starter Bundle (which I just did, incidentally); 3) currently my G-Drive storage is running low (another problem I will address on my own later, as I'll have to eventually anyway) and this will help save on space.
* [Update] Discovered some vertical centering issues with the ITG judgment fonts I made for the standard build of PrismRhythm 19 (as well as apparently having to just make the ITG2 font straight-up bigger), so I did a better job centering them vertically, fixed other issues, and re-uploaded.  My remakes are now the defaults for the ITG options, but as with all other fonts, the actual originals are still included in the "[Judgment Font Selections]" folder for those who wish to use them.
* [Notes] The pack 22 progress tracker is up on Google Docs, finally, though I'm not posting the link until real work actually starts (and thus there's something there to really track), as that hasn't happened yet.

September 11, 2024
* [New]
I've decided to unleash PrismRhythm 19 and its selectable judgment fonts onto the public, in both its Standard and Adept forms.  *prays nothing is found to be horribly broken even after beta tests*
* [Notes] In case it matters to anybody, just so you know, I'm aware the link colors aren't properly associated with the download sources (as I usually like to do) in several places - I have been trying to fix this in the places things are off, and have clearly had very limited success.  I don't know what Weebly changed that made it such that trying to do this doesn't really work half the time anymore.


September 10, 2024
* [Update]
Wrote another new edit for DDR Classics 1.2 - what better way to prop up the notion of "better Supernova representation" than with an edit for Centerfold, right?  That's literally the only thing that's changed since the last re-upload.

September 2, 2024
* [Update]
Hotfix in DDR Classics for two edits whose final holds were too long (A Love Like This, and Forever Sunshine), and thus not registering as completed.  Y'see, StepMania 3.95 is stupid when it comes to edits, and forcibly ends the song one measure after the very last object on an official difficulty, which means you have a hard time limit on edits.  I don't want these holds to be as short as they are now, but the way 3.95 works dictates that they must be; I don't get a choice in the matter.

September 1, 2024
* [Update]
At 3:20 in the morning, I re-uploaded DDR Classics, in order to include a single new edit on top of those I'd already newly-written for the update (The Centre of the Heart) and 3 edit re-writes (A Love Like This, Graduation, and Burning Heat).  We're still calling this 1.2 - and we're also still saying "August" because it was August when 1.2 first went up.  :p

August 30, 2024
* [Update]
I've updated the DDR Classics pack to version 1.2, which includes 25 new songs, mostly from Max 2 and Supernova 1.

November 28, 2023
* [Re-Uploads]
I've re-uploaded the Archives pack to include the revision to "Nice to Meet You, Mr. Earthling," and the Starter Bundles to update both their iteration of the PrismRhythm theme and to add the aforementioned revision to to with-songs bundle.

November 19, 2023
* [Revision] Pack 21 has been revised.  Get just the three revised .sm files here, or the main pack downloads now include the revisions.  These revisions are all considered minor, so there's no need to invalidate older scores.  They're just little, easily-fixed things that were bothering me.  Changes are detailed on the "My Simfiles" page.

May 30, 2023
* [Info] Pack 22 is, and has been, in the planning phase.  I don't usually announce that, but I think I should do so in this case because the main theme of the pack is that it will mostly consist of requests from my community members, which will make it the first such pack I've written; requests from community members Meowgister, Trav, Sui, Swiftwolf Yellowtail, and possibly even Balum will be fulfilled, alongside a few picks of my own fueled by the notion of "it's time to provide my take on some songs I apparently should've done that for long ago" - the kind of stuff I think others out there would want.  I don't know when actual production will start, as I'll be kinda busy with other stuff on and off in the next 2 weeks, and am still waiting on Swiftwolf's requests to come in.  Pack 22 won't be one to miss though when it eventually comes out, that's for sure.

May 17, 2023
* [Fix] I was forced to re-upload Picks 1 because it still contained 2 songs whose charts were written by Mandodo that are also in the now-separate Easy as Pie Collection (5, 6, 7, 8, and Bang Bang).  And here I was thinking I was thorough enough with my checks and done re-uploading stuff.  At least I was able to place some of the samples differently (some of them were rather off, which was not my fault, as they came that way, but I like to correct them whenever possible).

May 8, 2023
* [Uploads] It's time for some catching up.  It's been too long since I last checked for new packs from stepartists who write all 5 difficulties or at least make singles packs fun, so in the spirit of making sure we're keeping up, I've added newer packs​ from stepartists who regular visitors to this website would already be pretty familiar with:
* Boo.Dance #1, #2, and #3 by PeekingBoo (aka Jayce), covering him from 2019 to today (pack #3 was released this year, 2023).  He's always made good Expert charts, and these three packs are no exception.  Pack 3 also contains 2 bonus songs from the new game he's working on!
* Condor's Overly Cool and Kawaii Simfiles 5 and 6 by CondorTalon, naturally covering everything since his fourth pack that currently exists (there is no pack 7 yet, despite pack 6 being released in 2021).  These packs continue his tradition of sporting all 5 difficulty levels.


May 3, 2023
* [Fix] For consistency, I've re-uploaded the following packs because they were discovered to be length-patched (and I have made a habit of offering non-patched packs so that lengths are all correct by default):
* R21 12-Pack
* R21 Twins
* R21Freak: Bringin' It Back
* Tachyon Alpha
This does NOT change which songs are in the packs, or anything else about the contents (in fact, it hardly even changes what would be considered Long by default settings) - if you already had these packs, you do not have any need for re-acquiring them (and can in fact quite easily get the .ogg patcher/un-patcher to fix them yourself if you want).


May 2, 2023
* [Info] I do apologize for any inconvenience in reiterating the Picks Packs (since, if you had them before, now you'll need to re-download them), but I went through every single song in both packs, re-sourced all of them, made sure all possible banners and backgrounds were present, and all that.  (Sadly, some stepartists apparently hate making banners - I am looking at you, Mad Matt - but I made sure all songs that ever originally had a Bn/Bg have 'em now.)  I decided very carefully on the 6 packs I chose to grant independent status to, and which of the many packs whose contents did NOT have enough representation that it'd be reasonable to bother offering the full packs (for example, Digital Adventures, Voltage, Xynn United, Chaos in Progress 1-3, Flash Exclusives 1-3, and a bunch of others).  This took all day, and you have my reassurance I thought about this matter very​ thoroughly.
* Because of the below list item, I have re-uploaded both Picks Packs in their now-reduced forms.  This does NOT affect anything else (Archives pack, starter bundles, nothing).

* [Uploads] Several splits have occurred from the Picks Packs, and are now being offered as standalone packs:
> Piece of Cake Collection
> Easy as Pie Collection
> EuroFeet
> NewtREENo
> Tyler's Insanely Terrific Simfiles 1
> Tyler's Insanely Terrific Simfiles 2


April 22, 2023
* [Uploads] Updated the starter bundles.

April 21, 2023
* [Uploads] Updated the Archives pack.
* [Fix]
Fixed the links for R21Freak: Bringin' It Back.
* [Info] Please wait patiently as decisions are made for the Archives pack; you'll see here when it's ready to go.  The starter bundles will also be updated when the Archives pack is ready.
* [Release] Volume 21: Rekindled is released!
* [Release] Updated my theme to PrismRhythm 18.
