Beatmap Preview System

Nekosu! Beatmap Preview System

This doc will act as a basic tutorial on how to use our beatmap preview system.

Tutorial

  • Open any beatmap link on the Nekosu website, this can be done by selecting beatmap listing in game while connected to our server or using our own beatmap listing.
  • On the beatmap page you will see a selection of buttons to the right hand side
  • If you would like a 30 second preview of the song, you can select “Song preview” and you will be taken to our beatmap mirror where you can play or download the song preview.
  • To access the beatmap preview, select the “Map preview” option on the right.
    • This will take you to the page and start downloading the beatmap of the page you were on
    • If the mapset has more than one difficulty, you can change which one is selected on our beatmap page as it currently cannot be changed through the preview site.
  • Now you are on the beatmap preview site, you can press play (after the map has loaded fully) to see a fully rendered preview of any beatmap.
    • Please be aware spinners are not currently supported.
  • You can append any map altering mods to the preview such as EZ, HR and DT.
    • If you are into mapping you can also alter the beatsnap divisor and offset.
  • In the options menu you can also alter the volume, dim and blur values as well as enabling/disabling snaking sliders, legacy slider render style and hit animations.
