On Linux, StepMania must run as root to save USB profile scores. Preferences are avaliable to specify caps on song file size, the number of songs that can be loaded, and loading timeout length. Songs can be loaded from profiles on USB drives. This is not a problem in the XInput interface since the arrows are registered as a DPad and each arrow is a button." Custom songs

"The XBox360 controller driver for windows has a flaw where the DirectInput backwards-compatible driver registers dance pad arrows as a hat and will not allow opposite arrows to be pressed at the same time. The DirectInput handler for Windows now supports XInput. As mentioned earlier, 5.1 remains compatible with themes and noteskins that are compatible with 5.0.12. The previous default theme is still included as part of the base StepMania package under the name "Legacy", but it will be removed on a future release. Some content, particularly songs utilizing internal BGAnimations and other scripting, may require adaptations in order to render correctly when using high-resolution themes although this issue is not exclusive to 5.1, it has greater prominence because of its use of a high-resolution theme by default.
#Stepmania shelter 480p#
While most themes (including the previous default theme) render at an internal resolution of 480p for positioning actors, Lambda uses 720p. A new noteskin of the same name is also bundled, which is inspired by the visual design of the theme. It features a cleaner visual design with a bold color scheme, a more streamlined layout, and is optimized for high definition resolutions.
