Bug Reports Sticky

Please report any bugs or crashes you encounter in Padmaniacs. Detailed reports are crucial for helping me fix issues quickly.

When a crash occurs:

  • The game will attempt to show a blue recovery screen with the error message.
  • The Eruda console will also activate to display technical details.

To help me investigate, please include:

  • What you were doing when the bug happened
  • Which platform you were using (Web/itch.io, Web/GitHub, Android, or Windows)
  • What you expected to happen vs. what actually happened
  • A screenshot of the bug if possible
  • The song you were playing
  • The exact error message from the blue screen
  • The error message from the Eruda console if you saw it

For the best bug reports: If you see a Blue Screen, click any button to recover. Then, tap the floating icon to open the Eruda console. Any red error text there is extremely helpful—please provide a screenshot or copy the text.

The unstable GitHub Nightly build and the Windows NWJS package are the most likely to have issues, but please report bugs from any platform.

Thank you for helping improve Padmaniacs!

The game crashes when trying to load a custom SSC simfile.

It also softlocks when trying to import a .zip file in the editor.

Missing feature: It can’t edit an existing custom song because the game can’t recognize that an .ssc file is a song file, and the file selector can’t select a file folder.

Playing as .apk export on Android 15.

Hi!

About this:

The game crashes when trying to load a custom SSC simfile.so

The game doesn’t support SSC yet. There is some dirty code but doesn’t work

It also softlocks when trying to import a .zip file in the editor.

Tell me about this

The previous ZIP file (containing a .ssc chart file) makes the game unresponsive, except for the virtual gamepad.

The current ZIP file (containing a .sm chart file downconverted on ArrowVortex) correctly imports the song to the editor, but fails to export. It doesn’t get added to the Play -> Extra Songs list either, and trying to load the ZIP file from that menu fails as well.

What do you mean with ‘fails to export’?

  • It crashes!
  • The output file is not valid
  • The output is valid but the game can’t read it
  • All of them

The game will try to bring you the developer console if a bug happens, you’ll see a floating toolbox icon, click it and show me the error if there is anything

In song editor, when you select a BG change to edit, then choose no image, the game bluescreens.

Browser (Firefox on Windows 10).

I tried to remap my controls, but somehow, the key config menu stayed open when I selected “play”, and now the “back” button is mapped to the same key as the “confirm” button, and now the game is unplayable. Can you add a “reset key config” keyboard shortcut in the title menu?

Stepcharts with BPM gimmicks like Heart On have notes that are extremely hard to hit because they are in an area with extremely high BPM, and PadManiaX seems to have scroll-based timing windows, not time-based ones.
