    Default Does SMO still exist?

    It's been a long time since I've played Stepmania. Are there still any Stepmania online servers out there anymore?

    The old smonline.us and its successor, stepmania-online.eu, have both shut down. There is no major SMO community remaining.

    maybe it'd have more people if it weren't so broken and stupid.

    You must be thinking of a different SMO server.

    smonline.us and stepmania-online.eu were neither broken nor were they stupid. They were quite fun, actually.

    Even when those were the major players, they still had a very small playerbase, but it was a fairly tight-knit one. With over 5 separate servers with almost none saving scores, it's no surprise they're all abandoned.

    My server (arnim.dyndns.org) saves scores.
    The problem is, it's levelling system is very plain, and my server always crashing itself for unknown reason

    P.S: It's now moved to kclkcl.smo.us.to

    Quite sure that the reason why SMO was taken down was because with SM5 being developed, they wanted to recode the server program to work perfectly with SM5.

    Wrong. The reason stepmaniaonline.eu is down os because lack of funds to operate the server. They have their own modified SMOnline version, too.
    Now a Dutch programmer has released an open source OpenSMO, which can be extended using a python script.
