# Notes
* As always, 16:9 mode only.  Don't even try it in 4:3 mode (to be fair, StepMania 5 defaults to 16:9 anyway).
* Works best with Event Mode on.
* The theme was developed and tested primarily on StepMania 5.1 Beta 2, but it should work on 5.0.12 too. It also works on certain internal development branches.

# Installation 
Firstly, you will need StepMania 5.0.12 or StepMania 5.1 Beta, which can be obtained from https://www.stepmania.com/download/

All you must do is place the contents of the folders contained within this ZIP, into the corresponding folders in your StepMania user directories. On Windows, you can get to them by entering the address %APPDATA%\StepMania 5 into the address bar in File Explorer. For more information, please see [the StepMania documentation](https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/wiki/User-Data-Locations)

The Themes folder contains the TrotMania Shrive theme.

The NoteSkins folder contains the TrotMania noteskins.  They are installed by placing them in a folder called "dance" in the folder "NoteSkins" in the same location as the Themes folder. 

# TrotMania Noteskins

The TrotMania noteskins for TM V include:

* Horseshoe - a noteskin using the Mane 6's colors.
* Horsenote - a version of Horseshoe colored in the traditional "Note" color scheme (i.e. red, blue, yellow, etc.
* Horsegroove - a version of Horsenote with a color scheme inspired by In the Groove's "Metal" and "Cel" noteskins
* Horsemaniax (a noteskin with Horsegroove's colors but a visual design influenced by blurry line-out video from Step ManiaX (in reality the noteskin I was trying to imitate was more like Cyber)
* HorseHorse - Revolution. 
* HorseHorseNote - The above but with the "Note" colors.
* Horsemetal - a new 3D-only noteskin with an even greater semblance to the In the Groove noteskins than Horsegroove.
* Equality - flat and equal. Your FC on "In Our Town" is only valid if you use this noteskin.
* Hoofprints and Toonprints - 3D versions of the original TrotMania III noteskins

New for TM V are 3D versions of the TrotMania noteskins by R.O.B.-Bot; for those unaware, the "3D+" designates that they are double-sided. The original 2D versions continue to be bundled for personal preference or if 3D noteskins hurt performance.
