You guys can make the levels easier by just changing the notes.cfg file located in
data/act1/CHARACTER NAME/config/notes.cfg
(in version 2.8.5 the only characters being cathy_e1 and zoe_e1)
-Open notes.cfg with notepad
-Use Ctrl+H to open replace window
-On Find what: put "input_type": 1, (with quotes and coma)
-On Replace with: put "input_type": 0, (with quotes and coma)
-Click Replace All
-Do the same for "input_type": 2, and "input_type": 3, and replace them with "input_type": 0,
-Now all beats will be only Note 1 (default being "Z")
