Frequently asked questions

What is OutFox Online?

OutFox Online is an online service which allows you to save/load scores remotely. It also adds leaderboards to your gameplay to see where you stand amongst the rest!

Why would I want that?

Being able to see all your scores online, comparing scores to friends/rivals, discovering new popular content, tracking progress, plenty of reasons!

My friends play with Dance mode with DDR scoring and I play with ITG, how can we rival each other?

That's okay! OutFox Online does all the scoring calculations server side. This means it doesn't matter what your friend plays, you can see any scores they got with any timing windows!

For dance, that would include:

  • Original OutFox
  • Modern DDR
  • ITG
  • ITG-EX
What about other modes? I like Pump and KBX!

Those modes all work with OutFox Online too!

I want to save scores, but I do not use the OutFox theme, can I still do that?

Support is built directly into the OutFox game engine, score saving can work right out the box on ANY theme. Score loading and showing the leaderboard only requires minimal effort to add to a theme. OFLeaderboard Actor
