===============================================================================
==Introduction==
ultralight is a bare-bones StepMania theme. The name was taken from a theme from
an abandoned fork of StepMania, and the theme itself is a pastiche of a few
StepMania themes (mainly PROPELA's step minor, with elements/ideas from my other
themes filling in the rest).
==Known Issues/To-Do Items==
[General]
* Online isn't done. Not by a long shot. This has a lot to do with me disliking
the current state of online gameplay in StepMania, and until that changes,
not much will be done about it.
* The Lifebar on Gameplay doesn't work in DirectX for some weird reason.
* If Event Mode is off, the theme will exhibit some errors; This is because I
play with Event Mode on [and you should too ;)]. I'll fix it eventually.
==PAQ (Possibly Asked Questions)==
Q: What's the history of this theme?
A: ultralight originally started out as the default theme for StepMania
Frankencode, a now-abandoned StepMania fork that never saw the light of day.
Some of the graphics are taken from the original theme.
Q: What's with that bar on the bottom of the title menu?
A: Test code that I ended up liking a lot. If you sit back far enough and
imagine, it looks like people walking. (to me, anyways.)
(These days, you'd probably make such an effect using ActorMultiVertex, but
back when I originally made this theme, we didn't have that.)
Q: Hey this looks like step minor somewhat...
A: Not a question, but I'll field it. ultralight wasn't originally meant to be
like that. In fact, the original design wasn't ever completed, so I decided
to take step minor's interface and use it as a guide, changing things up
when I felt like it.
Q: Is this theme compatible with StepMania 5 Tournament Edition?
A: No. A lot of changes need to be made before ultralight can be considered a
StepMania 5 TE-compatible theme. Since SM5TE is dead and/or dormant, it's
unlikely there will be a port of ultralight in the near future.

AJ did most of the work.
Typefaces used:
* Mentone by Paragraph (http://www.paragraph.com.au/)

As stated above, there is no copyright on this theme, you may do whatever you
want with it. This includes using the graphics, metrics, or Lua code.
Though it isn't required, if you use parts of ultralight in your theme, it would
be nice if you let me know. (I like StepMania theming and want to see it grow.)
