The .SMzip format is generally a format used by StepMania to install and extract songs for you without having to worry about directories or anything else (generally there is only one song, theme, or announcer per .SMzip file). This actually doesn't work that well...because Stepmania installs these songs usually each with different directories, which makes trying to play your songs in the song selection screen a real hassle, ESPECIALLY if you have more than 100 files. The BEST thing you can do if you have obtained a .SMzip file is to change the file to a .zip and extract it that way (or if you wave Winzip, it will automatically detect that it is a .zip file and you can extract it that way. Once you extract it, a folder will appear, DON'T copy it over yet...open that folder up, there should be another folder containing the song name...copy THAT folder and paste it into your StepMania songs folder in one of your other pack folders (like <code>C:\\Program Files\StepMania\Songs\MySongPack\</code>). It is much more convenient in the long run. | The .SMzip format is generally a format used by StepMania to install and extract songs for you without having to worry about directories or anything else (generally there is only one song, theme, or announcer per .SMzip file).
