How to import osu songs?

[Žinger Snežinger]

Hey, I downloaded osu songs and put them in the Songs folder. It did extract them in more files, but the songs aren't seen in the game. I tried this in many different ways with many songs. Is there any special way to do this?
Btw I love the game, but the notes are off sync - plz insert some tool for sync (like the drum height tool).

Thanks!

Did you make sure they are osu!mania 4k beatmaps? Placing beatmap folders in the Songs folder works for me.

Thanks man! I didn't check this!

I noticed that A LOT of osu 4k beatmaps are impossible to play... the ones that import with Challeng (7) difficulty. Should I set some other filters beside 4k?

Also the packs are not supported because the game thinks it's just one song with many difficulties :(

I would've said "sort by difficulty", but at least for me, the search results are blank then.
I don't have any other idea except for looking for them manually. The icons and difficulty names are something to pay more attention to. Normal is already pretty tough for drum playing (but a bit boring when played on a keyboard with osu itself).
Overall, there aren't that many quality maps with sane difficulties, unfortunately. Even less when you need to look for easy difficulties.

In the end I hope this game will also support converting normal osu maps like osu itself does. They are less dependent on simultaneous presses and generally easier, but I think they're a good fit for drum play that way. And there are tons more of them, obviously.

I would recommend using Stepmania songs that are made to be play on a dancepad, those usually work much better it terms of difficulty.

Thanks Dice! Will do that!
Do you maybe know of some packs or pages with more pop songs? On Stepmania site there's no search engine and from what I see there's mostly japanese anime and hardcore songs.
