Can you do 2 player with a keyboard?

I just got stepmania a while ago, not having PS2 or Xbox, and I was wondering whether it's possible to play the versus or couple modes with a keyboard. Hopefully I'll be getting an adapter and dance mats soon, but for now I'm stuck with keyboard.

when you get to the select style screen, hit the other enter key.

That was harsh sync. Go to options --> config key/joy mappings. In there set the keys (for 2 player I use 1player: wasd for up/left/down/right and the arrows for player 2).

Actually what Sync said is pretty revelant...it took me quite a while to realize I had to press BOTH start buttons to play doubles (which is hard as hell to learn, btw) because I assumed it would act like the home version rather than the arcade in that respect.

hehe...I almost forgot something a bit funny (not that I need to sound any more stupid

).

my friend (DMast) and I used to play Stepmania at his house every once in awhile, and we had such a huge problem with bumping into each other's hands and having keys not registering, that I went and set up asdw as a different set of arrows. too bad I set it up as the 2 player side...it didn't take long before we realized that even though I was sitting on the left and he was sitting on the right, I was playing on the two player side and he was on the one. we were too lazy to change it...it wasn't a big deal to look at the opposite screen to play, but it sure was weird to anyone that happened to see the setup. and I imagine it would make doubles pretty interesting to him, hehe.

more proof that I=lame XD

Well I guess it's a good thing that I wasn't to lazy to make sure it was right when I got my laptop. I also went back and changed it on the PC cause my sister was whining about it. The only problem with the way I have it set up is that I made the shift key the enter button and if I hit it 5 times in a row I get a message about sticky keys. That i am still to lazy to change. It only happens when I finish a song and want to do the same song and acidentally hit the enter button to go into the second options screen and don't change anything.
