So I was recently banned from bemaniso.ws for being "racist" for posting the incarceration rates of black people to prove a point. Even though it was not my intent to do so or to be racist, this visibly triggered numerous people, which in addition to my use of a pepe avatar led many people to believe I was a racist. Of course, pepe was a meme long before /pol/ turned him into a hate symbol, but this wasn't an acceptable argument to most people.
After getting banned on the discord and warned on the site for being racist(TIL facts are inherently racist), both a week after the fact and even though I hadn't done anything on the site, I got pissed. I posted in the discord thread very assertively explaining my point explaining that it was impossible for me to be racist. My rationale was entirely ignored, and I was assailed only by shitposters who were sarcastic and dismissive. Proof enough, perhaps, that I was correct and they couldn't refute it.
Of course after that I was banned from the site. So, yeah. I don't owe those fuckers anything anymore. Once I get a good place to securely upload some things in some way, I'll be distributing some AC data as well as some of the sows tools to use them. Anything here is up for grabs, sooner or later.
Keep in mind that I am not a troubleshooter. Beyond some basic know-how for normal things to do when getting these games working, I can't help you get them working. I give you the data and the tools, and after that you should consider yourself on your own. If you encounter a problem or problems, you'll have to find ways to fix them on your own or ask other people here who have gotten that data working. I may be able to provide slightly better support for Sound Voltex and maybe a bit of Pop'n since those are games I've actually played a little of, but that's about it.
Generic rules: When using data, always keep a backup of the raw files after you download them. If you fuck your install up or it somehow fucks itself up(this can happen with updates), this is your only way to restore the raw version of the game and work on getting it working again from there.
After you extract/copy your data to where you want to be your use copy, always go to the properties of the folder and uncheck read only. Let windows change the file properties and apply the settings.
Game launchers must run with admin privileges. Go to the exe's file properties and check the checkbox next to run as administrator under the compatibility tab. Launch the game with gamestart.bat, not the launcher file. If you try to launch the game using the executable it will fail. Additionally, the gamestart.bat allows you to insert some options such as mouse capture for Sound Voltex(-c, so you don't have to worry about windows popping up when your mouse scrolls across your task bar if playing in windowed mode; SVSE and similar controllers generally use the mouse as input so this can be a minor issue if you play with one)and windowed mode(-w), for obvious reasons. Insert these in the gamestart.bat file using a text editor after the game's primary DLL file, e.g.:
@launcher -k sdvxhook.dll soundvoltex.dll -w -c
Sometimes playing in windowed mode can cause issues or cause delay. If you experience problems try reverting to fullscreen–the games were designed to be played that way. This can, unfortunately, be a problem with some games as if they cannot display at the resolution they were designed to be played in they will crash. Turning your 1080p monitor sideways is a good option sometimes, as the resolution of some of the games will not fit on a 1080p monitor if it is in it's default rotation.
Make sure your monitor is running at exactly 60hz. Running at anything else can cause the game to run faster or slower or cause major input delay problems.
Some newer versions of windows will block some files by default thinking them dangerous. The game will not run or run properly if anything is blocked. Go to the properties of each file in the main directory of your install(where the launcher is)and ensure that nothing is blocked. If anything is, click the unblock button. Remember to re-check any new files you put in there(such as the bemanitools files which are needed to crack the game; you will be unable to run them without this unless you have an actual cabinet).
All games must run with the proper set of bemanitools. Extract the right set of tools(ex: sdvx.zip tools in bemanitools 4 is for sound voltex)to your install's main directory before attempting to run, or you will fail a network check and the game will not run. Sometimes additional files may be required such as a new libacio.dll file for Sound Voltex to properly run Gravity Wars Season 2… I think, anyway. I may or may not have access to those files anymore depending on what I have in my tools folder. I do have the libacio for SDVX, though.

No idea. I don't see anything besides 2014 on the mon.im patcher, so I don't know if there is. You might have to use a hex editor and figure it out yourself. Try asking people who know about it what the hex value you're looking for is precisely? That might help you if you search for it.

Thanks for that. I got X2 unlocked by PSUN - only needed once. X3 onwards always needed PSUN to unlock.
Curious what did you look for to unlock? I look at the DLL files and I see ssq files loaded….
I'm interested in the options like other speed modifiers and pro timing (fast/slow message judgement). As well I'm trying to work out how to get service button to credit.

Pardon my frequent questioning (especially hard ones) but does anyone here have any idea on why on ddr 2013/2014 when you play on songs with stage bga's the stage doesn't seem to load.
As you can see here I'm playing Shiny World but it doesn't play on the Replicant D-Action stage but instead a generic stage. This issue does not happen on X2 or X3 but does anyone at least have any idea on why this happens on 2013 and 2014. I'm trying to figure it out but I might need your guys input. Some of the fullscreen bga's work properly so that's nothing to worry about.

I can't seem to find it from the usual site (where its available coinstripped)… Is the coin code actually removed or is it disabled / NOP / 90?
Got DDR X3 (older version without KAC tracks) but not the others (X2, 2013, 2014).

Tsugidoki isn't available in that version either, the 2012050800 version of X3 you mentioned
– lol. I am the uploader for that particular version. (And there's that lovely little banned icon next to my name too, so yeah.)
In X2 & X3, huge chunks are removed (that should give you a hint of where it is.)
In 2013 & 2014, they are 90'd, and only a few characters long.
I also have newer 2014 data: 2016030100
I have these because I run an arcade.
Hope this info helps.

Yes, and no. Make It Better is a default song and unlocking the table in this fashion (this just does the hex edits for you, check the source code), makes that one song disappear.

Thanks for the upload and info. Still new to IDA pro and PE Explorer.. Scratched my head searching for coin, slot, event, credit hoping it will get somewhere.
Ultimately I should just compare the versions of X3 I have and I should figure it out (havan't yet).
It isn't really necessary I succeed in adding coin service (got minimaid and I've removed the coin mech), but I'd assume it will give me insight to unlocking songs and courses, which had already been done by some kind person.
>>8174
will try looking at source and see how it aligns with songs. There has to be a hit on Make It Better.

I don't want to flat out give away the coin code but it's not something you'd be able to reconstruct I'll say this much.
Fun fact, the minimaid has NO coin support in it AT ALL, it was sadly built that way. The only way you're going to have coin proper in a cab is with a Chimera, or a Dragon if you're extremely lucky.
I'll be more than happy to answer questions that don't involve straight up giving out the coin code, I can't sever my connections.

As for Make It Better, basically anytime the 2014 folder gets added back (since it's gone by default when on a server with no unlocks/local server/maintenance server), it basically steals that song place for some reason, I basically started with a clean slate, unlocking 1 song by hand at a time, and as soon as I had a single song in the 2014 folder, Make It Better was gone. It's obviously irrelevant because of Ace, but because I like to have all versions of the game up and running, I would like to restore it without relying on a third party server.

I was getting the idea minimaid doesn't have coin support as latest bemanitools has service button disabled.
I also believed the physical coin counter in the cab needed some diode and it's relay could damage boards (either minimaid of jpac). That's the reason I removed my coin mech.
I did NOP some function (in DDR X2) and it completely disabled all input - lol

I've got DDR2014 to run, but there's only a black screen and after that, the game crashes to desktop. How do I fix this? I downloaded the game from https://cloud.mail.ru/public/Drke/ufb5S5Fhe/KONAMI/Konami%20Bemani%20Arcade%20Hardware/KONAMI%20BEMANI%20PC%20HARDWARE/Dance%20dance%20revolution%202014%20(arcade)/ (because MEGA has a 5GB limit)

This is the problem in question. The screen is stretched to 1360x768 (or 1366x768?), and there's a black screen near the bottom left corner.

DDR 2014 that I possess is operating normally.
However, the color of the arrow object is strange.
I also possess X3 and there is similar (see image).
This shot was taken with the "NOTE" option.
Red should be white.
Blue should be red.
And yellow should be blue.
Is there a way to fix this?

yeah the issue for that is mostly because the bemani pc uses amd radeon graphics for it's games so running it on other gpu's (nvidia or intel) will give you these grey looking arrows.

No idea. Different versions of games aren't generally inter-compatible with tools and such, also different downloads often have different data stripped out/layed in. Try downloading the one I uploaded and be patient for it to download. I know dealing with the limit sucks, but it's the best option overall. Mega won't delete anything and I can keep TOR'ing to get free accounts.
>>8233
Using an AMD card would probably work, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was a fix out there somewhere. It sounds like a fairly simple problem that wouldn't take much to fix if you knew what you were doing. Where that fix might be if it did exist, I don't know, though. I'd imagine sows, at the least.
>>8240
I had every right to throw that tantrum, because getting banned was purely bullshit. They didn't even try to contest my points. All that happened was I got smugged at and banned again. If they won't justify themselves, it's equivalent to they can't justify themselves.
