# Bemanitools 5

Version: `5.49`

[Changelog](CHANGELOG.md)

A collection of tools to run [various Bemani arcade games](#supported-games).

Bemanitools 5 (BT5) is the successor to Bemanitools 4 which introduces a big code cleanup and support for newer games.
BT5 uses a cleaner approach than BT4 did; specifically, all input and lighting is handled by emulating the protocols
spoken by the real IO PCBs, instead of replacing chunks of game code like BT4. The benefits of this approach are a more
authentic gameplay experience, and easier support for a broader range of releases from each game series.

## Pre-requisites

### Supported platforms
Our main platforms are currently Windows XP and Windows 7 which are also the target platforms on the original hardware
of those games. However, as it gets more difficult to get and maintain hardware comptible with Windows XP, this might
change in the future. Many games also run on very recent Windows 10 builds but bear with us that it's hard to keep up
with Windows updates breaking legacy software.

### Distribution contents
Check the [list of supported games](#supported-games) to grab the right files for your game. BT5 also includes
a *tools* subpackage (tools.zip) as well as the full source code (src.zip).

You will find *.md files in various sub-packages that give you further instructions for setup, usage, error information
or FAQ. We advice you to read them as your questions and concerns might already be answered by them. If not, let us
know if there is any information that you consider helpful or important to know and should be added.

### Setup and dependencies
Most (older generation) games were developed for Windows XP Embedded but should run fine on any
consumer version of Windows XP. Newer versions of Windows, e.g. Windows 7, 8 and 10, should be fine
as well. Some hooks also include fixes required to run the games on a more recent version.

Depending on the game, you also need the following dependencies installed:

* The 32-bit (x86) version of
  [Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Update](https://www.microsoft.com/en-sg/download/details.aspx?id=26999)
* The 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) versions of
  [Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013](https://www.microsoft.com/en-sg/download/details.aspx?id=40784)
* The [DirectX 9 End-User Runtimes (June 2010)](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109)
