chore: Update changelog for 5.44 release

Using the right combination of "flags", this addresses the
SQ-INIT error on 10th style as well as forces 10 to 13 into
using the D01 operation mode. The latter follows the approach that
14+ is also using the best/latest IO type supported (IO2 in that
case). Expecting that gameplay experience benefits from more
optimized/better maintained code paths.

Make 10 operate in D01 IO mode which forces security to using
the D01 dongle from a D01 dedicab setup. The alternative would
be using a C02 dongle from a C02 upgraded cabinet.

More details to follow in another commit with a dev journal
entry.

 # Contributing
-Please have a look at the issue board about what's currently going on. If you see an issue that is not assigned yet and
-that you can and want to work on, please leave a comment to reach out to one of our developers. You can also ask
-questions and discuss the issue.
+This document outlines different types of contributions and how YOU can help us to improve the
+project. Read it, as it provides guidelines that are there to help you and the maintainers.
 
-# Bug reports
-Please check if the bug was already reported by searching the existing issues. If it does, feel free to leave a comment
-that you also have this issue. Add additional information, screenshots, log files etc. The more information and details
-we have, the easier it might get to solve the issue.
+## Reporting and discussions: Issues section on gitlab
+In order to avoid having to manage ongoing discussions and bug reports on different communication
+channels, e.g. forums, messangers or other closed groups, we ask everyone to treat the issue
+section on gitlab as the place to open their relevant discussions and bug reports regarding the
+project.
 
-When creating new issues, use our template for reporting bugs. It tells you what kind of information we need.
+The maintainers of the project do not have the time nor motivation to micromanage on the various
+channels and enter all data here to have it collected. This is a simple task that *ANYONE* can do 
+allowing the maintainers and developers to spend their time on the codebase.
 
-# Pull requests: bugfixes, new features or other code contributions
-Pull requests are welcome! May it be a PR to an already known issue or a new feature that you consider as a valuable
-contribution, please open a PR. If you want to start working on a new feature that was proposed in an issue, yet, it
-is recommended to reach out to the developers about this, first, to discuss if this contribution is valuable to the
-project. Otherwise, you might waste your time on implementing something that won't make it into master.
+## Bug reports
+Follow these steps when reporting bugs to ensure you provide all information we *always* need and
+make your report valuable and actionable.
 
-Please read our [development guidelines](doc/development.md) as they contain valuable information that your contribution
-meets our standards. 
+1. On the bemanitools repository, go `Issues` on the left-hand sidebar.
+1. Use the search function to check if there is an already open issue regarding what you want to
+report
+    1. If that applies, read the open issue to check what's already covered regarding the bug
+    1. Provide additional information or things that are missing. Upload your log files,
+    screenshots, videos etc. Be careful to remove sensitive information like PCBIDs
+    1. Give a thumbs up to the issue to show you are interested/affected as well
+1. If no existing issue avilable, create a new one
+1. Come up with a descriptive title
+1. **USE OUR BUG REPORTING TEMPLATE**: Pick it by selecting `Bug` on the `Description` section
+1. Follow the sections and their instructions provided by the template and fill them in. All fields
+are mandatory to provide a comprehensive report if not stated otherwise
+1. When finished, submit the issue
 
-Fork the upstream repository and start developing on your personal fork. Make sure to test your changes with games that
-are affected by them. Pay attention to the target platform/hardware you are testing on! This is valuable information
-that should be included in the PR.
+## Pull requests: bugfixes, new features or other code contributions
+Pull requests are welcome! May it be a merge request to an already known issue or a new feature that
+you consider as a valuable contribution, please open a MR.
 
-Once you completed your implementation, open a pull request on the upstream repository to propose your changes. We will review your contribution and get back to you about any changes or when we merge them to our upstream repository. Your changes, once approved, will be included in the next release.
+**!!! Maintaining documentation by adding new or improving existing documentation is as important as
+code !!!**
 
-# Roadmap 
-No concrete roadmap or timeline exists. We want to continue adding support for new games as well as old games (some of
-the old games supported by BT4 are not supported, yet).
+If you want to start working on a new feature that was proposed in an issue, yet, it is recommended
+to reach out to the active developers about this, first, to discuss if this contribution is valuable
+to the project. Otherwise, you might waste your time on implementing something that won't make it
+into master.
+
+Please read our [development guidelines](doc/development.md) as they contain valuable information
+that your contribution meets our standards. This is not meant to annoy people but ensures
+consistency that the project stays maintainable for everyone.
+
+Steps for contributing to the repository using a merge request:
+1. If you are new to git, take a bit of time to learn the basics which are very simple, e.g. Google
+for "git tutorial for non-programmers"
+1. Fork the upstream repository (Fork button on the top right on the main page of the repository)
+1. You can start editing files like documentation easily inside gitlab which might be the prefered
+option for many non-coders
+1. Clone your fork to your local machine and start working on stuff
+1. Ensure you push your changes to your fork on gitlab
+1. When done, go to the `Merge Requests` section on the left sidebar of the upstream repository
+1. Hit the `New merge request` button
+1. Select the `master` branch as the source branch
+1. Select whatever branch you worked, likely `master` if you didn't change that, as the target
+branch
+1. Hit `Compare branches and continue`
+1. Provide a descriptive title of what your change is about
+1. **USE OUR MR TEMPLATES**
+    1. If you submit a bugfix, use the `Bugfix` tempalte and fill in the sections
+    1. If you submit a new feature, use the `Feature` template and fill in the sections
+1. If you submit some minor fixes or documentation improvements, there is no template for that.
+Please provide a expressive description what you did and *why* you did that
+1. If any of your changes are tied to one or multiple issues, link them in the description
+1. When done, hit `Submit merge request`
+
+The maintainers will take a look at your submission and provide their feedback. The intention of
+this process is to ensure the contribution meets the quality standards. Please also see this is
+a learning opportunity, especially with your first contribution, if a lot of comments and change
+requests are being made. The maintainers are open to discuss their suggestions/feedback if
+reasonable feedback is given back to them.

+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.
 
-# Contributions
-Please refer to the [dedicated documentation](CONTRIBUTING.md).
+### 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.
 
-# Development
-## Architecture
+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)
+
+See also

+# ddrhook
+
+ddrhook is a collection of hook libraries for "Dance Dance Revoluion" providing
+emulation and various patches to run these games on non BemaniPC hardware and
+newer Windows versions.
+
+The hook libraries must be bootstrapped either using [inject](../inject.md) or
+[launcher](../launcher.md) depending on the version you want to run. Further
+instructions are given in dedicated readme files for each ddrhook version
+(see below).
+
+## Versions
+
+ddrhook comes in a few different flavors. The game and its engine changed over
+the years. Some game versions might require patches/parameters enabled which
+others don't need or have different AVS versions. Here is the list of supported 
+games:
+
+* [ddrhook1](ddrhook1.md): X, X2 (US/EU regions)
+* [ddrhook2](ddrhook2.md): X2 (JP region), X3 vs. 2ndMIX, 2013, 2014, A
+
+When building bemanitools, independent packages are created for each set of games
+which are ready to be dropped on top of vanilla AC data dumps. We recommend
+using pristine dumps to avoid any conflicts with other hardcoded hacks or
+binary patches.
+
+## How to run
+
+To run your game with ddrhook, you have to use the inject tool to inject the
+DLL to the game process. `dist/ddr` contains bat scripts with all the
+important parameters configured. Further parameters can be added but might not
+be required to run the game with default settings.
+Further information on how to setup the data for each specific version are
+elaborated in their dedicated readme files.
+
+## Command line options
+
+Add the argument *-h* when running inject with ddrhook to print help/usage
+information with a list of parameters you can apply to tweak various things.
+
+## ddrio API
+
+Available implementations that can be swapped out depending on which kind of
+IO hardware you want to use:
+
+* `ddrio`: Default implementation supporting keyboard, mouse and USB
+game controllers
+* ddrio-mm: Support Minimaid custom interface
+* [ddrio-smx](ddrhook/ddrio-smx.md): Support for StepManiaX dance platforms

+# ddrhook1
+
+## Supported games
+
+The following games are supported with this hook library:
+
+* Dance Dance Revolution X
+* Dance Dance Revolution X2 (US/EU regions)
+
+The games must be bootstrapped using [inject](../inject.md).
+
+## Data setup
+
+Ensure your folder with your unpacked data looks like this:
+
+* `conf`
+* `data`
+* `ddr`
+* `ddr_YYYYMMDDRR` where `YYYYMMDDRR` corresponds to different datecodes of
+  different versions. Multiple folders of these possible
+
+`DDR.exe` files should be in `ddr` and `ddr_YYYYMMDDRR` folders.
+
+Unpack the distribution package `ddr-11.zip` into one of the folders containing
+a `DDR.exe` file. We recommend using the one with the latest datecode which
+denotes the latest version of the game including bugfixes etc.
+
+`gamestart-11.bat` as well as `ddrhook1.dll` are now expected to be located
+in the same folder as (one) `DDR.exe` file.
+
+## Running
+
+Run `gamestart-11.bat` as administrator. For the US version of the game, run
+`gamestart-11-us.bat` instead. This can be done by either by double
+clicking or running it from `cmd.exe`. The latter is recommended to have
+any debug output kept on screen after closing the game.
+
+This will run [inject](../inject.md) with the `ddrhook1.dll`. On first run,
+if you don't have a conguration file, e.g. `ddr-11.conf`, available in the
+same folder, a default one will be created and the game exits. Simply re-run
+`gamestart-11.bat` again.
+
+## Configuration ddrhook
+
+The hook library can be configured via cmd arguments or a configuration file.
+The latter is generated (*ddr-11.conf* in the same directory) on the first 
+start of the game using the gamestart-XX.bat file. It contains default values
+for all available parameters and comments explaining each parameter. Please
+follow the comments when configuring your setup.
+
+Add the argument *-h* when running gamestart-XX.bat 
+(e.g. *gamestart-XX.bat -h*) to print help/usage information with a list of 
+all available parameters. Every parameter can be either set as command line
+argument or using a configuration file.
+
+To set a parameter from the command line, just add it as an argument after
+the bat file like this
+
+```
+gamestart-11.bat -p gfx.windowed=true
+```
+
+The syntax for the "key=value" is the same as in the config file. Make sure
+to have a pre-ceeding "-p" for every parameter added.
+
+However, if a parameter is specifed in the configuration file and as a command
+line argument, the command line argument overrides the config file's value.
+
+## Configure USB memory cards and edit data
+
+You can setup actual USB thumb drives mapped to a drive letter, e.g. `E:\` for
+player 1 and `F:\` for player 2, or just have them point to any local directory,
+e.g. `usbmem_p1` and `usbmem_p2`.
+
+Set-up your folder mappings in the
+[conf file or via command line args](#configuration-ddrhook) like follows:
+
+* Enable USB memory data emulation: `ddrhook1.usbmem_enabled=true`
+* Set P1 USB memory data path pointing to local folder `usbmem_p1` next to `DDR.EXE`:
+  `ddrhook1.usbmem_path_p1=usbmem_p1`
+* Set P1 USB memory data path pointing to local folder `usbmem_p2` next to `DDR.EXE`:
+  `ddrhook1.usbmem_path_p1=usbmem_p2`
+* Have/create a subfolder called `DDR_EDIT` on any location/USB drive you want to use
+* Name your edit data file either `DDR_EDIT_J.DAT` (for JP version) or `DDR_EDIT_U.DAT`
+  (for US version) and place it in the `DDR_EDIT` directory.
+
+For the example setup above, the full relative path of the edit file should be
+`usbmem_p1\DDR_EDIT\DDR_EDIT_J.DAT` for player 1.
+
+Note that USB memory cards are not detected by the game and the game stays
+silent about that if they do not contain edit data, your path mapping does not resolve
+or you misplaced or named your edit data file incorrectly.
+
+## Grey and glitchy arrows
+
+This is a known issue with many GPUs, typically non-Radeon GPUs.
+
+There is currently not patch available in Bemanitools for that. We assume this is an
+issue with incompatible shader code.
+
+There are solutions to hard-patch the code available elsewhere.
+
+## Troubleshooting and FAQ
+
+### Issues with background videos (not) playing
+
+The game expects you have the `CLVSD.ax` file registered for decoding videos.
+
+Grab the `CLVSD.ax` file and go to *Start* > *Run* > enter `regsvr32 clvsd.ax` and
+execute. Make sure to run as Administrator, otherwise you will get errors due to
+invalid permissions.
+
+### Game crashes during boot
+
+If you have played a newer version of DDR, e.g. DDR 2014+, you might have the
+`k-clvsd.dll` codec registered which crashes DDR X and likely X2 (EU/US) as well.
+
+Unregister `k-clvsd.dll`, e.g. `regsvr32 /u k-clvsd.dll`, and
+[registering `CLVSD.ax`](#issues-with-background-videos-not-working).
+
+Note that `CLVSD.ax` will likely hang any newer/more recent DDR versions on startup
+and require you to use the `k-clvsd.dll` that came with the respective version
+instead. See [this section](ddrhook2.md#video-codecs-for-background-videos) for
+further details.
+
+### Black screen/render window without a response
+
+This symptom might have many causes, here is a list of known issues and what can be done:
+
+* If not done already, try installing
+  [DirectX Redist (June 2010)](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109)
+* If you have an integrated/second GPU, ensure it is disabled
+* External (USB) audio devices could cause issues. Ensure you are running on on-board/integrated
+  sound cards and unplug any external audio devices.
+* [Disable fullscreen optimizations](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/demystifying-full-screen-optimizations/):
+  Right click on `DDR.exe`, *Properties* > *Compatibility* > *Disable fullscreen optimizations*
+* Check if you can run `DDR.exe` without Bemanitools by simply launching it. It should at least
+  boot into a startup screen. If that isn't even possible, then it's likely not an issue with
+  Bemanitools. Note that your data path needs to be `D:\HDX` for that to work though.

+Note that different builds of the same hook library are required to run the
+different versions. See different distribution packages, e.g. `ddr-12.zip`,
+`ddr-13.zip` etc.
+
+Depending on the game version, earlier versions are bootstrapped using
+[inject](../inject.md) while later versions require [launcher](../launcher.md).
+
+## Setup A20+
+
+### Data and folder structure
+
+The following assumes you are using vanilla and unpacked/decrypted data. Copy/unpack the data
+to a destination of your choice. Expect to have the following root folder structure:
+
+```
+arkdata
+com
+data
+dev
+modules
+prop
+```
+
+* Copy the contents of `modules` to the root folder that the dll-files are next to the folders
+  `arkdata`, `com`, etc.
+* Unpack the contents of `ddr-14-to-16.zip` to the root folder. `luncher.exe` should be located
+  next to `arkdata`, `com` and all the dll-files
+
+#### Configuring eamuse settings
+
+You need to create a `prop/ea3-config.xml` configuration file which provides properties for
+connecting to a network of your choice (and allows the game to boot).
+
+Take the `prop/eamuse.xml` as a base and make a copy of it called `prop/ea3-config.xml`.
+
+Add the software identifier as a child to the `<ea3>` parent node:
+
+```xml
+<soft>
+  <model __type="str">MDX</model>
+  <dest __type="str">J</dest>
+  <spec __type="str">A</spec>
+  <rev __type="str">A</rev>
+  <ext __type="str">2022020200</ext>
+</soft>
+```
+
+Replace the identifiers according to the version you are using.
+
+Add your PCBID as a child to the `<ea3>` parent node:
+
+```xml
+<id>
+  <pcbid __type="str">00010203040506070809</pcbid>
+  <hardid __type="str">00010203040506070809</hardid>
+</id>
+```
+
+Replace the values accordingly with your actual PCBID registered with your target network.
+
+Add network settings (note this might already exist, replace existing or delete old one) as a child
+to the `<ea3>` parent node:
+
+```xml
+<network>
+  <sz_xrpc_buf __type="u32">102400</sz_xrpc_buf>
+  <ssl __type="bool">0</ssl>
+  <services>http://eamuse.konami.fun/service/services/services/</services>
+</network>
+```
+
+Replace the properties accordingly with the settings provided by your network provider, e.g. the
+URL, further settings like ssl etc.
+
+## Running
+
+Run `gamestart-XX.bat`, where `XX` corresponds to the version of the game you
+want to run, as administrator. For the US version of X2, run
+`gamestart-12-us.bat` instead. This can be done by either by double
+clicking or running it from `cmd.exe`. The latter is recommended to have
+any debug output kept on screen after closing the game.
+
+This will run [inject](../inject.md) or [launcher](../launcher.md), depending
+on the version of the game, with the `ddrhook2.dll`. On first run, if you don't
+have a conguration file, e.g. `ddr-12.conf`, available in the same folder, a
+default one will be created and the game exits. Simply re-run `gamestart-XX.bat`
+again.
+
+## Configure USB memory cards and edit data (DDR X2)
+
+You can setup actual USB thumb drives mapped to a drive letter, e.g. `E:\` for
+player 1 and `F:\` for player 2, or just have them point to any local directory,
+e.g. `usbmem_p1` and `usbmem_p2`.
+
+Set-up your folder mappings in the
+[conf file or via command line args](#configuration-ddrhook) like follows:
+
+* Enable USB memory data emulation: `ddrhook1.usbmem_enabled=true`
+* Set P1 USB memory data path pointing to local folder `usbmem_p1` next to `DDR.EXE`:
+  `ddrhook1.usbmem_path_p1=usbmem_p1`
+* Set P1 USB memory data path pointing to local folder `usbmem_p2` next to `DDR.EXE`:
+  `ddrhook1.usbmem_path_p1=usbmem_p2`
+* Have/create a subfolder called `DDR_EDIT` on any location/USB drive you want to use
+* Name your edit data file either `DDR_EDIT_J.DAT` (for JP version) or `DDR_EDIT_US.DAT`
+  (for US version) and place it in the `DDR_EDIT` directory.
+
+For the example setup above, the full relative path of the edit file should be
+`usbmem_p1\DDR_EDIT\DDR_EDIT_J.DAT` for player 1.
+
+Note that USB memory cards are not detected by the game and the game stays
+silent about that if they do not contain edit data, your path mapping does not resolve
+or you misplaced or named your edit data file incorrectly.
+
+## Troubleshooting and FAQ
+
+### Video codecs for background videos
+
+For DDR 2014 and newer (maybe also earlier?), you need to register `k-clvsd.dll` and
+`xactengine2_10.dll` to make background videos work. These files are included with
+respective versions of the games.
+
+Run the following commands either from a command line (`cmd.exe`) or from 
+*Start* > *Run*. Adjust the path to files accordingly pointing to the correct files.
+
+* Register `regsvr32 D:\MDX\contents\k-clvsd.dll`
+* Register `regsvr32 D:\MDX\contents\xactengine2_10.dll`
+
+The `gamestart-XX.bat` scripts should already take care of this by executing the listed commands
+when launched.
+
+Note: The one that comes with IIDX will hang DDR at startup. The opposite is not true:
+IIDX works just fine with this CLVSD.
+
+### Laggy audio
+
+If you're running on Windows XP, go to the sound devices control panel, select your
+sound card, click Advanced Options and turn Hardware Acceleration down to basic. This
+will make the audio much less laggy..

+# Using SMX pads with BemaniTools (DDR Ace and higher)
+If you are looking to use StepManiaX pads with DDR, these are supported **natively** for Gen 1 through Gen 5.(And theoretically beyond!) Steps and info below
+
+## Step-by-Step
+1. Ensure that you have the latest `SMX.dll` copied to your contents folder. The easiest way to get this is to download and install the latest SMX Config program on [StepManiaX.com](https://data.stepmaniax.com/docs/SMXConfigInstaller-2020-04-03-01.exe). `SMX.dll`'s default install location is `C:\Program Files (x86)\SMXConfig`
+2. After bemanitools has been copied to your contents folder, rename the regular `ddrio.dll` to something like `ddrio-orig.dll`.
+3. Rename `ddrio-smx.dll` to `ddrio.dll`.
+4. Use the config tool to set up the usual stuff.(cards, network, etc.) Be sure to map menu, test, service, and start buttons to your keyboard or other controllers. You **cannot** map SMX panels as joystick inputs.
+5. Start the game. If everything works properly, the game will boot and your panels will light up when stepped on during gameplay and song selection.
+
+## Important Things
+* Pad panel inputs (UDLR on P1 and P2) are mapped automatically. If you've purchased a single pad from StepManiaX, this jumper is installed and will set your pad to P2 by default. If you want to change to P1, you'll need to open up your pads and remove this jumper in the [MCU box](https://data.stepmaniax.com/docs/Stage%20-%20Gen%205%20Manual%20Rev1.pdf).
+* Panel colors set in the SMX config tool are not used. Colors are set internally by Bemanitools.
+* If you get a warning about setlights2 when starting the game, your `SMX.dll` is likely out of date. Make sure you've downloaded the latest version of the StepManiaX config tool from stepmaniax.com and have copied the `SMX.dll` to your contents folder.

+# Unicorntail
+
+Unicorntail is a hook library to run the DDR games on a hybrid type of hardware referred to as a
+"Chimera" or "Unicorn". Compared to a "Dragon", which refers to the official stock hardware by
+Konami, a Chimera mixes the P3IO board from a PCB used with GF&DM V4-V8, Jubeat, Jubeat Ripples or
+Jubeat Knit with the motherboard from a GF&DM XG, XG2 or XG3 PCB, or a Reflec Beat PCB.
+
+Actual build instructions for such hardware are out of scope here.
+
+## Context
+
+Dragon PCBs are hard to come by compared to finding the parts for a Chimera PCB.
+
+A Chimera PCB however is different in many aspects to the Dragon PCB and requires the use of the
+`unicorntail.dll` hook library.
+
+The Dragon's P3IO has two serial ports that the regular P3IOs do not, and one of these serial ports
+is used to communicate with the card readers. Note that these are actual serial ports driven
+directly by the P3IO microcontroller, these are NOT just passed through to the motherboard like the
+proprietary COM1 and COM2 connectors. Unicorn Tail intercepts serial port IO commands being sent to
+the P3IO and redirects them to COM2 instead, since COM2 is unused on SD cabinets (on HD cabinets it
+connects to a second ACIO bus which drives the extra lighting glitz like the light spikes and maybe
+the LED strip).
+
+## Drivers
+
+You need the P3IO driver installed on your target system. These can be acquired from an actual stock
+HDD or grabbed from
+[bemanitools-supplements](https://dev.s-ul.net/djhackers/bemanitools-supplement/-/blob/master/gfdm/p3io/README.md).
+
+## Setup and run
+
+Edit the `gamestart.bat` file that you are using and append `unicorntail.dll` to the list of hooks,
+e.g.:
+
+```shell
+launcher.exe -H 33554432 -K unicorntail.dll arkmdxp3.dll %*
+```
+
+If you want to use any ddrhook library in addition, you have to have the hooks in the right order
+to make everything work correctly, e.g.:
+
+```shell
+launcher.exe -H 33554432 -K unicorntail.dll -K ddrhook2.dll arkmdxp3.dll %*
+```

+# ACIO BIO2 IIDX package dump
+Package dump excerpt of the init sequence of a original Konami IIDX BIO2 with sub IO connected.
+This was used to identify a missing piece of information that needs to be communicated to the BIO2
+for IIDX to initialize the sub IO correctly.
+
+The dump was cut off after two polls as the sequence just keeps on repeating from that point on.
+
+## Findings for problem to solve
+With the previous implemention of the BIO2 driver, which was created off references of SDVX KFCA,
+a BIO2 used with IIDX and the sub IO (to upgrade older C02, IO2 cabinets) connected didn't
+initialize properly. This resulted in no inputs/outputs other than 14 keys working.
+
+The problem identified was a different byte, exact meaning not known, that is sent in
+[exchange 4](#exchange-4-ac-io-cmd-clear). Instead of `0x3B` from the SDVX KFCA based
+implementation, it needs to be set to `0x2D`.

+# Beatmania IIDX 10th Style - D01 IO boot code and security init
+
+Date: 2023-04-03
+Author: icex2
+
+Documenting decompiled and reverse engineered code snippets from the D01 JAE `bm2dx.exe`. These
+helped me figuring out the two different security boot modes the game supports.
+
+In summary, it supports booting with the C02 IO with a C02 black dongle and a D01 IO board with
+a D01 dongle. No other combination is valid because they didn't make sense back then. You either
+had an upgraded old style/twinkle cabinet to C02 (GEC02) or you bought a new dedicated cabinet
+(GQD01). With 10th style supporting the old C02 dongle, it appears that all owners of a C02 cabinet
+with IO board and C02 dongle received a free software update/HDD. This might make sense considering
+the short life span of C02 and the game being super buggy, especially in earlier/initial revisions.
+
+The game expects the following "configurations" from bemanitools:
+
+* Booting as upgraded C02 with free D01 upgrade
+  * `sec.boot_version=GEC02   `
+  * `sec.boot_seeds=0:0:1`
+  * `sec.black_plug_mcode=GEC02JAA`
+  * "D01 IO pin" on IO board not active
+* Booting as dedicated 
+  * `sec.boot_version=GEC02   `
+  * `sec.boot_seeds=0:1:1`
+  * `sec.black_plug_mcode=GQD01JAA`
+  * "D01 IO pin" on IO board ACTIVE
+
+All the above was derived from reading and understanding the documented code excerpts below.

+## Creating releases
+For developers to create official releases with major and minor versioning:
+1. Ensure that all everything you want to have for this release is merged into master.
+1. Create a [changelog](CHANGELOG.md) based on aggregating and summerizing commit messages of
+whatever got added starting from the tag of the current version to the current head of master.
+Commit that changelog and push to master.
+1. Create a tag with the next version number, e.g. for 5.28:
+```bash
+git tag v5.28
+```
+1. Push the tag upstream:
+```bash
+git push origin v5.28
+```
+1. Wait for the CI pipeline to finish building the release and check if everything's ok.
+1. On GitLab, go to "Tags" in the repository, click on the commit ID below the tag in the list you
+just created.
+1. Click on the "Pipelines" tab and click on the download button on the right and on "Download
+release artifacts".
+1. Rename the downloaded zip to "bemanitools-v5.28.zip" and the replace v5.28 with the version
+you want to release.
+1. Upload the release.
+1. For publishing the release, create a post with the following contents:
+```

+# Bemani Game Error Codes
+
+This document collects the various error codes that are know across the many games including some
+information what can be done.
+
+This information is not part of bemanitools but useful to many users using it to run the games. We
+saw users encountering these errors not knowing what they mean. Therefore, we include these errors
+in the repository to provide an accessible source of information regarding them.
+
+Important: The error codes are not consistent throughout the many years of game series and versions.
+
+It is adviced to read the error information carefully (use Google Translate App with your phone's
+camera) and check the following sections. It would be great to get feedback if you see information
+missing or specific games and versions not matching to increase the value of the list.
