!!! tip ""
segatools, by default, only accepts keyboard input and does not recognize any
controllers. However, it can be configured with IO DLLs to add support for controllers.
The controller you plan on using should also be provided with these IO DLLs. If unsure,
check the support section for your controller, or contact the vendor directly. Alternate
options for the most common controllers are listed below.
These IO DLLs should be copied to your game's `App\Package` folder and referenced in
`segatools.ini` under the `[mai2io]` section.
!!! tip ""
If you have a single DLL, uncomment the `path=` line by removing the leading semicolon (`;`),
then add your DLL's file name after the `=`:
```ini hl_lines="5"
[mai2io]
; To use a custom maimai DX IO DLL enter its path here.
; Leave empty if you want to use Segatools built-in keyboard input.
;(1)!
path=controller.dll
```
1. Note that there is no leading semicolon.
### Keyboard/Touchscreen
!!! tip ""
Keyboard/Touchscreen is the default input method
The default layout uses `QWEDCXZA` for physical buttons (each key representing the physical button's location relative to the center screen)
If you wish to change the default keybinds, an explanation on how to set these is included
above the `[io4]` section in your `segatools.ini`.
Touch input should automatically work after connecting a touch-screen display
---
### ADX Controller
First, you will need to purchase a compatible monitor if your controller did not come with one. A list of compatible monitors can be found on [this spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WN50pyJEPpXR32UTsEzsKe4Qm-EUAQgwmkCBX3kWB1Q)
Plug your controller in and open `Windows Device Manager`.
Under the `Ports (COM & LPT)` section ensure the correct ports are set for both the Touch Panel and Button LED.
- (Touch Panel) USB Serial Device: `COM3`
- (Button LED) USB-SERIAL CH340: `COM21`
If they are different change the port of the device by `Right Clicking on the Device -> Properties -> Port Settings -> COM Port Number`
Finally ensure the `mai2.ini` file in your data's `App/Package` folder has the following values set under the `[AM]` section
```
[AM]
Target=0
DummyTouchPanel=0
DummyLED=0
```
This gets your controller to working with keyboard inputs at a basically level. Its highly recommended that you also view [this setup guide](https://github.com/maimai-dx/ADX-Controller-Guide/blob/master/document/Setup.md) which provides more detailed instructions, improved drivers, and help with adjusting touch panel sensitivity.
!!! warning
You **DO NOT** need to follow the Network Setup steps in the linked guide above if you've already done so while setting up game data
You **DO NOT** need to follow the Aime Reader setup in the linked guide above if you do not own one.
### Arcade hardware and other controllers
!!! tip ""
If you're interested in using a cabinet, or possibly even
making your own controller, the [Cons&Stuff website](https://consandstuff.github.io/)
and Discord community is a great place to start!

### Preparing data
!!! danger "There are currently issues with running game data in the `E:\` or `Y:\` drive.<br>Please extract the data into other drives."
!!! tip ""
After downloading and extracting your data, we need to make sure your files
are not set to `Read-only`.
- Right click the folder containing your data, then click on `Properties`.
- In the `General` tab go down to `Attributes`, untick `Read-only` and click `Apply`.
- A popup will appear, select `Apply changes to this folder, subfolder and files`and press `OK`.
- Finally, click `OK` again to exit out of properties.
You should end up with a file structure as follows.
<img width="500" src="/img/maimaidx/setup/rootdir.png">
Create two new empty folders named `appdata` and `amfs` (and the folder `option` if not present) next to them as shown below:

The `App` folder should have a file structure as follows.
<img width="500" src="/img/maimaidx/setup/appdir.png">
??? warning "If your data doesn't look like this"
If your data looks like the third image:
- Create an `App` folder and move all files and folders from the image inside of it.
- Create empty folders named `amfs`, `Option` and `AppData` next to the `App` folder.
If extra files are present next to your folders, such as executables, scripts, etc..
**remove them. This also means your data was tampered with and we strongly recommend
getting new data from somewhere else.**
#### Installing ICFs
!!! tip ""
Install Configuration Files (ICFs) tell the game what version it is.
**Without this your game cannot go online!**
If your `amfs` folder already has files`ICF1` and `ICF2`, skip this step.
Otherwise, obtain copies of `ICF1` for your game version and place it in
the `amfs` folder. If it is named something else, rename it to exactly
`ICF1` **without any file extensions.** `ICF2` is a copy of `ICF1`.
??? info "Showing File Extensions"
By default, file extensions on Windows are hidden. Enable them by navigating to
the `View` tab in File Explorer and select `File name extensions`.
#### Installing Unprotected Executables
!!! tip ""
maimai DX executables are protected and will not run on a regular computer.
Obtain unprotected (also called "unpacked" or "decrypted" by the community)
copies of the following files and the associated configuration file:
- amdaemon.exe
- Sinmai.exe
- Sinmai_Data/Plugins/amdaemon_api.dll
- Sinmai_Data/Plugins/Cake.dll
- Sinmai_Data/Managed/AMDaemon.NET.dll
- Sinmai_Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp.dll
- mai2.ini or maimaiDX.ini
Copy the files and folders into the `App/Package` folder of your game data. Agree to overwrite
when asked.
!!! Warning "Assembly-CSharp Notes"
`Assembly-CSharp.dll` **must** match your game version. All others can be
reused from other game versions.
`Assembly-CSharp.dll` **must** also contain `mai2.ini` or `maimaiDX.ini`. These configuration
files are specific to the unprotected `Assembly-CSharp.dll`. If your package does not
contain a configuration file, please create one with the following to bypass hardware
checks on game startup:
```ini
[AM]
Target=0
IgnoreError=1
DummyTouchPanel=1
DummyLED=1
DummyCodeCamera=1
DummyPhotoCamera=1
[Sound]
Sound8Ch=0
[Patches]

### Installing Segatools
!!! tip ""
- Head over to [segatools releases](https://gitea.tendokyu.moe/Dniel97/segatools/releases/latest)
and download the latest `segatools.zip`. **Do not download the source code.**
- Extracting the archive should give you a few more zip files. Find `mai2.zip`
and extract it to the `App/Package` folder in your game data.
You should now have a few more files inside the `App/Package` folder, as highlighted:
<img width="500" src="/img/maimaidx/setup/segatools.png">
---
### Configuring Segatools
!!! tip ""
Since there is no graphical configuration tool for segatools, you will have to edit the
configuration file by hand. It is found in `App/Package/segatools.ini`.
It is recommended that you follow along using a text editor with syntax highlighting such as [Notepad++](https://notepad-plus-plus.org/).
Each following sub-section will correspond to a section in `segatools.ini`. If any
section is not mentioned, you can skip them.
!!! warning
If a key already exists in the section, delete everything after `=` and replace it with your
setting. Do not add another key. Example:
```ini
[system]
dipsw2=1
dipsw2=1 ; WRONG!
```
#### `[vfs]`
!!! tip ""
If you've been matching the file structure as described in the [Preparing data](#preparing-data)
section, you can fill in this section with the values below:
```ini
[vfs]
amfs=../../amfs
option=../../option
appdata=../../appdata
```
#### `[dns]`
!!! tip ""
Game will not pass checks unless you modify the dns:
```ini
[dns]
default=YOUR_IPv4_ADDRESS
```
??? tip "Finding Your IPv4 Address"
Open a command promt. Type `ipconfig` and look for the IPv4 Address.
Place those digits here otherwise you will get stuck on the DNS(LAN) check.
---
### Pre-launch requirements
!!! info "These steps are required, otherwise your game won't run."
#### VCRedist & DirectX

### Test Launch
!!! danger "If you have any issues running the game, refer to the [Troubleshooting](troubleshooting.md) page."
!!! warning "Please Disconnect any Hardware including Controllers or Card Readers at this time."
!!! tip
Without an English patch, the service menu will be in Japanese. If you don't know Japanese, [Google Lens](https://lens.google/)
is a handy tool for navigating this menu.
#### Game Settings
!!! tip ""
If you've followed all instructions correctly, you are ready to launch the game!
Start the game by running `App/Package/start.bat`. You should see a terminal pop-up with the following:
<img src="/img/maimaidx/setup/cmd.png">
Another window titled `Sinmai` is the actual game. It should pause on `Search for Distribution Servers`:
<img src="/img/maimaidx/setup/distribution_servers_check.png">
!!! tip ""
Use the following keyboard controls `F1` = `Test/Enter` and `c` = `down` to do the following:
- Press `F1` to enter the service menu
- Press `c` a few times to navigate to `Game Settings` or `ゲーム設定` as shown below:
<img src="/img/maimaidx/setup/service_menu.png">
- Press `F1` to enter the menu. Press `c` to navigate to the top option and toggle to `OFF` using `F1`. You should see the following:
<img src="/img/maimaidx/setup/service_game_settings.png">
- Press `ESC` to exit. Close all associated windows including `CMD`, `AMDaemon`, and `Sinmai`. Relaunch with `start.bat` and the game should boot into guest mode.
---
### Connecting to a Network
!!! danger "Please choose one of the two solutions, not both!"
??? tip "Remote (Online Network)"
Head to the `[dns]` section inside `segatools.ini`. Set `default` to the address
provided by your network. **Do not add `http://` or `https://` to the address!**
```ini
[dns]
default=network.example
```
Then, head to the `[keychip]` section and add & set `id` to the keychip ID provided by your network:
```ini
[keychip]
subnet=192.168.172.0
id=A69E-XXXXXXXXXXX
```
Finally, you need a card number. Create a file named `aime.txt` inside `App/Package/DEVICE` and type in
your 20-digit access code if you already have one, or make one up if you don't. If you're making one
up, the access code **MUST NOT** start with a 3.
<img src="/img/maimaidx/setup/access_code.png">
??? tip "Local (ARTEMiS/AquaDX)"
Both of these options require non-trivial setup. Refer to the official guides for [ARTEMiS](https://gitea.tendokyu.moe/Hay1tsme/artemis/src/branch/develop/docs/INSTALL_WINDOWS.md)
and [AquaDX](https://github.com/hykilpikonna/AquaDX?tab=readme-ov-file#usage-v1-developmental-preview)
to set up a local server.

### Further Configuration
#### Updating the Base Game
!!! tip ""
Extract your patch's files to your existing data in a way that matches its
file structure. Agree to overwrite files if necessary.
!!! Warning "Only update if an unencrypted `Assembly-CSharp.dll` is available"
#### Installing Option Data
!!! tip ""
maimai DX content updates are distributed through option folders instead of patching
the base game. They are named with a letter followed by three numbers. Each release
increments the letter (ie. BUDDiES is `H???` and BUDDiES+ is `I???`).
Extract any options you've downloaded into the `option` folder. You should end up with
a file structure as follows. **Do not be worried if you have fewer or more option folders.**

### My game crashes on launch/stuck on "Starting System Process"
!!! tip ""
Could be due to **many** things, the most common of which are:
- `amdaemon` crashing in the background. Make sure that the `config_*.json` files
have valid syntax, your ICF files are correct, and the OpenSSL fix is applied on Intel Core 10th Gen CPUs and newer.
??? info "Capturing logs from `amdaemon` for troubleshooting"
To assist with troubleshooting, a script can be used to capture logs from `amdaemon`. Create a file named
`amdaemontest.bat` in `App\bin`, then paste the code block below into the file.
```batch
@echo off
cls
echo Attempting to run AM Daemon ...
echo Window should close after 30 seconds
echo Log will be generated at amdaemontest.txt
call :sub >amdaemontest.txt
exit /b
:sub
set OPENSSL_ia32cap=:~0x20000000
pushd %~dp0
start /b "AM Daemon" /min inject -d -k mu3hook.dll amdaemon.exe -f -c config_common.json config_server.json
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 31 > nul && taskkill /F /im amdaemon.exe
```
Double-click it to run. The script should run for 30 seconds, and you will get a file
named `amdaemontest.txt` in `App\bin`, which you can send to help people troubleshoot your issue.
---
### My game is stuck on a black screen at launch!
!!! tip ""
This could also be due to **many** things, the most common of which are:
- You have one or more incorrect/broken DLL(s) in `App\Package\Sinmai_Data\Managed`
This is likely to be `Assembly-CSharp.dll`, `Assembly-CSharp-firstpass.dll`, and/or `AMDaemon.NET.dll`.
You can try replacing the DLLs or re-downloading data from elsewhere.
- An ill-formed keychip is defined in `segatools.ini`
- You need to app the OpenSSL fix on Intel Core 10th Gen CPUs and newer.
---
### My game is stuck on a blue and black screen!
You need to run the data using unprotected/unpacked files. Please refer to the setup guide to find which ones you need and obtain them.
If you belive you've already done this. You might be missing a try installing the latest [vcredist](https://github.com/abbodi1406/vcredist/releases)
---
### My game is running too slow/fast or the notes are out of sync!
!!! tip ""
The game could be running under or over its required refresh rate.
- Make sure V-Sync isn't disabled in your graphics settings (called "Vertical sync"
in NVIDIA Control Panel and "Wait for Vertical Refresh" in AMD Control Panel.)
- Limit `Sinmai.exe` to run at 60 FPS using a tool like [RivaTuner](https://www.guru3d.com/download/rtss-rivatuner-statistics-server-download) or a patch.
It could also be that your computer's performance isn't good enough to keep
a steady framerate.
