+Game Setup
+
+
You must obtain clean, unmodified and complete data to proceed with our guides
+
Corrupted or incomplete files will cause unpredictable issues we can't cover.
+TWO-TORIAL does not provide or distribute game data. Do not ask.
+
Preparing data
+
+
Ensure your game files are not marked as read-only:
+
+- Right click the directory containing your files
+- Click on
Properties
+- Under the
General tab, find Attributes and uncheck Read-only
+- Click
Apply
+- When prompted, select
Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files
+- Click
OK to confirm, then OK again to close Properties
+
+
The complete game data should be approximately 10 GB or larger.
+If your data is significantly smaller, you likely have an update archive instead of the full game data.
+
Here's what the expected data structure should look like:
+
📂data
+📂modules
+📂prop
+⚙️msvcr100.dll
+
+
+
If your data does not look like this
+
If you have other .dll files next to your data, prop, etc., folders:
+
+- Create a
modules folder if it does not exist already
+- Move all
.dll files into it
+
+
If extra directories or files are still present (executables, scripts, etc.), remove them.
+
This also indicates tampered data, we strongly recommend obtaining clean data from elsewhere.
+
+
If your data is already up-to-date, you can skip ahead to the Installing spice2x section
+
Updating data
+
+
Make sure you're using the right update for your current game version
+
jubeat updates have L44 and one or two datecodes in their archive names.
+
Single datecode: Contains one update (e.g., L44_NewDateCode.7z)
+Two datecodes: Updates from the older to newer version (e.g., L44_OldDateCode-NewDateCode.rar)
+
A date code should look something like this: YYYYMMDDXX
+
In the two-datecode example:
+
+OldDateCode is the older date, the game version required to apply this updateNewDateCode is the newer date, and is the version you'll arrive at after applying the update
+
+
+- Extract the update to your game directory, ensure directories align and overwrite files when prompted
+- Open
prop\ea3-config.xml and find the <ext> line:
+<ext __type="str">NewDateCode</ext>
+
+- Update the datecode to match your new game version and save
+- If
prop\bootstrap.xml exists, also update its <release_code> line:
+<release_code>NewDateCode</release_code>
+
+
+
Installing spice2x
+
+
If you already have spice2x installed, ensure you're using the latest version
+
+
+- Visit spice2x.github.io to download the latest release
+- Extract both
spice.exe and spicecfg.exe from the archive into your game's directory
+
+
📂data
+📂modules
+📂prop
+⚙️msvcr100.dll
+🌶️spice.exe
+🌶️spicecfg.exe
+
+
+Additional steps for AMD graphics cards
+Since the BEMANI games are designed for NVIDIA GPU's, AMD users need additional files:
+
+- Locate the
spice2x\stubs\32\ folder in the spice2x archive
+- Extract all
.dll files from there into your game's modules folder
+
+
+Configuring spice2x
+
+
Following tabs correspond to the ones found in spicecfg
+
Additional information is available at spice2x's wiki.
+
+
Avoid changing or patching anything you don't need or understand unless explicitly told to
+
+
+
+
+
This tab is used to bind your keyboard and controller buttons
+
+
+
Bind vs Naive
+
Bind - Use for controllers and hardware devices. More responsive and detects any HID device.
+Naive - Use for device agnostic keyboard binds. Less responsive but works with simulated keystrokes.
+
+
+
Binding your buttons
+
Click on Bind or Naive then press the key you want associated with the action.
+
With your controller and/or keyboard plugged in, configure your keys for:
+
+- Maintenance:
Service, Test
+- Game buttons:
Button 1 to Button 16
+- Keypad:
Keypad Insert Card
+
+
+
+
Using a touch screen
+
spice2x supports using a touch screen instead of the 16 game buttons. In that case, you don't need to bind these buttons.
+
+
+
Additional info
+
+- Use page navigation at the bottom to bind multiple buttons to the same input
+- Check Bind Many to bind multiple controls in sequence
+- Click Edit after binding for advanced options (invert, MIDI sensitivity, etc.)
+
+
+
+
+
+
No need to change anything here
+
+
+
+
+
This tab is used to bind keys to toggle spice2x and game-related overlays
+
+
+
Binding extra buttons here is optional, defaults are fine
+
Click on Bind or Naive then press the key you want associated with the action.
+
+
+
+
+
This tab allows you to configure controller lights to sync with the game
+
Not all controllers support this, but it does not affect gameplay and is completely optional.
+
+
+
+- Click
Bind
+- In
Device, pick your controller
+- In
Light Control, select the corresponding light
+- Click
Close
+- Repeat for your other lights
+
+
+

This tab lets you configure which cards are used to save your game profile to
+
+
+If you own a physical e-amuse/FeliCa card and a compatible NFC card reader
+Setup instructions vary depending on your specific reader model.
+Navigate to the Advanced tab and scroll down to the NFC Card Readers section.
+Browse the available options and hover over each one to view descriptions and configuration guidance.
+There is no need for you to specify cards for either player in this tab when using a card reader.
+
+
+If you don't, you can use a virtual card number instead
+If you already have generated a card number before, you may use this one.
+To generate a new card number for Player 1 or 2:
+
+- Click on
Open...
+- Choose where to save your card number
+- Give it a file name (e.g.
card0.txt)
+- Click save
+- Finally, click on
Generate
+
+This will automatically generate a valid card number for you and keep it in the file you specified.
