Preparing data

--8<-- "docs/snippets/common/data_readonly.md"

The **complete game data** should be approximately **100 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
📂dev
📂modules
📂prop
```

--8<-- "docs/snippets/konami/common/data_bad.md"

!!! info "If your data is already up-to-date, you can skip ahead to the Installing spice2x section"

Updating data

!!! danger "Make sure you're using the right update for your current game version"

IIDX updates have `LDJ` and one or two datecodes in their archive names.

**Single datecode:** Contains one update (e.g., `LDJ_NewDateCode.7z`)  
**Two datecodes:** Updates from the older to newer version (e.g., `LDJ_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 update
- `NewDateCode` is the newer date, and is the version you'll arrive at after applying the update
