Does anyone know why I am always stuck on stage 1 and cannot move forward to stage 2. Everytime I finished playing stage, it always repeated again stage 1?

test with this file is from the modified AIOv5, You just pass it to the game folder and voila, there is nothing else to do.

well if it says it was used already then i guess youll have to make a new card in the game and register that one
i dont know if you can add your card back

there really should not be an option to remove your only card

I solved the problem by creating a new account, thank you for your answer.

Recompress ddra20plus_ bg_ HD, done

https://mega.nz/file/pJY1TQIQ#3rsKTmyaR9rP4PcbzBIs3zJDGYvC-UQVa8xxABevlCM

[strider973]

the real question is why we need to use a compressed video to use it , if the original file is like that is not for nothing , we need to search why the program load SD over HD

Hello.

 

This may be a dumb quuestion, but is there any other way to download the required DDR files outside of that Ficher link that is in 6 parts? Considering it only lets me download one file every two hours it seems kinda rediculous not to mention the very slow download servers they have.
any help would be appireciated

i mean what you can do is to get 2020020300, then apply 2021080400 AIO v5 over it

or you can get the clean 2021080400 and skip all of this patching mumbo jumbo although the AIO has already made it easier to patch the game up

 

it's up to you

Thank you! I'm downloading that now. I'll get the full one which should hopefully give less headaches.

I'm downloading the 2020020300 version and the AIO now too, but I've got the clean version downloaded.
However, when I try to run it it gives me this error:

Use the 32bit version of spice.

Is there a way to have the darkest background without being logged in to the server?  

[ascended azir]

I feel like I'm an idiot when it comes to this stuff, sorry for asking so many questions.

So its up and running thankfully, thank you to those who've helped so far.
But I couldn't find anything in the thread about what to do when the song gets stuck loading after selecting it to play.

There was someone who had the same issue but I don't think anyone responded to them.

If I can get that issue fixed then I think its all up and running, minus the highscores saving but I can live without that/should be able to figure it out.

i would probably tell you to to register the DLLs in the com folder using this command 

regsvr32 k-clvsd.dll && regsvr32 xactengine2_10.dll

in an administrator command prompt focused in the com folder ie. 

D:\MDX-001-2020020300\contents\com

then you can reboot the game and then songs which have a video background should now load properly

[ascended azir]

@piotr25691 Okay, that sounds good. I'm trying to do that now, but got this error.
The module "k-clvsd.dll" failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files. The specified module could not be found.

 

the xactengine2_10.dll seemed to install correcetly, not giving me an error.

seems like you might not have the file in your dir
is your com dir like so?

Yep, thats what it looks like. Both the files are there in the com directory.

[piotr25691]

hmm strange because it should have registered

[ascended azir]

I'll have a play around and see if I can get it working

[ascended azir]

I tried on a different PC and a different install and it still giving me the same error :(

[ascended azir]

Oh, wait I just realised that CMD isn't opening in the folder directory... how do I get it to open as an Admin in the folder?
thats what I need to do I think right?

[ascended azir]

@piotr25691 Okay, last post. I've got it to work. I didn't have CMD in the right directory, but after figuring out how to do it, it is now working! 

Thank you very much for the help, it was much appreicated.

Sorry  for asking this, but I lost my data and I want to download it again, but I've seen there is some patchs like AIOV5  or the clean 2021080400, so I don't know wich of them has the latest songs and videos like koi, seize the day with bg, roki with bg, sil'vous President, Sweet clock, etc... help.

Private development of butterfly:

I tried to read up on the whole situation but I still didnt fully grasp what happened. Seemed bad though :(  Anyway, thanks to you guys for all your efforts! They brought me a ton of joy

 

On another note, I do have a question trying to configure they audio sync delay for 2021 version. Has anybody tried that already and was succesfull? I manage to hexedit the 2020 version successfully to make up for my bluetooth speaker but on 2021 im kinda stuck and did not find any info on that. Thanks for your time!

[topet2k12001]

Hello,

 

In a world where all of this hard work is purely voluntary (i.e. "I have a life, I have a family, I have a job too"), only kind words are what one would consider "fruits of labor" and hearing/reading them feels so rewarding.

 

Butterfly (our fork) has gone a long way. What initially started out as an individual project (a.k.a. "topet's butterfly"), eventually became a small group's project. On that note, this small group of individuals do not look at, nor weigh, their contributions in the quantitative sense. The fact of the matter is, there is mutual dependency in the contributions that went into (our fork of) butterfly in its current state, such that a missing piece/contribution by any single one in this group couldn't have made butterfly "whole" all by himself. In this sense, our contributions are weighted qualitatively and hence, as I personally see it, all are equal and therefore all individuals in this small group have equal stake for decisions involving this fork of butterfly.

 

These are the people who have helped make butterfly what it is today: @tw3nz0r @bman @Towlesy27 @Sirk @One Eternal Ash @kanor

 

And of course, @skogaby who is the original author of butterfly. I've only had a chance to talk to him a few times and learn a thing or two. But that simple act is what enabled and fueled me to embark on this journey.

 

This decision to (hopefully, momentarily) stop openly supporting the use of butterfly with DDR Arcade (Ripped) Data is a very painful decision, at least for me personally, because - and again, this is in no way undermining the group that made it for what it is today - the fact remains that it started as an individual person's project. As such I would almost say that this is my "baby" project. And as "small" of a project as it may be in the eyes of the more technically inclined, I unfortunately was "technically handicapped" throughout this entire journey, so whatever "little achievement" you can see (from the eyes of a technical person) is actually a milestone and a source of pride for me.

 

I am not about to be hypocritical about all of this because at the end of the day we know what "THIS" is. Do know that I personally took it with a heavy heart to make this decision. But I think, for the preservation of the greater good who will and should benefit in the long run, I believe that this decision has to be made.

 

Out of my love for the work that has been done, and out of consideration for the many others who try their best to help with the sustainability of making this game available, I am going to release a "final goodbye" public build (hopefully, goodbye only for now). This build is enough to last you up to any 2020-dated package, and will cease to fully function when the 2021-dated packages are leaked to the public (or when you use our butterfly fork on any 2021-dated builds).

 

In the meantime, you may use other 3rd-party online servers which provide the essentials for enjoying the game (score saving/tracking, score rivalry, force-unlocking of all songs, etc.). It is unfortunate that we had to (again, hopefully momentarily) stop making public builds since our fork of butterfly, although primarily envisioned for offline use, offers a very rich level of support and experience for DDR that goes the extra mile, in fact way beyond the essentials. Nonetheless, I have huge respect for all the maintainers/owners of the 3rd-party online servers. Putting up a server to function online where there a lot of users is in fact a stressful thing to do (on top of the fact this is purely voluntary plus volunteering material and non-material resources to maintain it). I am amazed at not only your work, but also your dedication for doing this. I am a patron of some of these 3rd-party servers too.

 

I personally hope that things will eventually turn out for the better because I am still very excited in helping others as you have seen me do. Let us hope for the best and make this a learning lesson as we move forward.

Generally, I advise against the use of any wireless connectivity because the software itself was pulled from official hardware that doesn't make use of such connectivity.

 

Study the source code of Bemanipatcher (the offiical Bemanipatcher, not the unofficial forks floating around) and you will be able to derive the answer from there.

Thanks for the reply! I did already try changing 0x1D2A5 but then the game did not boot so i suspected the adress to be different in the newer version (and I don't know how I would go about finding that new address). I did read the n-0 page as well though so I think I understand somewhat why the spotlight currently is on more than usual. It's a pity but I get it, you guys need to protect yourselves as first priority!
