Crashing of the game when playing Galaxy Stage is NOT A BUG.

It crashes because you're either not using a server...

...or the server you're using doesn't support the Galaxy Play event itself, or not written to properly support it.

MonkeyBusiness Update!

The author of MonkeyBusiness has just released a webui for MonkeyBusiness, called BounceTrippy!

Download:

https://github.com/drmext/BounceTrippy/releases/tag/v0.0.1-alpha

How to set up:

1. Once downloaded, extract the "webui" folder into the main folder of MonkeyBusiness.
2. Start MonkeyBusiness as per the usual procedure. You will notice now in MonkeyBusiness's CMD window, that there is a URL provided to access the webUI.
3. Copy that URL and paste it to a new browser window or tab.
4. Done!

How to use the webUI:

1. Select your card.
2. Your records will show up (scores, songs, etc.) as well as your details like your Profile Name, personalized settings, etc.
3. You may now proceed with personalizing your setup e.g. Darkness of the Background, Choosing your Dancing Character, etc.
4. Make sure to click on "Save Settings" when you're done setting it up!
5. Recommended:
   • At the upper-right portion of the webUI there is a button for you to upload your startup.arc file. This file contains the "database" of songs.
   • Load it up so that the details of your records (song names, etc) will be displayed properly (you may need to refresh your browser after uploading startup.arc). 

MonkeyBusiness (offline server) update 20221112!

The source GitHub repo is down. However, the author has shared the latest build! This latest build comes with some under-the-hood improvements! Enjoy!

MonkeyBusiness (offline server) update 20221004...fresh and hot, just updated minutes ago!

Get it here: https://github.com/drmext/MonkeyBusiness

 

What's New:

• Area Best and Machine Best scores are now fully functioning (they are no longer based on "World Best" score)!
  • IMPORTANT NOTES:
    • This is a new implementation/change, so the Area Best and Machine Best scores will have to be new scores (since previously, the Area/Machine Best scores used to be based on the "World Best" score).
    • The "Area" is defined by "E.region" in the file "facility.py" located in "modules->core" folder, and NOT the "Area" that you chose when you initially set up your card.
      • The default value that you will see is 'JP-13'
      • So if you want to change the "Area" (for Area Best) you will need to edit the abovementioned file.
      • See screenshot below for reference.
        
        
         
• Working support for Dan Courses - and it can support both scenarios for stock/vanilla DDR A20 PLUS as well as DDR A20 PLUS Omnimix!
  • Context:
    • In DDR A20 PLUS Omnimix, the behavior of the Dan Courses has been modified to show/display ALL Dan Courses without unlocking.
    • This change/update in MonkeyBusiness still allows for proper support/progressing of Dan Courses on stock/default DDR A20 PLUS.
       
• Under-the-hood optimization
  • Faster Loading Time (after entering your PIN)
  • Context:
    • You won't notice it when you've just started using an offline server like MonkeyBusiness, but when the back-end database starts to get filled up with so many records, the game eventually tends to take some time to load.
    • This happens on certain parts of the game where records are being "read" from the database, e.g. after entering your PIN, during the "Caution" screen - but NOT during actual gameplay.
    • The author of MonkeyBusiness has optimized this so you will experience faster loading times!

Hi Topet.... thanks as always for your contributions and news of this server.... I would like to ask you something: is there or is there a way to customize the profile like removing the "guidelines" or changing the "Arrowskin". I like to play without lines and the arrows in "Classic". Thank you!

Hi,

As mentioned in my initial post, MonkeyBusiness does not have a convenient UI (unlike Asphyxia) but yes it is possible!

1. First of all you need to make sure that you have already configured a profile and played the game at least once. This causes the database of MonkeyBusiness to be created. This is where your records will reside, as well as the profile settings (customizations that you are looking for).
2. In the MonkeyBusiness folder, you will now find a new file named "db.json". This is the database. Open the database using a text editor (like Notepad++ for example).
3. You can find the editable fields for customizing your profile (Removing Guidelines, Selecting your Dancing Character, your Arrow Skin, Judgment foreground/background, turning on Fast/Slow, etc.). See screenshot as reference. You can even set "rivals" if you wish, assuming there are other profiles in the database.
   
   
    

                       "calories_disp": "On",
                       "character": "All Character Random",
                       "arrow_skin": "Normal",
                       "filter": "Darkest",
                       "guideline": "Off",
                       "priority": "Judgment",
                       "timing_disp": "On",
                       "rival_1_ddr_id": 12345678, (enter your rival's ddr_id in this field)
                       "rival_2_ddr_id": 12345678, (enter your rival's ddr_id in this field)
                       "rival_3_ddr_id": 12345678, (enter your rival's ddr_id in this field)

   
    
4. Here are the values you can select for each field mentioned above. You type them manually and save db.json.

        calories_disp = ["Off", "On"]
        character = ["All Character Random", "Man Random", "Female Random", "Yuni", "Rage", "Afro", "Jenny", "Emi", "Baby-Lon", "Gus", "Ruby", "Alice", "Julio", "Bonnie", "Zero", "Rinon"]
        arrow_skin = ["Normal", "X", "Classic", "Cyber", "Medium", "Small", "Dot"]
        screen_filter = ["Off", "Dark", "Darker", "Darkest"]
        guideline = ["Off", "Border", "Center"]
        priority = ["Judgment", "Arrow"]
        timing_disp = ["Off", "On"]

MonkeyBusiness Update (I was informed by no less than the author himself) 20220927:

Get it here: https://github.com/drmext/MonkeyBusiness

 

Enhancements

• Now displays "World Best" score! There is a slight catch:
  • you need to replay the song to get the song into the database, and from there onwards the score will show up
  • Machine Best and Area Best are based on the "World Best" score for now (this is typical for an offline server because it's like having just one machine in the entire server)
• You can now add/configure rivals!
  • You can do this by playing a credit first so that the database will assign rival "slots" to your profile. They will be defaulted to just zeros (0).
  • After a credit, you can now add the "ddr_id" of your rivals (assuming you have other profiles in the database!). Replace the zero in Rival 1 (or 2 or 3 slot) with the "ddr_id" of your rival and done!
• Now displays Rival Scores!
• Has "visually working" screenshot feature!
  • you'll now see "Press 1 to take screenshot" and you can interact with it by pressing 1.
  • No screenshot will actually be generated; right now it's just the ability to see this notification and interact with it.

Fixes

• "Muted sound" during the "Song Results" screen is now fixed. Take note that music is really muted during the "Song Results" screen of Final Stage when you qualify for Extra Stage; that is not a bug/glitch.
• Other under-the-hood fixes

Here is another offline server, made in Python. The name of this offline server is "Monkey Business."
 

Click here!

 

I have been in touch with the developer of this server and I have done testing and given feedback as well. So far it works fine on DDR A20 PLUS and DDR A3.

Score saving and persistence:

• DDR A3: saves personal score only
• DDR A20 PLUS: saves personal score, rival score, machine score, and world best score.
• DDR A20 and DDR A (Ace): I haven't tested, but I would presume it also works on DDR A20 and older up to DDR A since they're all using the same methods.

Notes:

• Just like butterfly there is no front-facing interface that Asphyxia has. So if you want to change profile-related settings like Calories, Judgment, etc. you have to start the game one time first and go through the process of setting up your profile in the game. At that point, a database file named `db.json` will be created inside the "MonkeyBusiness" folder. You  edit your profile settings.
• Start the game and play a full credit. You will notice that some changes you made might not take effect yet (like removing the Guidelines). That's fine; just finish playing one full credit up to the "Thank You For Playing" screen.
• Fully exit the game (as in totally close the program), and then start it again. The changes you made to your profile settings should take effect by then.
• Unlike butterfly and Asphyxia which use Localhost (127.0.0.1), Monkey Business uses an internally assigned IP address. Make sure that you set your `services` tag/URL to that internally assigned IP address. Also make sure you set `-urlslash` to 1 (enable).  You'll see this detail when Monkey Business starts up so you won't forget.

Oh well, I see. However, I have already gotten the game to work with the DLLs being out of modules directory.

Yup, that's another solution so you won't have to deal with having to specify the folder location.

You are specifying two (2) conflicting parameters.

You're specifying for spicetools to use its built-in local server (which is -ea) and at the same time you're specifying spicetools to connect to an online 3rd-party server.

Hey everyone! I need to help getting 2022020200 to run. The game boots up just fine but crashes after I select language.  Here’s a pic of the log. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

The crash that happens when selecting Language is due to some corrupted files in your data.

I have gotten it to work, turns out you need the DirectX 9 Redistributables to get the game to boot. If you don't have them, then the EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION will screw you over.

Glad you got it working by installing DIrectX 9 but "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION" for this game actually means a lot of things and may be caused by many different things.

https://ibb.co/gWbGZK8

What I see in your logs is that you may have some corrupted files; probably due to or related to adding some songs incorrectly.

On 4/11/2022 at 2:15 AM, FinalDistance said:

Never mind, tried it after installing DirectX 9 from the link you gave and it still crashes. Back to the drawing board for me. 

...which is why your game crashed again afterwards.

There must be something lost in translation, I don't need to know what the penalty was - just the fact that there was a punishment - proves my point. 

The point is that you are asking for staff to issue a punishment now, when that is already in the past. Justice has been served. So calling out things right now about "oh he's seeking attention" "oh he needs to be corrected/punished" "oh he's hurting the community" is already done; everyone else has moved on past that and you should too.

1 hour ago, Diddy13 said:

Just because you think something through, doesn't mean the foundation can lack logic. Your reasoning is flawed and staff saw it that way as well. You deleted posts because you were frustrated(an emotion) that people were asking the same questions and you expected them to read 60+ pages of threads. You could have simply ignored them or had someone else answer - instead you let the situation get the best of you and edited aka deleted your post

Same as above response.

Also...who said that the reason for deleting my posts was because people were asking the same questions? That is not the story behind it. Those who were present at the time of the issue know that. Seems like you you are trying to paint a picture to rationalize your conclusion that you immediately jumped to.

That's why I said in my previous post, to those who are new, to read everything first or ask those who have been with me through the journey.

My dear sir, the more you respond, the more it is getting obvious that you didn't even read that "long message" I wrote in replacement of my original posts. Please let us stop this, try to talk to someone here who has been with me through the journey leading up to the deletion so that you can understand the real reason behind. Instead of making baseless accusations like "frustration" or "hoarding."

10 hours ago, Diddy13 said:

I require no information from you. You think you're in control of your emptions, but the fact you act on emotion by editing past posts, threatening to leave, and your numerous edited back to back responses without even a response from me - shows that you lack emotional regulation. 

If you say so.  Likewise I wasn't offering you, in particular, any information. We're just going on as usual here and suddenly there you are.

My back-to-back edits was because I was on a mobile phone at the time of the response. You seem to jump into your own conclusions fairly quickly.

By the way: in case you didn't know, this forum site enforces restrictions against spam hence it is recommended here to just edit a post instead of sending multiple messages in succession. It's fairly common to see posts edited here and nobody has said anything about it, you're the first one I've seen who seems to have issues with it.

Also, this is an international forum so it's typical to see posts being edited since there are people here who, like me, don't speak in English as their first language. I am sorry if that caused you to have the wrong impression, though.

Reading comprehension, use it. Your comment doesn't negate anything I said. I also never said I needed help, stated that topet2k12001's actions hurt the community - which is evident by him admitting that staff punished him

Excuse me, but you didn't even know (nor even ask) what the penalty was about and here you are formulating a conclusion again.

You are looking at the situation from a "glass-half-empty" perspective. I could have very well left (as you said) and deleted this thread (I am allowed to do so since I'm the thread's author). But I still have compassion for the people who are just "collateral damage" from the people who actually caused for me to decide to stop supporting. That is why I did not delete this thread, and that is why I still, at the very least, give hints on how to solve for issues.

The very point why I openly said that I already received a penalty is for you to realize that whatever happened is already dealt with accordingly and hence a closed case, back in October 2021. But here you are, in March 2022, still ranting about those things from the past. I really think you should move on now, sir.  

My deleting of posts is  actually not based on emotion...but it is to prevent further damage by allowing unscrupulous individuals from having knowledge and use that for abusing that knowledge. I hope you did read my parting message very carefully so you can realize that it was a very tough decision that I had to make. Calling it "hoarding" is totally uncalled for, considering that it was a decision that took me time to think and weigh things - it was not an impulsive (emotional) decision.

Your area for opportunity is that you took a single post and construed an entire story from that one, singular, post of mine. Obviously that single post will be lost in context if you read it as-is. I think you should read everything if you really want to get to the bottom of things - or ask those who have been with me through this journey (I already mentioned this) - before you pass judgment.

You are the one who needs to move on, sir.

For your information, I did not invent nor discover all the methods that I shared here. I researched them, and I'm not even a techie guy. Most people think that the information/knowledge required is hidden in some private torrent sites. Maybe, yes, but that's only 10% of it. The rest is available over the Internet. As a matter of fact, much of what I wrote (and deleted) came from older threads in this forum site. Then, combined with an intuitive and willingness to do trial-and-error. It's all about effort and how much one is willing to invest time (not even money) to learn.

Therefore, to say that I am "hoarding" information is totally inaccurate and it's just an attempt to make me do the work because the others are lazy to exert effort on thier own.

I get what you're trying to do: reverse psychology. You're taunting me so that I give in and inadvertently out of losing control of my emotions, so I would end up reverting to how I was before - giving all the information. Apologies but I made up my mind.

Instead of looking at it from that angle where you're alleging that I'm "screaming for attention," just appreciate the fact that I still make an effort to peek at this forum and still give hints on how to solve for issues being experienced by others. Others do, and you're actually one of the minority who thinks otherwise so the evidence is not leaning to your favor, unfortunately.

If you all want to be able to use butterfly still, use 2020-07-28 data and just add all the remaining songs that came after.

I'm not going to teach how to add songs; there are already a lot of materials shared here that I didn't post (so I won't be able to delete them). I deleted only all my posts. Please do not PM me, my Inbox is going to be full anyway and I will not clear my Inbox.

To those who are new here: before you pass judgment, I advise you to ask those who have been through the journey with me and hear the stories of how supportive I was. There is a reason why I stopped supporting. Also this is not paid support. I did all that I did as a vocation, as passion for what I do. Unless you're my source of income, do not demand.

Thank you.

One thing that has been very frustrating this weekend has been trying to work through all the deleted posts. I'm confused that the author spent 3 years encouraging everyone to read everything and learn for themselves, then felt compelled to replace EVERY one of their posts with that long message. I've been doing my best to try working out information from context clues and quote replies, but man it's difficult. I need to see an edit history!

 

I would like to incorporate NFC reading for my setup and use real e-amusement cards to sign in to profiles. If you or anyone else who has been down this road has more information, I would love to hear it. I'm thinking I would need 2x readers to properly send the "insert card" signal per player?

I'm sorry that that is the experience now for new readers, but stuff has happened recently that pushed me to my decision. The very context is already explained in "that long message." I can delete only my posts so there are posts by others that provide sufficient information for what you need.

You can actually experience card swiping ala-arcade if you have a phone with an NFC reader. Spicetools has an Android companion app (Spice Companion, search for it in Google Play Store). I tried it and it works.

But if you want to go to the extent of maybe fabricating a wooden cabinet and relive an actual arcade experience, that conversation I had with @dean@tamm.am is exactly for that reason.

So yes, while it's not necessary to use two separate numpads and NFC readers, the context of the discussion was to emulate the arcade feel/experience.

He did provide links to the actual hardware he used/purchased so that would be your starting point. As far as configuring it, try to explore the "Options" tab of spicecfg.exe. Everything you need to get this to work is actually in there.

I understand that we are keeping the expansion of song database private.  I get why.  But I'm not the problem.  All I want to do is add the original songs from mixes 8th and lower.  All I get is like 6 songs on 8th mix.

I will not spoon-feed the answer flat out, but I can tell that all information and tools needed to achieve that are already posted in this thread as well as the previous/old DDR A20 thread. It's just a matter of determination and willingness to read, learn, and try.

The mirror dumps are rather difficult to DL from any other suggestions?

Check some known torrent sites, also within this thread some links were actually provided.

do anyone has discover yet how to increase the song limit? 
i'm trying to do an omnimix but the songs stopped appearing after 1200 or something like that

 

Thanks !!!!

We have. But we are keeping it private for now.

Also, 1200 songs is a bit too early to be reaching the limit. There must be something wrong with your files that's causing your game to crash that soon.

Redacted due to privacy/security concerns.

I don't give direct answers because I want people to actually exert effort to learn. This is how exactly I got to this point of knowledge about all of this. I wasn't given the answers straight up. Instead, I was given only clues and I was left to figure things out on my own.

Now, I'm not forcing you guys to follow what I did, or to take time away from your busy lives to learn this. But, do know that I am not paid to do this too so I can't be forced to help/provide support beyond what I'm willing to give.

"Give a man fish, and you have fed him for a day. Teach a man how to fish, and you have fed him for a lifetime."

Nobody should be forced to provide support beyond what they're comfortable with (unless this is a job where the person is paid to provide support), and if you guys do I might totally leave and you'll never hear from me again.

today i have download 2020020300+v5 again ,I don't think there is a problem with my data. There should be some problems, and then I don't know how to fix them

Those AIOs are not clean data because they are "repacked" by other people, so you can't be too sure how they were prepared/packed. If you really want to be absolutely sure your data is clean, you have to be the one to compile it yourself. If you're simply and blindly downloading stuff that other people prepared, then that means you didn't spend enough effort in learning the data itself and how it works. I didn't start off knowing all of these things. I spent a lot of time studying and learning them until I got it right.

I have stopped providing support and I have announced that publicly and officially. What I'm doing is just extra mile. I help only because I want to and I feel to and I will help only to the extent that I am comfortable with sharing. I am in no way obligated and I'm doing this purely on my own volition.

EDIT: I don't mean to offend those who exerted effort in sharing their "repacks" (AIOs). Don't take my message in the wrong context. What I simply mean is that people should know how to build/compile the data on their own to be absolutely sure that the data they have is untouched. This is what I meant by "clean" data. Totally untouched and compiled only on your own.

If you guys are using AIOs or repacks, you should ask the respective creators for support. Because as I have already shown through videos, butterfly simply works, and it can work on A20 PLUS so long as you are using 2020-dated modules. The proof is already there and is undisputable, I even used an older version of butterfly to prove it, so don't blame your issues on butterfly.

But in your video, the "pasel" quantity setting and consumption setting are different from ours. These need to be modified for butterfly.sqlite implementation, right?

 

 

 

All the releases are identified based on the PASELI count, nothing special. If you're referring to the video I posted, it said 14000 simply because I was using butterfly 1.4.0 which is much older.

Having said that, now you see undisputable proof that butterfly works. Hence you guys are doing something wrong or your data is dirty.

This detail about PASELI isn't related at all to your issue of not being able to run the game properly. You're overthinking again and over-complicating your issue. You guys are simply not running 2020-dated modules and it's evident in your recent posts that I quoted. That's the only reason. I don't know what else I need to do to make you guys understand that. You keep on looking at other angles when I already said repeatedly what you guys are doing wrong.

Can you provide a copy of your butterfly.sqlite for me to study？ please.

The file, butterfly.sqlite, is generated by butterfly. It is not manually generated by a human.

Having said that, we will all essentially have the same file, the only difference being our scores recorded in it.

not using 2020-dated modules, or

are connected online via another 3rd-party server (therefore you're really not using butterfly at that moment), or

have "dirty" data (unverified/manually-compiled builds),

I have tested this and as I have said on repeated occasions and I have read everything that is written and I have tested with clean versions 0 modifications and nothing, tested with the clean 2020 and 2021 versions but the problem continues, using butterfly 1.4.1 and also with 1.3, and of course using the localhost server.

Why do you all keep on insisting to test 2021-dated modules on the publicly-released butterfly builds? I announced in my farewell post that it will only support 2020-dated modules. As if it weren't enough, I recorded a video to prove it, and repeated the same reminder. Yet you guys don't want to listen.
