I need your help and coop, on how to open the Synchronica Arcade game from Namco.
I got this game form online and this archive has a lot of versions of this game from 0.82 up to 67.08 and after extracting and merging the file, I tried to open the file called "Sync_Release" (I saw this in the app folder).
But the loading is stuck on verifying files then the app will disappear again.

How??? can you help me play this game currently I am still confused then no instruction or tutorial here in the archive.

My copy came from https://archive.org/details/@data_monster (courtesy some dude on discord cc1). 

Take the extracted ones and build up from base version 0.82 all the way up to 67.08 (takes a while). Good luck. 

Same here

This game requires additional dives to run (E: and :F if I'm not mistaken) 

Without it to run you will need to remove drives requirement's in user.ini

 

enable_savedat = false 

 

To use mouse

 

enable_touch_emulation = false

 

Numpad key 1 to enter test mode

Appreciate this information, Let me try this method.

1. Make sure the game folder is not cluster under bunch of other ones, preferably put game in the root of C drive for testing  
2. Remove Read-Only for all the files 
3. Try to extract everything again (I know it's a pain) 

If none of the above works I'm not sure what else can be the issue

Thanks again for this info.

I will try those tips, that is why couldn't boot well on my Synchronica because these files are located at Drive E: (Partitioned from Drive D for) my storage purposes only.
For now, I need to declutter or transfer my old files to an external drive to make more space on my Laptop.

Good day everyone, regarding the drive partition how much memory must be needed to accumulate per drive?

Then, where can I find the registry files based on the CMD message?

[JerryRat]

Hi everyone,
I need someone's help who can boot this game (Synchronica)
I tried to create a 3 drive partition for this game but unfortunately didn't boot well and got stuck then closed on the loading screen (files booting).

regarding the partition, I was still confused about how much storage should be accumulated or the amount per drive?
This game required to be cracked first because I saw on the CMD message they needed to use a dongle.

 

Also, I would like to appreciate his/her effort to dyniel83 for sharing other tips.

 

Sorry for my bad English, not very accurate.

For synchronica try this https://pixeldrain.com/u/Dw5TFn1D

It is my copy with even some extra songs which were deleted when going offline.

This one runs on my pc so if it isn't running on yours it something on your side.

 

I do not give support beyond this post (not a helpdesk)

this is a touchgame so a visible cursor is most irritating 

Look at the config.ini or user.ini (forgot which one) and enable cursor and/or touch emulation 

Go into bios and set free play

 

Now we need some clever person to find out how we can save progress (eamusement emulation)

Indeed, this game will be 100% playable someday because other songs and extras are missing causing force close.
We hope Namco will release the new version of the Synchronica series.

Does anyone know if it's possible to change the language on Guilty Gear Rev2 to english using Rconfig? The service menu doesn't have language options.

 

EDIT - NM, renamed the JPN folder in Localization and it seemed to switch to English.

spice2x-25-03-25 Latest
- Add Mahjong Fight Girl Support #275
- graphics: custom full screen resolution #274
- You can set a custom resolution for full screen mode. Similar to -windowscale, this forcibly adjusts the DX9 back buffer dimensions. Works well for IIDX/SDVX/DDR, works with some tweaks for popn (need to turn on image scaling), broken for games like nostalgia. YMMV.
In theory this could be used to launch SDVX in landscape mode, but the image scaling doesn't quite work if the image is stretched too far, at least at the moment.

 

[JerryRat]

I would like to thank all of you who uploaded this game (Synchronica), and I was amazed by Namco because they released this like an Osu.
And then the star of this content is its work, and capable of being played using a " universal capacitive touch panel ".
Someday this game will be playable in 100 percent work including extras and unlockable songs. Some songs will be forced closed and I don't know how and what happens.

I repeat to say thank you so much! : D

Do you have any recommendations for touchscreen games besides Technika and Reflect Beat? (I have these games)

Modifié le 28 mars par JerryRat

[laflegge]

Beatstream is one which is native a touchgame 

Maimai and jubeat are not real touchgames but are really good playable as such

WACCA also has some touchsupport through some workaround but IMHO not worth the effort

 

The last three of course are better played on real hardware

Is there a list anywhere of all the light gun games that work with j config and or r config

[7zxkv]

spice2x-25-03-29 

- sdvx: landscape mode #277
.This update adds two new options - SDVX Landscape Mode (SDVX5+) (-sdvxlandscape) and Full Screen Orientation Swap (-forceresswap). These options allow you to play portrait games in landscape resolution, and vice versa.
.Two new options are added to SDVX Subscreen Overlay Position (-sdvxsubpos) - bottomleft and bottomright, specifically designed for landscape mode.
.For example, you can boot SDVX in 1920x1080 without rotating your monitor; the game will take up the middle area of the screen, with black borders on left and right. Alternatively, you can run IIDX in vertical monitor, with black borders on top and bottom. Of course, you can still use image resize option to zoom in or out as needed. You can also combine with Force Full Screen Resolution (-forceres) option if you prefer to boot at higher resolution (monitor native resolution).
.It works great for SDVX5+, IIDX27+. It kind of works for pop'n and DDR (needs manual image scaling adjustment). For other games it may be completely broken.
- graphics: rewrite image scaler #278
.Image resize feature has been re-written. As a side effect. your previously saved configuration for image resize will either be "wrong" or discarded completely, depending on which version you upgraded from. This is a breaking change.
- overlay: help tooltip updates #279
.Slight tweaks to Options and Patches tab to surface help tooltip to the user.

if you have some problems with fullscreen mode use your Nvidia/AMD control panel with the right scaling option or use Lossless scaling application, it makes windowed games into fullscreen, you will find this useful app here:
