[Tuto] Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 5, Including Versus play (LAN) setup, Extra car livery.

[Guest linglang]

Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 5 (2014 update 5)

 'Wangan', literally bayshore in Japanese.

Works fine with TeknoParrot version 1.0.0.201

 

Executable files is, wmn5r.exe

 

First,I'll write up the procedure for setting up a VS play network config. (before I forget)

 

Here we go !

 

First make note / pictures of the original settings in the service menu before you change them !

 

Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 5, does NOT like to work stand alone, when configured for LAN VS play !

(At least the as slave configured cabin(s))

 

You are going to configure the settings for Versus play on two PC's.

The game will probably not work standalone with these network VS settings.

 

Second I recommend to use static IP addresses on your network cards.

https://kb.netgear.com/27476/How-to-set-a-static-IP-address-in-Windows

 

Use extra network cards and a crossover cable for a direct connection, if needed.

 

Let us setup Cabin1 (left)

In TeknoParrot Game specific settings.

Set the game .exe location (wmn5r.exe)

Next check these boxes:

General - Freeplay. (if needed)

General - Terminal Emulator.

Terminal Emu Config - 2P Event mode.

General - White screen fix. (if needed)

Set your General Network Adapter IP to  the setting of your network card.

 

Windows key+ R

cmd

ipconfig /all

 

Set your Input mapping, also for test mode.

At least test, service, enter switch and D-pad directions for the moment

I used the D-pad, LB, RB, and right stick press for the moment.

 

Now the fun begins, I can not read Japanese, my neighbour can, but I still have not asked him about translating.

 

I'll try to make it clear, here we go.

 

Go into Test mode, by joystick button press when the game boots.

Go to the second line, enter. (joystick right stick press)

Go to the top line, where it says 1, or at least set it to 1 !

The two IC lines should be left off.

The line below that something to do with force  feedback ?

Set the top line to 1 ?

Go to the two character line and press enter to exit this config.

 

Go to  the ninth line, press enter.

You should see a screen with IP adresses.

Go one line above (only choice) and refresh the IP adresses.

Go to the two character line and press enter to exit this config.

I have no idea what the settings are on the two line page, I did not use it in this configuration.

Go to the two character line and press enter to exit this config. 

You should be back at the Test menu start screen.

Press the test button to exit the test menu.

The game should restart.

Stop it for the moment and configurate the joystick / steering wheel as needed in Teknoparrot.

 

Now the settings for the second cabinet (right).

 

Let us set the TeknoParrot settings for Cabin 2 (right)

In TeknoParrot Game specific settings.

Set the game .exe location (wmn5r.exe)

Next check these boxes:

General - Freeplay. (if needed)

Terminal Emu Config - 2P Event mode.

General - White screen fix. (if needed)

Set your General Network Adapter IP to the setting of your network card.

 

Windows+R

cmd

ipconfig /all

 

Go into Test mode, by button press when the game boots.

Go to the second line, enter. (right stick press)

Go to the top line, where it says 1 and set it to 2 !

The two IC lines should be left off.

The line below that something to do with force  feedback ?

Set the top line to 2 ?

Go to the two character line and press enter to exit this config.

 

Go to  the ninth line, press enter.

You should see a screen with IP adresses.

Go one line above (only choice) and refresh the IP adresses.

Go to the two character line and press enter to exit this config.

I have no idea what the settings are on the two line page, I did not use it in this configuration.

Go to the two character line and press enter to exit this config. 

You should be back at the Test menu start screen.

Press the test button to exit the test menu.

The game should restart.

Stop it for the moment and configurate the joystick / steering wheel as needed in Teknoparrot.

 

Start both games on both PC's.

 

Press gas to start the game.

 

Enjoy .....

 

I hope that this tutorial helps other people out.

It takes you a few moments to read, but it took me all night to figure it out.

When you get the game working, thanks to this "manual", please give a thanks at this post.

 

And a BIG thanks for the people who originally uploaded the games, we all can enjoy (if you do it right) !!!

And of course all the people involved in, the game loaders and JVS I/O emulation applications we use, and all the people I "forgot".

 

Also look at the posts below, some members / people add helpful information, thank them also .....

p.s. 

It works fine for me except the red and yellow message,

about not being able to use the passport at the moment. 

When I know of a solution for that, I will update here.

where would i find the actual game files for the pc? not just patches etc etc 

 

[retrokun]

Game dont load  CLR20r3 error. MS NEtframework version 4.7.1
 

[Guest petje]

I found this on the internet

People who play WMMT5 at a higher resolution than 1360x768 will see this

https://imgshare.io/image/wmmt5.hiEHc

The solution is this

https://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/download/tvmw7.html#content

Use these settings

https://imgshare.io/image/wmmt5-1920x1080-recode-settings.hylEu

The difference is

Then you get this

Is there a way to play this offline?

 

Every time I start it without connection I get a warning msg and it doesn't go in game.

 

Any workaround for this?

 

Thanks

I just used that pegases TmpgEncoder and everytime you start it you have to be on the net! Its the most spammy video edit program I ever used, extremely slow too! Although it did do a great job all my videos are at 2k now! Used the NEW release of the patcher for the wmn5r.exe at 2560X1440 worked great too. Although its nice to play this in 2k on my main machine it looks way better on my cab at 1920x1080! Just more defined. Thanks Petje for the info! I would recommend finding a better video edit program though. The main settings are 320 CBR stereo at 44khz, High Quality under other, and your desired resolution. Glad to uninstall that Tmpg though used Revo Uninstaller to be sure I got rid of all its leftovers.

I have been trying to set up a private VPN server for online WMMT5 for a while and it has been a real headache.

Unfortunately some people in the community that has been able to achieve this a while back has been unwilling to share how to do this, which is really sad. Anyways, I have found a solution that works.

 

Download and install SoftEther VPN server for the OS of your choice then configure it as shown in this video except from the local bridge part.

 

There are 2 key changes you need to make.

1. Under local bridge settings create a bridge between your network card and the Virtual Hub you have created. (see picture 1)

 

2. Under Virtual Hub Extended Options is the big one that was the key to it all. Change the BroadcastStomDetectionThreshold to minimum 256. (see picture 2)

This makes the other VPN clients that doesn't run the terminal emulator detect and stay connected to VPN client that runs the terminal server emulator.

Hi Why do you say that WMMT5 dx + would be an ES1 (Linux) dump ????

 

Your explanations are not very clear, please specify them

 

Since the 1st wmmt5 of 2014 and until the last Wmmt6 R of 2019 it is indeed the Namco ES3 system which works with Windows 7

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namco_System_N2

 

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_ES1

 

For information, friends managed to add new cars from WMMT5 dx + to wmmt5 game and it works.  If wmmt5 dx + was a game under ES1 (Linux) system as you say then it might not work while it is working.

U do know that the International Version uses ES1 right? That dump is not the JP release which uses ES3....

Indeed it is specified in this article

http://maximumtune.org/index.php/2016/02/24/wmmt5-international-5dx-japanese-version-differences/

 

This is where the two versions were officially split up. The Japanese version of WMMT5 was running System ES3, and our version of WMMT5 was and still is currently running on System ES1. Because of this major difference in hardware, we were given an alternate version with limited content to satiate the international market for the time being. This is even referenced in the first English WMMT5 Future Lab written by series producer Kazuhiro Maeda:

ca marche impec merci, j'ai tout réencodé en 2K en moins d'une heure,

j'ai gardé le bitrate et son d'origine mais j'ai upscale en 2560x1440+lancoz

 

queques infos pour ceux qui voudraient s'y essayer.

 

original Movies Info : WMV9 compatible WMV8, bitrate 30000, WMA sound 320.

pour tester, le plus simple c'est de reencoder la video d'intro (w5_d00.wmv) afin de verifier si l'encode a fonctionné,
