2. Get SpiceX2 and Asphyxia Core to run the game.

To run the game, you will need SpiceX2 for now as it is the only known tool that supports the latest Sound Voltex Exceed Gear release. 

Download the latest version of SpiceX2 from this link: https://spice2x.github.io/

There is no need to manually changing the service URL in ea3-config.xml if you're using spiceX2 because these options can be customized using the tool.
 

After downloading, place Spice64.exe and Spicecfg.exe inside your Sound Voltex Exceed Gear folder.

You will need to select the option SDVX Disable Camera to run the game, else it will crash after the checking screen.

 

If you're playing with a physical subscreen, you will almost certainly need to use the option Enable SDVX Subscreen Force Redraw in order to get the subscreen running smoothly. 

You might also need to enable the SDVX native touch option if you're getting any input issues with the subscreen but it will take over your mouse input entirely. 

 

Important: If you're using AMD card, you will need to copy the 3 DLL files in spice2x stubs folder to your SDVX modules folder.

• nvcuda.dll
• nvcuvid.dll
• nvEncodeAPI64.dll

 

Make sure your audio settings are set to 16bit and 44100KHz, at least this is what I have tested and the game runs fine with these settings.

24bit and 48000KHz might work on other audio setup but 16bit and 44100KHz is the more common one that is known to work.

 

If game still crash and the error log shows error related to audio device, try to select the Shared Mode WASAPI option in the patcher.

 

You will need card number to have your progress saved on the server or Asphyxia, so just go to the card tab in Spicecfg.exe to generate your card number.

Copy the card number and save it as card0.txt in your Sound Voltex folder.

You can insert the card by pressing numpad + or you can bind the shortcut to insert card in Spicecfg.exe.

 

If you're going to play locally, Asphyxia Core is the way to go. You can download the latest Asphyxia Core and SDVX plugin in the following links:

• Asphyxia CORE: https://asphyxia-core.github.io/
• SDVX Plugin: https://github.com/asphyxia-core/plugins

 

Alternative SDVX Exceed Gear plugin that is very well made by @ovv22 : https://github.com/22vv0/asphyxia_plugins/releases/

The plugin needs to be placed in the plugin folder and you will need to set your service URL in Spicecfg.exe to localhost:8083 in order to connect to the local server.

Once everything is ready, run Spice64.exe to start the game.

 

If you're going to play on a managed server, you can enter the necessary info such as PCBID and server URL in Spicecfg.exe options tab. 

 

Most server will have the option to toggle the USE_CUDA_VIDEO_PRESENTER and SUBMONITOR_VSYNC_ENABLE flag.

You will need to enable them if your game is not running normally but for most of the time, USE_CUDA_VIDEO_PRESENTER alone will do.

 

3. Patching the gaming.

Patching is necessary if you want to play on Valkyrie mode properly, so the better way to do it now is via spice2x import patch from url.

 

 

Go to the patches tab in spicecfg, click on the Import from URL button and apply the URL https://sp2x.two-torial.xyz/ to the field and click in Import.

 

 

The patch options are very self-explanatory but remember to not to patch Unlock All Songs and Unlock All Difficulties as it will cause the game to crash after you're done with Skill Analyzer.

You will need to modify the ea3-config.xml as well in order to play with Valkyrie mode 120Hz refresh rate.

Only run Valkyrie mode in 120Hz because the game is intended to run at that refresh rate on Valkyrie Model cabinets, do not patch higher than 120Hz because the game won't run properly beyond that refresh rate.

 

  <soft>
    <model __type="str">KFC</model>
    <dest __type="str">J</dest>
    <spec __type="str">G</spec>
    <rev __type="str">A</rev>
    <ext __type="str">2024072300</ext>
  </soft>

 

Changing dest option will change your language, J for Japanese language, A for English (Asia/Australia), U for English (America), K for Korean, and Y for Indonesia. Some of the contents are limited to Japan only, so you either go with your preferred for dest, or select the Fake Japan Region in the patcher.

 

Changing Specs will toggle between Nemsys (F) and Valkyrie (G) mode. Nemsys is 60Hz while Valkyrie is 120Hz. You can play Valkyrie mode on 60Hz but option G is necessary and you will need to select the Valkyrie Mode 60Hz option in the patcher.

 

Optional but important: If you're playing on a managed service, make sure your date code is accurate. If your update doesn't come with the bootstrap.xml, you can edit the date code in the ext __type="str line.

 

4. First time knob calibration.
If you are greeted by a purple blinking box:

テストモードでアナログボリュームのキャリブレーションを行ってください。
テストボタンを押すとテストモードに移行します。

 

1. Press the "Test" button that you have configured in Spicecfg.exe.
2. Go to I/O CHECK
3. Go to CALIBRATION
4. Press and hold VOL-L anti clockwise so that you will have the dial run 3 full cycles, then press Enter
5. Press and hold VOL-L clockwise so that you will have the dial run 3 full cycles, then press Enter
6. Press and hold VOL-R anti-clockwise so that you will have the dial run 3 full cycles, then press Enter
7. Press and hold VOL-R clockwise so that you will have the dial run 3 full cycles, then press Enter
8. Go to SAVE AND EXIT
9. Go to GAME MODE

 

If you have any questions, do head to the main topic and ask for help. Most people are very helpful there.

 

Extras

1. Fixing issue with the song Like a Vampire ( thanks to @laflegge for pointing this out )

One known error in 1 song (it does crash) : rename all files in data\music from 1804_likevampire_taka  to 1804_likeavampire_taka   (add an 'a' between 'like' and 'vampire')

 

2. Playing removed songs or add custom content with omnimix

 

3. Using ASIO on SDVX (credits to @1-5-LTC for the guide )

1.download ASIO4ALL in asio4all.org and install it

2.check option:asio Backend to asio(ASIO) in spicecfg-Options

3.fix .dll: DON'T check all WASAPI

4.Opengame now, alt+tab switch out, at this point you should see a green play button in the bottom toolbar of Windows, double click on it to open the asio settings panel.

5.In setting panel, find your voice driver programm and choose it. Open advanced settings at the right gear

6.Check “Always resample 44.1<->48 KHZ” and “Force WDM Driver to 16 BIT”

7.If you hear pops/noises and other unacceptable places, set ASIO BUFFER SIZE until you feel the sound is acceptable and the value is as small as possible.

Alternatively, you can use the SDVX ASIO flag in the latest Spice2X but it will take some trial-and-error attempts before you can find the best settings for your setup.

what should I enter at PCBID and server URL?

[woopie2]

why does it ask a password for the dll patcher?

PCBID is not needed if you play with Asphyxia.

Updated the link to a usable one because the original host decided to rage quit.

[woopie2]

I have patached the game to 165 hz but in song, tis is definitly not 165 hz. I think its because my game lags.

the game is intended for 120hz, don't run higher than that.

[woopie2]

I have patched it to 120 hz but in song, my game runs at 70-80 fps and the note are really not smooth

If you're using DAC, try running the game without DAC.
Also, the reason why the game, note, is not soft is presumed to be because you didn't turn on G-Sync or you didn't set 'Process Priority' to 'high' on the Advanced tab.
At least I solved the problem through the above method.

sadly no? i did updated a link for 2021083100 to 2023042500 earlier but you'll have to get 2021083100 from nyaa unless someone is kind enough to upload it to some other place like pixeldrain.

thank you for the brilliant tuto!

 

asphyxia --dev - this file is missing:

 

\contents\data\graphics\ap_card\ap_06_R0026.png

 

went with your files in first post:

2023121900 base

2023121900 to 2024013001

2024013001 to 2024020600

 

also, is there any chance you can provide a clean "clean data" for 2023121900 base?

the one you link contains certain modifications, indicated by the multitude of patched dll's includes.

 

also, really helpful for working with aphyxia would be, if yoru update packs would contain also the most recent ver# in ea3-config.xml :)otherwise THANK you for the generally good steps in your TUTO!!

 

EDIT:

Just checked. the base is not 2023121900 actually.

It misses: 

Update from 2023120500 to 2023121900

https://pixeldrain.com/u/HbHzjoFP

 

I am going to recheck my asphyxia webui update now.

 

EDIT2:

that missing update was the culprit. after restaging from "Update from 2023120500 to 2023121900" i successfully completet asphyxia web update

Thanks for pointing that out, I've edited the description for the base game.
 

I do not own any data from the links as it's all taken from 1cc board, so I don't have any 'clean' data to be shared. Sorry.

ea3-config don't come with these leaked updates, just update the date code manually.

[RodentVienna]

Well, again, thank YOU for the tuto, for clarifying and taking action! And thanks to people involving, making installs a breeze.

 

We could work on a cleanup.bat further removing useless bloat from base, and adding a url shortcut to the patcher :)

it'll be easier if someone can just repack everything from day-1 until the current latest and upload it somewhere.

[RodentVienna]

now i got a weird problem.

 

I set ea3-config in prop and dev/nvram to AGA, yet I cannot get to display SDVX in English.

My other Installation from 2021 however displays in English (using AFA).

 

Ist this Valkyrie Model related?

you don't need to change anything in the dev folder, just prop will do.

I never seen these files missing before, not quite sure what is happening there on your end.

i just checked an older clean data, the files are not there as well, and the game works in english in my other install. this is weird. even started a file diff for both installations. no indication whatsoever. it may have to do with force J patch, which howver should not change language to J. I check again.

on my adventure to check above instalaltion/upgrade path, I found that the update "KFC-008-2023110700.7z" can be completele deleted from above list, as it is part of KFC-2023102400-to-2023120500.7z

 

you might wanna double check, but i did compare using winmerge for identical textfiles and same-size-binary files.

 

i am prodeeding to check for further missing updates from base. something is fishy, as i cannot get to display AGA in english to the same extent as my old install from 2021.

[RodentVienna]

ok, from what i have checked now, the current upgrade path in first post is correct  (except that one update i referenced in my previous post being useless)

 

My "Language" problem was based on something completely different.

Seems I used a patched "data/graphics/ver06/option_ja.ifs", which shows the "FXL+FXR"-Overlay in Songwheel in English.

 

Obviously that is not in vanilla install

 

I have tried renaming my hacked file to options_en.ifs, and using dest=A it works

This is a nice find, which may enable us to utilize _en suffix for future translations

 

I attached this file. If you want to use it, please place the attached one to"data/graphics/ver06/"

 

Mind, that original file was from version 2021121400, but for me it works flawless in 2024020600 

option_en.ifs

 

EDIT: Cross Referenced in Exceed Gear Translation Post here:

 

might be interesting to offer these 3 translation files to your tuto?

i think it's better if you can prepare the other set of files to revert this just to make life easier for those who wants to use it but then wanted to revert back to the original files.
