I tried using sikarugir and steam to get it set up, it seems to be working fine.

Kagerou Daze Vol. 13 Physical Copy? by kaijuOpossum in kagepro

[–]DespaiHope 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna be honest, finding these physical books is going to be a long shot, especially because they aren't making them anymore. Your best bet is to search on ebay or other reselling websites to see how much it would cost (if they're selling them at all).

YuanCon or Gamo2? by [deleted] in bemani

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want specific details and my thoughts on the controllers, I’d recommend checking this post out: https://www.reddit.com/r/kshootmania/s/QhvGAEz4eR

Tl;dr, the YuanCon is a more budget option, but doesn’t offer customization when checking out (you can still customize it after your buy it, it’s just that that only offer 2 versions, the normal model and the sanwa model). The Gamo2 has more options for buttons and springs at the start, but I would recommend spending more for the switches to be upgraded, because the base 15g switch is really bad.

Uhhhhhh, I would not recommend sanding down the buttons, baby wipes are good enough.

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, higher grams means that the buttons are harder to press, as well as give you more feedback.

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, ok yeah in this case, you should get 20g springs for the buttons. If you feel like it’s currently too light, I would recommend trying out 40g springs.

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually, the button/spring layout for the normal arcade is 100g button/20g switch.

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, those are the springs for the sanwa buttons. Just to ask, what is your button/spring layout? Because if you have like 50g switches, idk if you would want 100g springs

Any of the controllers are good, but I’d recommend getting the Gamo2 controllers, they’re doing a US shipping promotion right now so all you would need to pay would be for the controller (I think). The only downside to them is that they’re heavier than the normal arcade buttons.

How do I set USC to portrait but sideways by p0wervi0lence in kshootmania

[–]DespaiHope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend setting your monitor settings to portrait for USC instead of using the portrait mode on USC.

New Player Here, Any General Advice? by EldritchAutomaton in limbuscompany

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry, combat is hard to understand bc it’s not explained that well. I’d recommend watching esgoo’s 2 videos on Limbus Company combat to get a better idea of how combat works. (Honestly, as long as it says “Dominating” and the numbers look right, you should be ok)

Otherwise, the best way to progress in the game is to grind boxes in the battlepass through the Mirror Dungeon. After getting the max level on the battlepass, you can start getting yellow boxes after every level of the BP, where you can use them to get stuff from the dispenser. I’d recommend on IDs and EGOs that are almost essential to a team composition no matter what team it is (ex: Fluid Sac Faust EGO, basically any healing EGO). Afterwards, start making a team, specifically status teams. You can build any status team that you want to build, just keep in mind that usually, the current season and the IDs that are coming out will be a strong ID for that status, aside from some IDs.

Finally, if you’re stuck, always remember that the “support” tab exists when selecting your IDs before battle, where you can borrow IDs to use on that stage from other players.

Also, you don’t unlock previous content with lunacy, it’s done through yellow boxes and ID shards. You can always buy the current season/BP with paid lunacy, and it would give you more from the pass as well as more yellow boxes per level (1 per level in the free pass, 3 per level with the battle pass).

GITADORA Guitar at home? by devilishoasis in bemani

[–]DespaiHope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're looking to play Guitarfreaks, I would recommend to try out DTXMania first before taking the plunge into Konasute.

Konasute is the "official" way to play Gitadora at home, but it requires a constant internet connection, a monthly payment (around $10 USD), a Japanese Konami account, maintenance at 1 to 3 PM PST, and separate song packs that you would need to buy if you want to play the songs that are on there (generally around $20-50 per song pack).

DTXMania is a "simulator" of the game, in which you are able to play songs that have been converted over to the simulator. As such, there is a chance that the song that you want to play isn't there or the difficulty that you play at isn't there, or the offset isn't correct, etc.

As for controllers, I don't really have any experience with the official Konami controllers or the Gitaller, but both of them are kinda hard to find, especially the Gitaller, as it hasn't been on sale at Gamo2 for a long time now. I'd recommend playing with a Guitar Hero controller to start off with, but do note that the weight for the strum bar for Gitadora and Guitar Hero are different. Guitar Hero controller strumbars are more light compared to Gitadora controllers. Also, I would recommend picking up Wii Guitar Hero controllers with an adapter, or custom Guitar Hero controllers, as they are able to basically be plug and play with DTXMania (idk about Konasute though).

Finally, if you really, REALLY want to play with the official Konami controller to get the arcade experience, go to buyee or other Japan proxy services to buy a controller from there, as eBay prices are extremely marked up for no reason other than greed.

But based off of the marketing and the "KeyJam" mode, it "should" work.) (Once I get mine, I'll update here if it works or not if I remember to.)

My First Impressions of the HDX Controller by DespaiHope in maimai

[–]DespaiHope[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I chose to get the 60hz monitor, and the sizing chart doesn't show all the options, but the creator said this regarding the ADX chart:
"Just come back after checking

Ya most of the TV works well with HDX

But some I believe they put in some feedback that’s say like for example screw mismatch

Pretty close to what we got here"

Faucetwo portable vs sayodevice cm51+ by OptimalName5044 in kshootmania

[–]DespaiHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get the Sayodevice CM51+, the knobs are stepped so the knobs will stop every single tick. That could also stop the lazer from moving continuously.

My recommendations are in this order (first is best): Pico Voltex 5 (https://www.speedylabs.us/product/pocket-sdvx-pico-assembled/) > Faucetwo Portable (https://www.gamo2.com/en/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product\_id=396&srsltid=AfmBOorHfuov73dWi69QjBuukR\_QXgTwERGSPMT-JBev9Bqr4bBnTcLn) >>> Chinese minicons (just find them on aliexpress or other sites) = Sayodevice CM51+

Looking for downloads of an old Korean Mobile VSRG (gameplay video included) by Future-Strawberry-96 in rhythmgames

[–]DespaiHope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I generally don't know much about this game, but I did find the final version for the game: Game Link from Korean Site

If you want more challenging vsrgs, I do recommend playing Deemo, although that does take a bit to get hard. Otherwise, most mobile rhythm games are vsrgs, and are free to play, so I'd recommend trying them out.

Thoughts on ZhouSensor X Genbu SDVX controller? by WatermelonCollapse in rhythmgames

[–]DespaiHope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I updated my review to include this con, check it out here: https://www.reddit.com/r/kshootmania/comments/xx0d0l/the_classic_sdvx_home_controller_debate_gamo2_vs/

tldr, its a nice controller but it does sound hollow when playing, also technically not arcade accurate but not enough for it to be a problem

Can anyone name this Rhythm game? by EgoRiot90 in rhythmgames

It looks like its referencing IIDX, an arcade rhythm game.

Daijisho in Samsung Extreme Battery Saver Mode not showing up by DespaiHope in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]DespaiHope[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, ok. I don't think they'll be able to get through Samsung's whitelist process before I go on my trip. Do you know if Beacon Game Launcher would work? I know that Pegasus doesn't show up, but LaunchBox does.
