STEPMANIA DDR A THEME SOFTWARE
I think I have everything need software wise but I'll need to double check.KENp presents DDR A theme for stepmania 5 Same goes for the video but it can be encoded in divx or mpeg, your choice. The audio has to be recorded in ogg vorbis at 128kbps and I don't remember the exact size needed for the background and banner. The file structure of the step files for ITG2 is different from that of Stepmania and requires that each difficulty have its own file (the file extension I'm not currently sure of but its not dwi, sm, ksf, or any other normally used extension). This is all standard for Stepmania so if you're accustomed to creating files for SM you should be at home here. The hard drive is split into several partitions and I think its the 2nd partition that has the game's data located in the songs folder. You can use a USB hub to connect a flash drive a laptop, and a keyboard if you want easier file management and navagation. If certain software is present such as another build of linux it will boot it up and allow the user to navigate the hard drive provided they have a keyboard connected in the other USB port. The system boot up is interupted when an USB device is present in one of the two USB ports in the front. The ITG2 machine is a little more complicated because it demands that the user has basic understanding of Linux because that's what the machine is built to run on. I am not in any way responsible for what happens legelly / mechanically with your machine should you chose to use these instructions. This HOWTO was made for educational purposes only.

Buildign and selling kits using this method WILL result in legel ramifications by Konami. Please be aware that converting a machine to a SM Machine and using said graphics / songs can and may result in legel ramifications from Konami. I had to go through one hell of an ordeal to be legally sound with DDR Forever's use of said songs / graphics. NOTE: There are legal issues when using Official Konami Graphics / Song. Heres a pic of the machine that I build for Tokyo Game Action in Woonsocket, RI. Any other questions please feel free to ask. I hve used his units and they work perfectly. For the lights, you will need to contact Charles Lohr about purchasing a lights controller. Setting Debounce = 0.060000 stopped that issue for me without hindering performance. AB5 offers a Debounce function that will stop that. With the JPac it often picks up single depressions as double taps due to the way the sensors are set up. You need to use Stepmania CN Arcade Build 5 to make this function right. If you do not the 1P start button will not work right.
STEPMANIA DDR A THEME INSTALL
Install the JPac software and turn of "Shift Keys". Now, using the screw terminals on the jpac run a wire from a ground and a button screw to the service button, because the service button will not work with the JPac regularly. This will allow the JPac to controll the entire pad now, not just 4 of the 8 arrows. Use a small length of wire to bridge Wire 1 of the main connector (black) to Wire 3 of the main connector (white). Now that you are looking at the two controll boards, you will see 4 pad connectors, 1 power connector and 1 main connector running to each board. These panels will be the one to the right of 1P Up and to the left of 2P Up.

Take the screw driver and take the 2 metal panels that cover the pad controll boards off of the pad. Then run the JPac to the computer's PS2 keyboard slot. With the ArcadeVGA installed on the PC run the VGA cord fromt he PC to the JPac. Things you will need: A computer with an AGP Slot J-Pac ((PS2 is better then USB) ArcadeVGA (Screw Driver Wire Things I Recomend: Sound Blaster Live 5.1 Ok, heres the deal.
