Found an AWESOME taiko sim. need help though.

[Sacherz]

Okay so I found this taiko simulator that i thought id share.

heres a video of it:

YouTube - God knows

kay so as you can see it has complete graphics and what not..
okay
thing is, the site is in complete japanese and Im not entirely sure how to use this

what i have figured out so far:
you download the simulator here:

É÷¤Î¿á¤¯¤Þ¤Þ¤Ë

okay when you get there see at the top you see a thin rectangle showing the simulator? click download, ull go to another page.
the files BELOW THAT DOWNLOAD LINK are the sim files so get this first.

okay if you CANNOT see japanese letters, regardless, you should see a grey rectangle with the letters He 247188.zip to download. Okay download that, extract it, you now have something known as taikojiro. okay so taiko jiro.exe wont do you any good until we get some sims so read further for more instructions.


then you download the songs here (click the download buttons extrac the .tja and drop it into the SAMPLE folder in the FILE from TaikoJiro)
but then it jus plays the rhythm no graphics no song..


so i noticed other updates on the site ..i wonder if each time he showed an image of what looked like the simulator graphics...that u had to downlolad those to add to yours?
im not sure ?
i dont know how to navigate this site..
if anyone can figure itout please share it here? thanks :d


okay..to navigate that site
go back to

É÷¤Î¿á¤¯¤Þ¤Þ¤Ë

and notice at the very bottom of his posts, theres either 1 word in japanese or 2?
the one on the left (if there is two showing up) i think that takes you to newer posts, the one on the right = older posts which have music and other updates like graphics for idolmaster girls..the explosion for when you perfect time your hits etc.
so if anyone figures out how to put this sim together please let me know? thanks :d



OH FOUND OT HOW TO PLAY IT....

okay push F1 in the sim it should say "auto play off" or on you can toggle this


hit space bar to find ur song

This is very well done. I was able to play God Knows because I happened to have that TV version in my hard drive. I wanted to play JAP but I've never actually heard that version before where it kind of cuts out at the end.

ahh! I was looking for this sim a long time ago... Very nice find! =D
btw there is a very long songlist ...
hope it will works on my pc.
Thank you Sacherz! ^-^

EDIT: okay i was looking at the files. so to get music on the .tja-file it need a .ogg-file... but i don't know, how to get these files! o.o

[Zarcom]

look at the links from other users on that site, there should be a bunch of simfile that contain the .ogg format.

Roughly, a simfile that is 4+ megs = simfile + music.ogg .

I am almost done lining up the images for the emulator, in programming terms, its a matter of understanding "ascii location" (oh joy of joys ).

Update: I am 85% done, the reason being is because I found a taiko skin off of one of the other sites (which was linked from the TaikoJiro site). Anyway, two more things to update.

Note: This will have a 640x480 window, because if I go higher, it will lag. Don't ask me why, I am not the one who programmed it .

Stay tuned.

thanks Zarcom, i hope you'll post it soon~

*rises back from the dead* I will also post a tutorial on how to assign your keyboard keys, to a controller.

So far, I managed to speak with the creator of taikojiro and he told me what I was missing for the combo indicator.

Long story short, I have a working combo system for taikojiro, thanks to AlterGS. So props go to both Sacherz for disocering this AWESOME simulator and to AlterGS for creating it.

I will post the link before I go to sleep tonight.

Oyasuminasai everyone.
