Where can I get BM98?

The title says all. The reason I'm asking and not looking is because Google doesn't like me so far this week and is giving me useless crap.

Why do you want BM98? The "Where To Find Beatmania Simulators" sticky topic says it is here, but I'm pretty sure that it's the oldest or second oldest 5-key beatmania simulator.

Yeah, you don't want BM98.

Go with LR2 or Be-patchi

I speak English. Also, what's wrong with BM98?

I couldn't find it on that site either.

The problem with BM98 is that it's outdated and doesn't support things like long notes and stops, which are used in some newer BMS files without any alternative charts (especially in BMS OF FIGHTERS 2009). If you're looking for a beatmania IIDX simulator, go with Lunatic Rave 2, as most BMS files nowadays are made assuming that you're using that simulator.

That doesn't give me a link to a Japenease site. ALso, do I have to download all of the .zips near the bottom?

If you're talking about the Lunatic Rave 2 site, you only need to download the one that says "本体のみダウンロード(beta3 090926 fullset)".

Also, if you don't have any songs, the BMS of Fighters 2009 link has some good songs (click the banner under BATTLE START), and they're very new, so the linkks are certain to work as long as their servers haven't been overloaded.

Also, Lunatic Rave 2 does have an English optionn that translates most of the options, you just have to click "Language" at the top of the config menu.

Ok. I already had a link to Beatmania songs I mistook for samples.

ILIKEAIR57 · 09-29-2009, 07:25 PM

I just downloaded it and encountered ANOTHER problem. I got it on English in the setup, but when I clicked play, there was a popup in a language I don't understand or recognize.

Did you put any folders in the Jukebox? (Drag folders onto the window in the Jukebox1 menu)
It could also possibly be the password, but I think that stays entered from when you first enter it.

Everything's too confusing; i got be-patchi.

ILIKEAIR57 · 09-30-2009, 02:14 PM

Ok, that really sucks. All that plays is the main sample (the one that is much bigger in file size than all the rest). I'll stick with SM.
