I'm thinking of making a 2p side of this skin…

I read the LR2 skin specifications and tried playing around with it based on my intuition, but it doesn't turn out well on the 2p side.

Turntable not working correctly

Constantly rotating the turntable in one direction will swap between left/right input, and if I stop moving the turntable, the game registers it as still moving.

About decompiling the app

Lately I'm intrested about this Lunatic Rave 2 being decompiled, to make this program work within 64-bit so much more generous RAM usage farther than 4GB patch, and much more.

However, the app is known to source code lost, so it's not easy to decompile it. The who should inspect all the binary instructions, filter the Visual C++ and DirectX code, and then compose them up. It's not an easy work. Takes millions of hours, and unsure if it's successful.

The bright part is, the latest program is built in debug mode- Since it's debug release, the inspectation becomes far more easy with the PDB file, generated when building the app. With that, the rate for resulting work-as-original codeset gets far more higher too.

So the question is: Is there someone who knows about the PDB file of LR2?

(Note: When LR2 is rebuilt, it's possible that the classic LR2IR doesn't compatible to it. I'll have that issue at MY risk.)

How do you adjust the playfield and note size?

I'm just wondering how to adjust the playfield (as in where the notes first appear and the hit position) and the note size, that's it. The lane cover is off by default.

Does someone know why this skin isn't loading and crashes lr2?

I want to get into lr2 and I wanna use the bluewhite_v2 skin, but for some reason it's just shows up as a black screen. It also freezes when I open the skin selector, then crashes. I tried this on both the SD and HD client, but the same thing happens.

What it looks like before crashing

Can someone help me?

WMIX Download

Does anyone have a copy of WMIX that they can upload? It says I don't have access to the onedrive that most resources have linked.

How to mark songs as favorite?

Hi, as the title says I would like to know how to mark songs as favorite please. The guide says:

https://preview.redd.it/3rl002khtoid1.png?width=640&format=png&auto=webp&s=90b24eb129dbea9c63ddc4eb03c84752cfef83f0

■⑪お気に入り登録と無視
曲をFavoriteフォルダに登録したり、非表示設定にしたりすることができます。

Favoriteフォルダはコンフィグプログラムのカスタムフォルダ設定で表示の設定ができます。
FAVORITE:曲をFAVORITEフォルダに登録します。
IGNORE:曲を通常は表示しないようにします。この場合、鍵盤数:ALL時のみ出現するようになります。

But upon activating folders there is still no favorite option in my game:

Anyone know how to encode or convert BGAs into video?

Was there a way to convert BMS BGA into video?

There are 3 programs listed in here: https://github.com/BMS-Community/resources?tab=readme-ov-file#miscellaneous

Two out of three programs seems simple to use, I've only tried one which was BGAEncoder and followed the instructions according to the readme.txt. But the program crashes once I start encoding, resulting in the program closing by itself.

Any good 5key themes for HD?

I recently decided to use LR2 exclusively for 5 key songs. I was wondering if there’s any nice 5key themes for HD out there (both gameplay and song select) that can get me as close to the old school beatmania experience as possible. As a bonus request, if anyone knows where I can get some random movies for 5key songs just so it’s not a black screen only would be awesome too.

LR2 on Steam Deck

Anybody have any luck getting LR2 running on the Steam Deck? Lutris has support for it, but I can't seem to actually get the game to load past the configuration menu. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[HELP] Need help with saving scores in Lunatic Rave 2 (HD Client)

UPDATE - My issue is resolved. Turns out my installation of LR2 HD got corrupted during setup. I can finally submit scores again. (Hopefully this helps anyone in the future)

None of my scores are being saved regardless if I pass or fail, and it's starting to bother me. If anyone knows a solution, I'd greatly appreciate it.

(I've already signed in with a Player ID on lunatic rave's launch menu and have the LR2 Internet Ranking checked)

Pictures to show my issue.

Edit: I've gotten some songs to show a fail after playing, but not a pass. Player Status

Edit 2: I put the same folder in BeMuSe and someone else had already played it too. BeMuSe Screenshot

Question: Why do people still use LR2?

This isn't supposed to be demeaning, but I'm just curious and couldn't find any answers to this question: Why do people still bother with LR2, when compared to beatoraja for instance, it lacks so many features, is harder to set up and is (apparently) less stable?

Changing local in win11

Hi, i'm new to the BMS community and I actually only played on my PS2 with the originals IIDX games. I'm currently trying to set up LR2 on my win11.
I've changed the country to Japan and the local format to japanese but the game won't stop showing bad letters.
Do you have any clues to make it work ?

Sorry for this newbie post but this is a real pain in the *** x)
Thanks !

Some questions about where to start

I found out about BMS by seeing some artists I listen to put BOFU or BOF:ET in the titles. Having no idea what that meant, I had to dig pretty deep to find out about BMS of Fighters and what bms was. Now I know about this and want to try playing it and maybe even making some.

I currently have lr2 downloaded but I'm trying to work out how to make the next not look garbled, and I'd like to know if there's anywhere you would want to point a brand new user to find songs to play, resources for how they're made, and anything else I should know.

I don't currently know Japanese (I'm learning but I'm not at the level where I can read for shit yet), so any tips you have on working around that would be great as I understand this is a predominantly Japanese community.

Thanks

edit: I have figured out how to change the language in lr2
