573in1 is a full-featured homebrew maintenance and troubleshooting tool, game
|
|
|
|
|
installer and BIOS ROM replacement for arcade games based on Konami's System 573
|
|
|
|
|
PCB, such as earlier versions of Dance Dance Revolution and other Bemani rhythm
|
|
|
|
|
games from the same era. It currently allows for:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- dumping, erasing and writing images to the onboard flash memory, PCMCIA flash
|
|
|
|
|
cards and RTC RAM;
|
|
|
|
|
- dumping security cartridge EEPROMs and editing the serial number stored in
|
|
|
|
|
them in order to reinstall a game on a different system;
|
|
|
|
|
- repurposing cartridges for use with any game that uses the same cartridge
|
|
|
|
|
type;
|
|
|
|
|
- browsing the CD-ROM, or any attached IDE hard drive or CF card, and launching
|
|
|
|
|
System 573 and PS1 executables.

## Download and usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The latest version of 573in1 can be found on the releases page, accessible
|
|
|
|
|
through the GitHub sidebar. The tool is available in three different formats:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- as a CD-ROM image, usable on any 573 equipped with a CD-ROM drive (including
|
|
|
|
|
ones fitted with BIOS mod boards);
|
|
|
|
|
- as a BIOS ROM image, allowing the system to boot directly into the 573in1 main
|
|
|
|
|
menu (even with no IDE drives connected) and optionally launch a game or
|
|
|
|
|
custom executable automatically;
|
|
|
|
|
- as a standalone 573 executable for advanced users.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the [documentation](doc/index.md) for more information and usage
|
|
|
|
|
instructions. Reading the documentation before proceeding is highly recommended.

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pull requests are welcome. If you wish to add functionality (e.g. game-specific
|
|
|
|
|
menus to manipulate user data, extract assets and so on) feel free to do so,
|
|
|
|
|
however please stick to the following guidelines:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Do not include any code lifted as-is or minimally modified from a game
|
|
|
|
|
disassembly. Rewritten and properly explained/commented code is fine.
|
|
|
|
|
- Do not include any Konami game files or excerpts thereof. If necessary, only
|
|
|
|
|
include metadata about the files such as hashes, offsets, sizes and so on.
|
|
|
|
|
- Store any such metadata as a file in the resource archive (see
|
|
|
|
|
`resources.json`) rather than hardcoding it. If possible, provide a copy of
|
|
|
|
|
the scripts used to gather the data from the original files in the `tools`
|
|
|
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
|
- Adding a section to the documentation covering usage of the newly added
|
|
|
|
|
functionality is not required, but would be highly appreciated.
