Please make sure you downloaded your data from an appropriate source.
This guide is unable to troubleshoot any problems related to bad or poorly managed data.

Installing Spice2x

If you already have Spice2x installed, make sure it is up to date!

  • Head over to spice2x.github.io and download the latest release.
  • Extract the spice64.exe and spicecfg.exe files from the archive to your game's directory.

General Configuration

Since GITADORA has a separate mode for both Guitar and Drums, the configuration will be split into three sections.
This section will cover the general configuration that is not specific to either mode.

Open spicecfg.exe, each following sub-section corresponds to a tab at the top.

Buttons

Click on Bind then press the key you want associated with the action.

With your keyboard, configure your keys for:

  • Maintenance: Test
  • P1 Keypad: Keypad 0 to 9, Keypad Insert Card

Cards

Patches

Go through the Spice2x Patching page to import patches.

To prevent issues, avoid patching things you don't need or understand.

Connecting to a Network

Please choose one of the two solutions, not both!

Remote (Online Network)

Open spicecfg.exe and head to the Options tab.

In the Network category, set the following settings:

  • EA Service URL to the URL provided by your network.
  • PCBID to the PCBID provided by your network.

Next you need a card number.
If you don't already have one, generate one in the Cards tab.
To keep your card number safe, create a new .txt file with ONLY it inside.

Once that's done, head to the Cards tab, for Player 1 click Open... and point to your text file.

Local e-amuse Emulator (Asphyxia)

This is covered in the Asphyxia CORE page.

Pre-launch Requirements

These steps are required, otherwise your game won't run.

VCRedist & DirectX

Audio

GITADORA FUZZ-UP currently only supports WASAPI exclusive mode.

  • Open spicecfg.exe.
  • At the very top, click on Shortcuts then Audio Playback Devices.
  • In the popup window, right click on your default audio device, and click on Properties.
  • Go to the Advanced tab.
  • Check both boxes under Exclusive Mode.
  • Open the Default Format dropdown.
  • Pick the 24 bit, 44100 Hz (Studio Quality) option and click Apply then OK.

First Launch

If you have any issues running the game at this point, refer to the Troubleshooting page.

If you've followed all instructions correctly, you're finally ready to launch the game!

First, ensure your guitar or drumkit is connected and run spice64.exe. Press Yes when it asks for elevated privileges.

Upon launching your game, you will be greeted with this BACKUP DATA ERROR screen.

This is normal, simply hit your Test keybind to enter test mode.

From here, we will need to set a shop name to play, so select the GAME OPTIONS option.

Then, select SHOP SETTINGS.

Once inside, select SHOP NAME SETTINGS and name your shop whatever you desire! Once that's done, go down to PREFECTURE and set it to whatever you desire as well. Finally, go to SAVE AND EXIT to get back to the test menu.

The last menu we'll go inside from the test menu is the clock menu. Go inside CLOCK and simply set the clock by hitting SAVE AND EXIT as pictured below.

You're all done! From the test menu, select GAME MODE and the game should boot up!

Carding In

Once the game is done loading, you need to card in.

  • Press your Keypad Insert Card button.
  • Enter your code using your keypad binds.
