This readme covers any matters that are relevant for this hook, only. Anything that applies to all hooks is covered in a main hook readme file including general data setup and a quick start guide.

Versions supported

All known versions supported as long as it uses fully unpacked assets and a nodongle executable.

Data setup

A clean set of data won't work here. You need the dumped and unpacked/decrypted data and a patched executable that runs either on plain zip or files.

All access to files and folders are detoured to one folder, the game folder, which makes setting up everything easier. The game folder contains the typical StepMania folders:

BGAnimations
BackgroundEffects
BackgroundTransitions
Characters
Courses
Data
Logs
NoteSkins
RandomMovies
Save
SongMovies
Songs
Themes

Each folder with the content from the dump.

USB thumb drive/profile support

See instructions on the prohook readme.

Troubleshooting and FAQ
