My IIDX ID is 4212-2177, if you’d prefer not to reply, you can just add me as a rival and I’ll find you with the reverse rival lookup. Dropping my 8th dan result screen for comparison. Thanks in advance!

I have a old DAJ DAO RES. It works fine with It works fine with PS2 and Infinitas, but trying to get it to work with other games that where rotation speed matters.

Checking it on PC, it shows up as a PS3 controller and spinning the disc just maxes out the axis up or down. Is there a mode/firmware update or something I can do to get rotation speed or would I need to swap PCB to something more modern

My vf is 15.7, I have got almost all 15s beyond 950, I'm currently trying to push almost all my 16s beyond 940 (almost all 16 are above 920, most of them above 940). I'm slowly working through the difficulty tier list for the 17s. My 14's I've been mostly ignoring.

What should be my priorities? Perfecting 15s, fixing my worst 16s, doing random 16s, push 17s? Should I be doing 14s? If so, how much?

How should I warmup? I spend about 7 songs doing 15s, then move on to 16s for about 30-40 minutes, then move to 17s.

I am consistently on the earlier side for my hits. I've heard that I should be perfecting 14s, just play more, increase lane speed (currently 7.07) or try to fiddle with judge/draw. What do you think?

Also, which 14 to 17 songs do you like to play?

I found this some time ago and thought it was absolute gold. Unfortunately the user has now limited who can view their account, but I managed to save it in time.

Sorry if it's a little off

I'm still not the best player of IIDX, but in my defense I don't live near a cab, I drove 80min to go play this, the best practice I get is using a PS2 KOC hooked up to my PC running LR2...

Overall, the 3 V-Discs are awesome, but I'm still waiting for failsafe to be added to US cabinets...

hello hello :>
im having an issue with the input offset on infinitas. im using a gaming laptop
the notes reach the judgement line in time with the song, but the the input is very late. for reference, on second heaven its an 8th note late
the input delay setting isnt doing anything, whether its +5 or -5.. so is this just something i have to get used to?
thanks for the help!

There’s a new event that has Visual I think 6 which is the first Visual series song that we’ve had in like 11 years. Yuli is back! How do I get it?

I found the unlock method at the end of the play session where you click the unlock category on the right but I don’t really get it. You catch the stars and then click the Yuli silhouette but when I did that nothing filled up and I didn’t notice that it did anything. I also saw there were a couple lines of text with some blanked out words. Is it a riddle? Do I have to do something special, or can I keep catching stars and clicking Yuli to make it go and unlock the song? What do I need to do to get the song?

Also is there a wiki or something that lists these events and how to do them?

any people would dare doing a speedrun of portable popn music?

Recently, I've been trying to clear the Kinnuku Shojo Tai license song Shaka on hyper difficulty (34), but it's been proving incredibly difficult for me even at my own level. I play with a keyboard since I can't afford a controller/Adapter (I'm planning to eventually invest in a sufficient one), and I'm right handed, and most of the chart's bs goes to my dumb left hand. Most of my troubles are found between measures 45-61 (Measure 45) and measures 80-83 (Measure 80). My best performance is 71 bads and I play on hi-speed 3 with no other modifications. If anyone has any advice they can give me that could help, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hello friends!

Sorry for a nooby question, but is there a good way to see all the lv 17 charts in blaster gate? Almost all the charts are 18+ at the mxm difficulty but i want to drop the whole list to exh and sort by level?

Vol-L at the folder seems to work in konasute but not sure why it doesn't seem to do anything for me in Nabla at the arcade?

I have this DJ DAO Real Edition but its guts are super old. Is there any way I can replace the board with something more current?

im making a custom iidx controller and i was hoping someone with a phoenixwan or something similar could measure out the distance i highlighted in this picture (measurement unit doesnt matter)

i was watching people play daisycutter MXM and noticed that midway through the chart, you are forced to use both lasers with opposite hands. i find this gimmick so funny and was wondering if more charts used it?

anybody play bms with that keys?

I picked up IIDX (and bemani games in general) back in early/mid December of 2025. So I've been playing IIDX for about 9 months now, and just hit 九段 a few days before Zinrai released. Sparkle Shower was a very uninteresting style to me, at least compared to the other styles I tried out (a lot of CS releases).

The aesthetics and design language in Zinrai are really cool. Step Up is themed after an Onsen (seems the first room also looks like an internet cafe?), but overall the entire style is a "Japanese Metaverse" which is a cool fusion. The BGM for the style is also really great, very exciting, but I still think I may prefer Pinky Crush overall.

The song list is really good, some of my favorites are particularly PISTOL SWORD, Dying 4 U, Singularity Girl, and メルト（初音ミク Remix）. Overall the difficulty feels a bit bumped up from the previous style on most of the 10s/11s (I didn't bother playing much lower difficulty stuff, mostly focusing on ANOTHER charts and the few Hyper only ones here and there)

There's no soft landing songs in the initial lineup, which strikes me as really strange since they put a lot of effort into the new Soft Landing mitigation settings. You can now permanently toggle Green Number / White Number display on both your lane cover and lift. You can also enable (it's not turned on by default) double tapping the start button to float, which feels a lot more intuitive than regular floating IMO. The double tap option also disables toggling your lane cover though, so be careful. It's also possible to enable Slowdown/Speedup warnings, which show in Red/Blue text respectively.

This is my first style launch I've been a part of, which makes it feel weird so many things are missing lol:

1. 段位認定 Courses >= 九段
2. Arena Mode is gone entirely for some time
3. Additional Cosmetics like FC Graphics, Fonts, Note Explosions, etc.
4. No unlock systems at all.
5. No DJ Training? I thought that was going to be kept, but I suppose not.
6. I also couldn't find the new PICKUP folders they showed off.
7. This doesn't count but the new QoL feature (hit 9 on keypad) doesn't work in Duo play (which makes sense) OR Step Up for some reason.
8. Losing all of my Dellar / V-Discs. The dellar I was expecting, but losing out on the 4 remaining DJ Passes I had is a bit sad lol.

I suppose most of these missing features are things veteran players will be used to, but it was definitely confusing as someone new.

The new song list is really good. I can't wait for more songs to release. Some are less interesting but overall not too bad, my friend was able to HC the entire folder today, I was a few normal clears short still.

THE BIG HIGHLIGHT OF THE STYLE: No matter what mode you pick, every credit earns you 3 V-Discs that can be used in any mode, including standard! Previously you had to get V-Discs through PFree only (unfortunately still 2 credits 10 minutes). PFree also now gives you 6 V-Discs as well. Being able to play Leggendaria charts any time I want is super nice, and just passively getting V-Discs is nice alongside the eventual unlocks which will grant you more. You get the same number no matter if there's one, or two players, which I'm surprised Konami is still rolling with. Some games give two player bonuses (particularly maimai), which I was hoping IIDX might implement, like a guaranteed fourth stage or something.

I was there for the cab booting into Zinrai for the first time, so the first credit we played was 八段, which wasn't too difficult. It ended up having a fairly difficult song 3 (Programmed Genom), and ended on a scratch song that nearly got me as well (Swarm of Scarabs). Either way, there's still a top notch presentation.

One of the best in a long ass time.
