I just started playing ITG again this month in a semi-serious manner, something I've never done before. It used to be just playing a round or two then be done, but hacked machines give more incentive to keep playing. K, question is, how do I know if my USB stick will work? I just bought one before going today and the cabinet wouldn't read it. I know it's not a problem with the reader because my friend uses his. I returned it for a different one, but won't be able to check until next weekend. Is there anyway I can know for sure it will work?

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
I've heard rumors that if a USB has too much space (like 8/16gb) that it wont read it.

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
Copy the data over from your friends USB.
Hacked cabs with odd themes tend to be very finicky. So just change the information in the copied data to your liking (name etc.) and you should be all set.Comment

Eh, that might not work. I only know him from going to the arcade and not enough to ask him to borrow his USB.Какой идиот придумал Бутерброд с дикобраза? Он хулиган и бездельник.Comment

Bring a laptop and do it in front of him?
Thats what I did when I needed to do something similarComment

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
That could work then. I still need to try this new USB first though; maybe it'll work without having to copy his data.Какой идиот придумал Бутерброд с дикобраза? Он хулиган и бездельник.Comment

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
certain USB's work (i prefer attache 2gig USBs) and most of the time 2gig is like the limit. BUT you wouldn't really need more than 2gigs anyway

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
So are you saying mine won't work because it's passed 2gb, or that it will work but only make use of 2gb?Какой идиот придумал Бутерброд с дикобраза? Он хулиган и бездельник.Comment

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
4GB+ flashdrives tend to be more problematic on unmodified machines because of the file system, but I'm not sure why. This is something that was told to me.
This typically isn't the case on machines with OpenITG (I was able to boot a 100GB external on OITG, lmfao). Check to make sure that your card is formatted under FAT32, that's what my 2GB drive is.
EDIT: ALSO - if you card has U3 Smart Technology for ANY reason, remove it and reformat. U3 will stop any USB from loading on a non-OITG machine iirc.Comment

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
The machine is a hacked machine, so are you saying it might possibly work at 8gb? I also checked, it is FAT32.
I probably would've bought a 2gb one because I didn't want to spend a lot of money, but the Office Max near me didn't carry anything less than 4.Какой идиот придумал Бутерброд с дикобраза? Он хулиган и бездельник.Comment

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
While the machine might be hacked, there's a large chance that it's not OpenITG. If your machine has a theme that displays the BPM in-game and has rate mods, you can find out if it's running OpenITG. Pick a song while taking note of the BPM, and pick a rate mod (1.1 to be safe, just for testing). If the in-game BPM display compensates for the increased rate, your machine is OpenITG. Regular ITG machines will not compensate for the change in rate (i.e. you can have a 100 BPM song played on 2.0 rate, it will still show in game as 100 BPM).
Is the machine outright rejecting your drive (making the alarm/siren sound) or is it just not rejecting your songs?
Do you know if your USBs are enabled/disabled? These are things to ask your arcade operator.Comment

Re: ITG Cabinet Question (USB)
1) It does display BPM and has rate mods, but I never used the rate mods so I don't know right now if it's OpenITG.
2) It rejected my first drive which was 4gb, but I haven't tried this 8gb drive yet. I didn't have songs on it; it was a brand new drive with nothing on it.
3) USBs are enabled.Какой идиот придумал Бутерброд с дикобраза? Он хулиган и бездельник.Comment
