[FURR]

What can cause a Wrong Direction problem or flash's not found(at the start i inserted it and it shows that he found it, but when i'm listing the packs the pack isn't found) eaven from 3 restarts it was missing

15 of them are like Dragon Forces and Kamelots
others are short ~2minutes
a lot of screens i got like 90~
whole size is like 122mb

If this is for a USB Flash Drive for ITG to read, you can't have the songs themselves with in another folder in the Songs folder. Meaning it can't be like:

In The Groove 2 > Songs > "Some Pack Name Here" > Songs you actually want to play.

Gotta make sure it's:

In The Groove 2 > Songs > Songs you actually wanna play

And the fact you might have 41 songs on your USB might be an issue, the game could only read so many at a time.

Screenshots aren't really that big of a deal. The pictures aren't that huge.

This is the way my song are located.
Other players got their *Flash* custom songs working... 1 told that she got not too many songs on it.

41 is a lot of songs though. Try removing a couple. The file size of some of the Dragonforce and Kamelot songs might not be helping much either.

Regardless, choose about 20 of them that you like and see if anything changes.

Maximum is 5 MB on flash drives, so that might be your issue.

so one song is 9MB and the other one is 6.4MB
others are less than 5.31MB
mostly 2-3.5MB or less

if you try and play anything over 5mb, the machine will refuse to play it, period. The only way to play songs over 5mb is have them on the machine already, so having them on your usb is absolutely pointless.

Also, the song limit is hardcoded to be 50 from memory, so anything more than that and you'll start noticing missing songs.
Further, the machines use USB 1.1 AFAIK so have slower read rates, and can't always pull all the data off the USB drive within the timeout period (which I think is 10 seconds?)

Having smaller file names only .sm and .ogg files in the folders (no banners, videos, dwi files) can help, as well as having a high speed usb stick, and ideally as minimal as possible data on the stick can help with transfer speeds.

nah... arcade didn't refused to play a song with 9mb
usually it takes some 5-8seconds to find the USB
It Plays Dragon Forces 5.31MB too i played it there a lot of times. Our arcade Laggs a lot epecially on Determinator - default song... There goes such a slow motion that you dont understand where are the arrows going, on the secong part of it. i got now 35 Songs and they are 98,3 MB in Total

Why you taking pope seriously?


Now for your flash problems, I would really consider removing a few songs. Whether the machine can actually play over 5mb songs (which is impossible unless you have oITG iirc) doesn't matter; it still takes a hell lot longer to load them than regular songs. After like 5 or 10 seconds it's just going to stop loading period.
Either that or get a better flash drive, preferably a fast one. You can find a decent one for about $17 or so.
