System	Reload Songs	--	--	Retrieve the song data list information again.
	DARK	--	[OFF], HALF, FULL	OFF: all display parts are shown. HALF: wallpaper, lanes and gauge are disappeared. FULL: additionaly to HALF, bar/beat lines, hit bar, pads are disappeared.
	Risky	Rel092～	[0] - 10	Set the Risky mode. If it is 1 or more, it becomes FAILED with the number of Poor / Miss times you specified. When it is 0, it becomes invalid and gauge increases / decreases according to DamageLevel settings. It can be used with StageFailed setting.
	Drums & GR	--	[Both], DrOnly, GROnly	Both: Enable both drums and guitar / bass. DrOnly: Enable only drums. [[BR}] GROnly: Guitar / Base only screen is used.
	PlaySpeed	--	0.250, 0.300. ..., [1.000], ..., 2.000	It changes the song speed. For example, you can play slower by setting PlaySpeed = x0.5 for your practice. Note: It also changes the songs' pitch.
	TimeStretch	Rel097～	ON, [OFF]	When set to ON, the music speed is changed by time stretching instead of frequency change, but more CPU performance is used for sound processing. Also, if PlaySpeed is less than x0.900, the deviation of the chip becomes large. This function is effective only when SoundType is set to either WASAPI or ASIO.
	Fullscreen	--	ON, [OFF]	Fullscreen mode or window mode.
	StageFailed	--	[ON], OFF	Turn OFF if you don't want to encount GAME OVER.
	RandSubBox	--	[ON], OFF	Turn ON to use child BOX (subfolders) at RANDOM SELECT.
	AdjustWaves	--	[ON], OFF	Automatic wave playing position adjustment feature. If you turn it ON, it decrease the lag which comes from difference of hardware/OS. Usually, you should turn it ON.
	VSyncWait	--	ON, [OFF]	Turn ON to wait VSync (Vertical Synchronizing signal) at every display-drawings. (so FPS becomes 60) If you have enough CPU/GPU power, the scroll becomes smooth.
	AVI		[ON], OFF	To use AVI playback or not.
	FullAVI	Rel100以降	ON, [OFF]	Forcibly make full screen video playback for the old-spec-based dtx data(AVI). If it is used with BGA, the display will be incorrect.
	BGA		[ON], OFF	To draw BGA (back ground animations) or not.
	PreSoundWait		0 - [1000] - 10000ms	delay time(ms) to start playing preview sound in SELECT MUSIC screen.
	PreImageWait		0 - [100] - 10000ms	delay time(ms) to show preview image in SELECT MUSIC screen.
	Debug Info		ON, [OFF]	To show song informations on playing BGA area. (FPS, BPM, total time etc) You can ON/OFF the indications by pushing [Del] on playing.
	BGAlpha		0 - [100] - 255	The degree for transparing playing screen and wallpaper. 0=completely transparent, 255=no transparency
	BGM Sound		[ON], OFF	turn OFF if you don't want to play BGM.
	Audience		[ON], OFF	To be given cheers at the end of fill-in zone or not.
	DamageLevel		Small, [Normal], Large	Damage level at missing (and recovering level at playing).
	SaveScore		[ON], OFF	To save high-scores/skills in each update, turn it ON. The file [DTX/GDA filename].score.ini would be saved in the same folder where [DTX/GDA filname] is. Turn OFF in case your song data are in read-only media (CD-ROM etc). Note that the score files also contain 'BGM Adjust' parameter. So if you want to keep adjusting parameter, you need to set SaveScore=ON.
	ChipVolume	Rel068 and above	0 - [100]%	The volumes for chips you hit.
	AutoVolume	Rel068 and above	0 - [80] - 100%	The volumes for AUTO chips. (It also affects to the BGM and preview sound... FROM recognizes it as a bug.)
	StoicMode	Rel068 and above	ON, [OFF]	Turn ON to go stoic mode. In this mode, DTXMania doesn't draw *preview image / movie *result image / movie *nowloading image *wallpaper (in playing screen) *BGA / AVI (in playing screen) to concentrate playing stoicly ;-)
	ShowLagTime	--	[OFF], ON	Displays the deviation time (ms) from just timing. OFF: Displacement time is not displayed. ON: Displays the deviation time.
	ShowLagTime	Rel092～	[OFF], ON, GREAT-	In addition to the above, GREAT-: the gap time is displayed except PERFECT.
	Autosaveresult	Rel089～	ON, [OFF]	When set to ON, DTXMania saves the result image automatically in the same folder as the song data when acquiring high score / high skill. The file name of the result image is in the format dtx file name.yyMMddHHmmss_DRUMS_SS.png. It is valid only when SaveScoreIni = ON.
	JudgePriority	Rel099～	[Under], Over	Specify judgment character string and priority of combo display. Under: Display under the chip. Over: Display on the chip.
	BufferedInput	--	[ON], OFF	To select joystick input method. ON=to use buffer input. No lost/lags. OFF to use realtime input. The older DTXMania uses it. It may causes lost/lags for input. Moreover, input frequency depends on FPS (DTXMania checks input in each frame drawing) So I strongly recommend to use BufferedInput=ON. But in case your system has some trouble and it doesn't work well, set BufferedInput=OFF.
	TraceLog	--	ON, [OFF]	Turn ON to log to DTXManiaLog.txt (You need to re-open DTXMania to change this configuration takes effect.
	SoundType	Rel096～	[WASAPI], ASIO, DSound	Choose the sound output method from among WASAPI, ASIO and DSound (DirectSound). WASAPI is available only on Windows Vista and later. ASIO can only be used with ASIO compatible devices. The initial value is WASAPI on Vista and later, DSound on XP and earlier. By specifying WASAPI or ASIO, you can enjoy less delayed performance. * The setting is effective after exiting CONFIGURATION screen.
	WASAPIBufSize	Rel096～097, 099c～	[0] - 99999	Specify the sound buffer size when using WASAPI. When 0 is specified, acceptable minimum size is set automatically.

	WASAPI BufferSize	Rel100	[0] - 99999	Same as the WASAPIBufSize
	WASAPI BufferSize	Rel101以降	0 -[50] - 99999	Same as the WASAPIBufSize, except the default value.
	ASIO device	Rel096～	(Depending on your environment)	Specify the sound device when using ASIO. * The setting is effective after exiting CONFIGURATION screen.
	ASIOBuffSize	Rel096～097 Rel098～ Abolished	[0] - 99999	Specify the sound buffer size when using ASIO. If 0 is specified, the value specified to the sound device is used. As the value decreases, the sound lag decreases, but it may cause sound cracking and abnormal operation. * The setting is effective after exiting CONFIGURATION screen.
	UseOSTimer	Rel099～	[OFF], ON	For DTXMania internal time management, select whether to use DTXMania's own timer or OS standard timer. When using the OS standard timer, the scroll will be smoother, but sound misalignment may occur. (Therefore, even when using WASAPI / ASIO, the effect of AdjustWaves is applied) This function is effective only when SoundType is set to either WASAPI or ASIO.
	MasterVolume	Rel099c～	0 - [100]	Set the overall volume. 0 is silence, 100 is the maximum value. This function is effective only when SoundType is set to either WASAPI or ASIO.

HH-2: LC|(HC&HO) LC and HHs are separated. HHclose and HHopen are grouped. HH-3: LC&HC&HO All LC, HHclose and HHopen are grouped. See figures to understand well. You can also group LC and CY by CymbalFree option (on Rel068 or above).
	FT Group	--	[FT-0], FT-1	FT-0: LT|FT LT and FT are separated. FT-1: LT&FT LT and FT are grouped. See figures to understand well.

	BD Group	Rel093～	[BD-0], BD-1	Specify how to use the hi-hat pedal as a bass drum. BD-0: HP | BD Do not use the hi-hat pedal as a bass drum. BD-1: HP & BD It will use the hi-hat pedal as a bass drum. * If you set BD-1, the Hi-Hat pedal becomes BD and it can be used as a two-bass. * When BD-1, please use HitSound=ON. This is because you can not control the sound of the electronic drum from DTXMania side. * Since hi-hat pedal becomes BD, you can't hit hi-hat open and close separately. So the behavior of HH Group will be changed. Specifically, HH-0 operates as HH-2 and HH-1 operates as HH-3. * HH Priority is also changed to C>P. * When you return the BD Group to BD-0, HH Group and HH Priority automatically return to their original settings.
	CymbalFree	--	ON, [OFF]	Turn ON to group LC (left cymbal) and CY (right cymbal). Whether RD (ride cymbal) is also grouped or not depends on the CY Group setting.
