Installation

iOS

Join the public TestFlight (click on one of the badges): .

Due to AstroDX's popularity, these groups are very often full. However, inactive testers are periodically cleared, so regularly watch out for open spots!

Android

Download the latest APK from the AstroDX releases page .

Migration

Transferring from AstroDX 1.1/1.9 to AstroDX 2.0

1. Backup your maipaddx/com.Reflektone.MaipadDX folder to somewhere else
2. Install AstroDX 2.0 and open the game at least once
3. Migrate your levels to com.Reflektone.AstroDX/files/levels (for iOS, rename local to levels is enough)
4. Copy chart-meta.fufu into com.Reflektone.AstroDX/files
5. Start the game and your scores should be migrated.

Levels

Where do I download levels?

Join the AstroDX discord for level sharing.

There are also other sources on the Internet, explore and find out!

How do I import levels?

Place them under AstroDX/levels (iOS) or Android/data/com.Reflektone.AstroDX/files/levels (Android) according to this structure:

AstroDX
└───[1] levels
    ├───[2] song
    └───[3] category
        └───[2] song
            ├─── maidata.txt
            ├─── track.mp3
            ├─── bg.png
            └─── pv.mp4

1. All levels and categories should be placed under this folder.
2. An AstroDX level. You can put it directly under levels, or group levels into a category (3) folder. A valid level must consist of at least maidata.txt and track.mp3.

For (2) and (3), the names don't have to be song and category, you can name them whatever you like!

Downloading from Google Drive on mobile devices

You will need to use your device's web browser and enable "Request Desktop Website", as downloading from the Google Drive app is not supported.

• Chrome: Tap on 3 dots (•••) on top right, then tick on "Desktop site".
• Safari: Tap on "Aa"/"大小" on the left of the address bar, then select "Request Desktop Website".

Why do FESTiVAL charts not play properly?

FESTiVAL charts are only supported since v2.0.0.beta.pre.83, so you need to be on that version to play them.

Some charters also support older versions of AstroDX/MaipadDX by providing a "fakefes" chart (for example, slides chained together using tapless slides) and naming it maidata_dx.txt. Due to a bug in AstroDX, maidata_dx.txt will be prioritized over maidata.txt, effectively playing the fakefes version instead of the original. Check the song folder for maidata_dx.txt and delete it if it exists.

Can I delete pv.mp4?

Yes.

All the songs are early/late?

Adjust offset in settings.

I upgraded and the levels disappeared?

Rename AstroDX/local to AstroDX/levels.

Settings

How do I edit settings?

Settings menu is not yet implemented, so you will need to edit settings.json manually:

• iOS: Files -> AstroDX/settings.json
• Android: Android/data/com.Reflektone.AstroDX/files/settings.json

I recommend using a dedicated JSON editor such as Jayson (iOS) and JSON Genie (Android) to prevent common mistakes when manually editing.
