Changes

• beatmania IIDX 12 HAPPY SKY marks what appears to be a new chapter in the series, with numerous changes to the difficulty ranking system and modifiers:
  • LIGHT was renamed to NORMAL, and 7KEY/14KEY was renamed to HYPER. ANOTHER is left unchanged.
  • The difficulty scale, which previously ranged from Level 1 to Level 8+, has been expanded to Level 12. Most songs rated above 7 have been rescaled to this new difficulty meter.
  • ANOTHER charts are now individually rated.
  • HI-SPEED settings now range from 0.5 to 4.0 at .5 step intervals.
  • HIDDEN+ and SUDDEN+ are now selectable modifiers. Acting as an in-game towel mode, you can hold Start as the song begins and spin the turntable to set the amount of Hidden or Sudden you want to use. A grey bar will cover up the portion of the screen you choose. These can be combined for HID+/SUD+, but would have to be set for the same distance on both parts of the screen.
  • All difficulty levels for a song are listed now when a song is highlighted, as opposed to just listing the currently selected difficulty level.
  • The LIGHT7 and 7KEYS modes have been combined together into a new mode called STANDARD, allowing you to freely switch between NORMAL, HYPER, and ANOTHER charts as you wish.
    • You are guaranteed at least two songs if the first song you fail is rated 5 or lower.
  • eAMUSEMENT only:
    • The background music for the Select Music screen can be chosen via IIDX Wave. Choices include music from dj TAKA, TOMOSUKE, and DJ Yoshitaka, as well as background BGM from 7th style onwards.

DJ POINT unlocks

The following five songs require a certain amount of DJ POINTs to obtain. How many are required depends on which of five paths you take to unlock the songs.

Regardless of the route you take, each song unlocks in the same amount of points: 100, 400, 700, 1000, and 1300. Order, from top left to bottom right, are as follows:

• VJ GYO: ヒマワリ, Pink Rose, Agnus Dei, Votum stellarum, TOE JAM
• GOLI: TOE JAM, ヒマワリ, Pink Rose, Agnus Dei, Votum stellarum

Hidden Song

To unlock 月光, you must clear ten specific songs revolving around moons, stars, light, or songs sung by Kanako Hoshino (if you have score data of the pre-HAPPY SKY songs being cleared already from beatmania IIDX 11 IIDX RED, you will still need to play them again). The ten songs are as follows in the following games:

• substream: THE EARTH LIGHT
• 5th style: RIDE ON THE LIGHT (HI GREAT MIX)
• 8th style: STAR FIELD
• 9th style: lights, moon_child
• 10th style: Back Into The Light
• IIDX RED: D.A.N.C.E.!, 太陽～T・A・I・Y・O～
• HAPPY SKY: MOON RACE, SPARK!

Once these are all cleared, you'll unlock 月光.

As of September 7th, 2005, 月光 is unlocked for everyone to play.
