Strategy SP - Question & Answer thread

[iDOL15]

What I'm trying to ask is does it skip a week if I don't play or have seasonal concerts like the games on the X-BOX?

There aren't any seasonal concerts in SP, though if you don't play it will stay wherever you stopped playing at.

Also, the iM@S Break DLC is now free. Go get your Dako-cat and Cute and Girly costume

(The Xbox version skips a week if you don't play? Are you sure about that...?)

Before I started playing SP, I printed out a walkthrough of the x-box game. The author said it did.

At least you got neat cards with it...XD
*secretly thankful for the free DLC*
...I never bought any of Break but I always wanted that cat XDD

Man. Does it do it subtly or something? I never noticed...I guess I'll have to check that one out (how long does your Xbox have to be iM@S-idle for?). The only way I knew that the game "skips" a week is if your idol has low tension and they ditch work.
Anyway, the SP version doesn't do that, so no worries.

When I found that out, every last bit of regret at not getting the LE of Break 1 just went away. Well, the cards look cool, I guess.

No they don't, everyone knows Fujima Takuya can't draw.

Well, at least I also got one of these

Are there any guides for the various events where you meet up with the idols in Project Fairy?  Sometimes I run into Takane and I just end up randomly picking a choice.

Don't worry about gameplay effects, there aren't any for those extra events.

Quick question, how to I play as Mami instead of Ami?

Quick question, how to I play as Mami instead of Ami? 

Mami goes on the stage during some of the IU competitions instead of Ami. Other than that, Mami'll only show up on the stage as "Ami" with her hair tied to the left so you'll never know :0

I think there's a CFW cheat that'll let you use Mami whenever you want, though.

Recording set-ups in a nutshell.
Left we have the regular way non-CFW option and right we have the pirate way.
Note. images are randomly taken from google and setups don't need to look exactly like this.




Left should be self-explanitory
PSP> Video cable> Video Card> PC> Video capture software

Right
PSP with CFW, remotejoy(lite) plug-in> USB cable> PC>
                                                  Lineout > soundcard> Remotejoy interface> Screencapture software


Pros and cons

OEM
+Doesn't require an exceptionally strong computer
+Easy to set-up
-More expensive
-Video quality is quite bad unless you capture with a component set-up

CFW
+Cheap
+Video looks better than component
-More taxating for your computer than the 1st option, this point is moot if you don't have a dinosaur computer
-If you're new to CFW's and plug-ins you'll need to do quite a bit. Also plug-in compatibility with the pc software is a pain.

This question was asked a few pages back too. Above is the CFW-connection explained by BT2. Otherwise, in one of the Idol Ultimate's Mami performs instead of Ami. And when you use the CFW method and communicate with Mami in the lobby in office mode, she'll have Miki's voiceset.

Hope this helped! Although I didn't do any work really XD

Can somebody tell me how or direct me anywhere on the forum on how to set up a Japanese PSN account?

It's a mouthful to explain, but I used this site to get me set up. It includes an English translation of the pages. Beware, if you set up a Japanese PSN account on your PSP and you already have an U.S./other PSN account registered, you will lose your downloads.

If I'm buying the remix to a song, do I need to Original?
