                   curated by your friendly neighborhood Eggman

Touhou is an extremely popular series of vertical shooting games of the "bullet hell" or "curtain fire" variety, also known as "danmaku," where enemies not only shoot directly at you, but also fire patterned bullets to weave through. The Touhou game series entails an ongoing story of events set in the fictional realm of Gensokyo, revolving mostly, though not entirely, around incidents regarding the main character, Reimu Hakurei, and the Hakurei Shrine.

The series is best-known for its beautiful bullet patterns, seamless story development, and intriguing character interactions; like typical RPGs, character personalities are well-developed, considering the game type, and the dialogue is infused with both drama and humor, making Touhou fun not only in the combat aspect, but also interesting to watch unfold.

The series was created by independent Japanese doujin soft developer Team Shanghai Alice. The team's sole member, Jun'ya "ZUN" Ōta, has independently developed programming, graphics, writing, and music for the series, publishing 19 mainline games and 13 spin-offs since 1997.

ABOUT THIS COLLECTION:

This collection was originally downloaded from an an all-in-one torrent pack of only the official games by an unknown user. The original torrent content was cross-referenced with unofficial content located at Moriya Shrine (moriyashrine.org), and this collection was born.

Almost all of the extracted content is preserved as-is from the torrent and the website Moriya Shrine. Moriya decided recently to remove a lot of the unofficial content, and still to this day promises to reupload it. It was dumb luck to have grabbed everything before that happened. 

The first version of this collection was pretty messy as I basically just archived the contents as-is, but I've finally found some time to give it more detailed attention and cleaned things up.  

Notable changes:
- dats now separated based on their folders
- all archives were extracted and each folder's contents moved to as close to the top level folder as possible, getting rid of unnecessary folder nesting which for some odd reason was quite common for authors to put their files 3-5+ folder levels deep. 
- Some content was moved to better locations
- some folder names edited to remove redundant info and assist in shortening paths
- unneeded system files removed (Thumbs.db, Mac stuff, desktop.ini, those kinds of things)
- duplicates removed, mostly tools-related (I think I got them all)
- games that are disc images are tagged with CD or DVD, depending on size
- version numbers added if known (I didn't check them all, only on the ones that I was looking at readme's for game info)
- date info corrected to YYYY-MM-DD format

I'm happier with the structure of the collection now. There will still be some imperfections, but someone who knows the Japanese language will have to help with that.

For games that are in disk image format, you can easily extract the contents of them using 7zip.

ISO: right click on ISO file and extract to a folder

BIN/CUE: right click on the BIN file and extract - it will extract an ISO. Then, right click on the ISO and extract to a folder.

IMG: has the same data structure as an ISO, right click on IMG file and extract to a folder. You can simply rename the extension to .iso if you want.

MDF: install AnyToISO Lite (Tools folder). The lite version allows you to extract discs up to 870MB. Add the MDF, then right click and select extract. You can also convert it to an ISO with the convert function. Follow the on-screen instructions.

I think that covers them all.

All downloaded content was extracted using Japanese Shift-JIS name encoding. This was done to ensure the Japanese file naming was preserved and not end up with a bunch of mojibake filenames.  For any remaining mojibake filenames in the collection, they weren't my doing and came in those downloaded archive(s) as-is. NO GAMES WERE PLAYTESTED. All files are intact and unmodified.

The "Fan Content" section had an odd pack of memes and random pictures someone scraped together and shared. This content is long gone off the Moriya site and I have a feeling some of it may never return.  It's included for those that have an interest in such things. This section also has a small handful of game music soundtracks mixed in with their game counterparts. This is how they were indexed on the Moriya website, but they felt awkward being mixed in with the games.  They were moved into their own Music folder.

The official music archives were originally posted as lossless FLAC files, with supporting MP3 versions included as a bonus.  These high quality FLAC files have since been removed from Moriya, then reencoded in a lossy OGG format and reposted. This is very unfortunate for audio purists.  I'm not including these OGG format files as there is no point in preserving lossy, lower quality files when the lossless FLAC files are available. No audio files were converted after downloading, they're provided as-is. I am only archiving the official music soundtracks, and have no interest in archiving the massive amount of fan content that has been created and is easily available.  If you are truly interested in Touhou music, I would highly recommend visiting nyaa.si, searching for "touhou music", and taking a look at the torrents created by Connor_CZ. Last time I checked, the TLMC v5 torrent clocked in at 4.4TB, which is definitely beyond the scope of this collection.

If you're trying to read included .txt files, be sure you are using a decent text editor such as NotePad++. A lot of the text files were originally written on Japanese computers and do not use UTF-8 character encoding - they use Japanese Shift-JIS encoding. If some or all of the text looks like random characters, your text editor opened the file in the wrong encoding format. Change the character encoding format in your text editor to Japanese Shift-JIS to correct the text. How? From the menu in Notepad++, select Encoding > Character Set > Japanese > Shift-JIS.

An example of what text would look like if opened with the wrong character set:
UTF-8:
‚±‚Ì‚b‚c‚Í“Œ•ûProject‚Ì‘S‚Tì‚ð”[‚ß‚½ƒfƒBƒXƒN‚Å‚·B–{ƒ\ƒtƒg‚Í

Shift-JIS:
このＣＤは東方Projectの全５作を納めたディスクです。本ソフトは

False-Positives:  There are currently no archives in the collection that trigger false positives.

Passworded RARs: There are two RAR archives that are intentionally password protected by their author. These RAR's contain secret content that requires you to play the game, then answer the question presented to extract the secret content. The RAR's are presented as-is.  Good luck!

	Fan Content\Games\Rhythm\StepMania - Touhou Pad Pack 6 - Scarlet Festival Gathering [Gpop]\sakura+sakura [CondorTalon]\secret\The Secret Song (Audio and Graphics).rar

	Fan Content\Games\Rhythm\StepMania - Touhou Pad Pack 6 - Scarlet Festival Gathering [Gpop]\Yuanxian of Splittercore [CondorTalon]\secret\The Secret Song (SM File).rar

Passworded Zips: there are five (5) games that protect some of its game content within password protected zips.  Only the game knows the password, so there's nothing I can do other than simply include the zips as-is.  

Password protected zips will be detected as corrupt by RV. In order to rebuild these archives with RomVault, you'll have to rename the .zip extension to something else (eg. .zip_), then rescan the file and RV will rebuild the zip as a file.

	- Fan Content\Games\Other (Lacking Info)\[Team Shanghai Alice] Danmaku Amanojaku Gold Rush [Unofficial]\gamedat.zip
	- Fan Content\Games\Shooting\2D - Others\[Lonhong] Touhou Phantasm Dream\data.zip
	- Fan Content\Games\Shooting\2D - Others\[Lonhong] Touhou Phantasm Dream\mod.zip
	- Fan Content\Games\Shooting\2D - Others\[Unknown] Battle Amanojaku - Shatter All Spell Card\gamedat.zip

This zip is not even a zip, but its named as such and I don't know if the game needs it, so it stays:
	- Fan Content\Games\RPG + SRPG + RTS\[SRPG]\[Feathered Melody] Story of A Lost Sky (v1.1.1c)\library.zip

Unknown Zips: There are a few other zips I could not determine if they could be extracted or needed to remain as zips for the game to use. These zips are currently left as-is. In order to rebuild them with RomVault, you'll have to rename the .zip extension to something else (eg. .zip_), then rescan the file and RV will rebuild the zip as a file.

	- Fan Content\Games\RPG + SRPG + RTS\[RPG]\[Cross Lodge] Fushigi no Daibouken Cirno Kenzan 2\jre\lib\deploy\ffjcext.zip

That's all the notes for now.  Enjoy the collection!

01) Intro

	This pack is intended to be a 'one-stop shop' for anyone wishing to play the
	official Touhou Project games in English and/or Japanese. It should allow a
	complete, optimal playing experience, without having to track down and
	install a dozen different patches and tools separately.
	
	As of this version, it includes:
	
	- Original Japanese versions of every official game to date
	- The latest build of thcrap, for playing games in other languages
	- English-patched versions of games not supported by thcrap
	- DOSBox-X, an emulator for playing 1 through 5
	- Vpatch, which provides various utilities for older Windows games
	- THPrac, a powerful practice tool which can also fix several bugs
	- A DirectX converter, for fixing some serious issues in Windows 10
	- A key remapper, for custom controls or playing on non-QWERTY keyboards
	- DiskExplorer, a utility for viewing and editing PC-98 disk images
	- Rollcaster, a netplay utility for 7.5
	- Adonis, a netplay utility for 9
	- SokuRoll, a netplay utility for 12.3
	- The AoCF Netplay Patch for 15.5
	- TH19P2vP, a netplay utility for 19
	- This readme, which explains how to use everything



02) Playing Games in English Using thcrap

	The Touhou Community Reliant Automatic Patcher is a tool which allows games
	to be played in English, or any of several other languages, by dynamically
	patching them as they run. It requires an initial setup process, during
	which it will detect which games you have installed and ask which language
	patches you'd like to apply. It is highly customizable, but to get started
	with a basic setup:
	
	- Launch thcrap.exe and follow the directions.
	- You will likely want to select "English language pack" at the top, or
	select a different language from the dropdown menu in the bottom option.
	- When finding games, use "Find games in a specific folder...", and select
	the root folder of this torrent, called "Touhou Project". (The tool should
	automagically choose the correct executables for each game; see the Notes
	section below.) 
	- Create shortcuts where you prefer, probably in the thcrap folder or in the
	games' folders.
	- Once setup is complete, launch the shortcuts to play the games with your
	choice of patch applied.
	
	This process only has to be done once for first-time setup, and once
	whenever a new game is added. Unless you configure it otherwise, thcrap will
	automatically check for and apply updates each time you launch a game.
	
	Currently, thcrap fully supports every Windows game except for 7.5, 10.5,
	12.3, and 13.5; hardpatched English executables are included for those games
	instead. (Note that 15.5 includes official English translations, so neither
	thcrap nor a hardpatch is necessary.)
	
	Much more info about thcrap, including advanced configuration and usage, can
	be found at the Touhou Patch Center; see the Links section below.



03) Using vpatch

	Playing older Windows games through vpatch reduces input lag, allows the
	games to played in a window of arbitrary size, and fixes a few odd bugs in
	specific games. Though it's called a patch, it doesn't affect the existing
	game files, and instead runs alongside the game.
	
	The full instructions can be found in the vpatch folder's readme files, but
	for a basic summary:
	
	- Copy vpatch.exe, the game-specific .dll file, and vpatch.ini into the game
	folder.
	- Edit vpatch.ini to change your desired settings. Most of them are self-
	explanatory.
	- Launch vpatch.exe, rather than the game executable, to play.
	
	Additional setup is necessary for 6; see the Notes section for details.
	
	A separate version of vpatch is required to use alongside Adonis; see the
	Notes section for details.
	
	In this release, vpatch has already been added to and configured for 6, 7,
	8, 9, 9.5, and 10. Files for other games are available in the vpatch folder.



04) Playing PC-98 Games

	Simply launch th##.exe (Japanese) or th##e.exe (English) to play.

	This greatly simplified system has been borrowed from "The Touhou98
	Experience" (see the Other Packs section below). These executables
	automatically configure and run the included emulator, DOSBox-X, with your
	game and language of choice.

	If you would like to access the original game files for any reason, such as
	using another emulator or viewing contents in DiskExplorer, they are located
	in (TH01-05)\disks\.

	More details can be found in (TH01-05)\readme.txt.



05) Auxiliary Tools

05a) Using thprac

	THPrac is a powerful and feature-rich tool which is mainly focused on
	adding, improving, and extending practice modes in mainline games. It is
	included in this pack because of its additional ability to fix bugs in some
	games which would otherwise prevent correctly viewing legitimate replays.

	There are full instructions on the project's homepage (see the Links section
	below), but to get started:

	- Launch your compatible game of choice.
	- Launch thprac.exe. A prompt should appear if it finds the game correctly.
	- Once thprac is running and attached to the game, you can access bugfixes
	(among other features) by pressing F12.
	- For the full practice mode options, proceed through the Practice menus
	normally, and you'll be presented with an additional thprac menu as the
	last step.
	- In-game, you can press Backspace for additional options.
	
	There are many game-specific features and idiosyncracies, so again, please
	consult the full instructions.



05b) Using the DirectX Converter

	The DirectX converter replaces certain functions of the DX8 library with
	versions from DX9. This is mainly intended to fix the issue of uncapped
	framerate when playing 6 on Windows 10.
	
	To use it, simply place both included files into the game folder.
	
	In this release, the converter has not been added to 6 by default, since it
	should only be used if necessary.



05c) Using the Key Remapper

	The key remapper is a simple but powerful tool which remaps keyboard inputs.
	This is useful for playing Touhou on non-QWERTY layouts, or just for setting
	up custom control schemes.
	
	The remapper affects your whole system, so it can be launched at any time
	before or after launching a game.
	
	To configure which keys are remapped to which inputs, simply edit
	Remap_Keys.ini before launching. It's thoroughly commented, so everything
	should be obvious.



05d) Using DiskExplorer

	DiskExplorer is a utility for viewing and editing the contents of PC-98 disk
	images. It can be used to apply patches to, extract score files from, or
	otherwise mess with the PC-98 games.

	To open a game:
	
	- Launch editdisk.exe.
	- A file selection dialogue will appear; select the .hdi file.
	- For the disk type, select Anex86 HDD.
	- From here, you can drag-and-drop files in and out.
	
	Be aware that changes to disk contents are saved on the fly.



06) Netplay Tools

06a) Using RollCaster

	RollCaster is a tool which enables netplay in 7.5. To use it:
	
	- Edit config_rollcaster.ini to change your settings; the file is thoroughly
	commented, so everything should be obvious.
	- Launch RollCaster.exe, select the appropriate option (probably host,
	connect, or spectate), and follow any prompts.
	- If all goes well, the game will launch and immediately go to the character
	selection screen.
	
	In this release, RollCaster is already added to 7.5.



06b) Using Adonis

	Adonis is a tool which enables netplay for 9.
	
	Two versions are included; the original Adonis has both an English and a
	Japanese version, while the improved Adonis2 is only in Japanese.
	
	Using the program is simple: 
	
	- Edit adonis_config.ini or adonis2.ini to change your settings, including
	the game window size and the default IP to connect to.
	- Launch your chosen version and language of Adonis and follow the prompts.
	If all goes well, it will launch the game for you and immediately connect,
	taking you to the difficulty selection screen.
	
	If you wish to use Adonis2 with the English-patched version, you'll have
	to rename th09e.exe to th09.exe. (You can change the Japanese version to
	whatever else, such as th09j.exe.)
	
	If you wish to use vpatch alongside Adonis, a separate version of vpatch is
	necessary; see the Notes section for details.
	
	Adonis is not currently compatible with thcrap, hence the inclusion of an
	English hardpatch of 9.
	
	Keep in mind that 9 and Adonis are known for being finicky, and netplay
	probably won't work on the first try. Setting the game and Adonis
	executables to Compatibility Mode for Windows XP or Vista may help. You'll
	also have to make sure that both players' controls are configured properly.
	
	In this release, Adonis is already added to 9.



06c) Using SokuRoll

	SokuRoll is a popular tool which improves netplay in 12.3. To use it:
	
	- Run 'Launch Hisoutensoku + sokuroll.bat', rather than launching the game.
	(You can also do this manually by first launching the game, then launching
	SokuRollLoader.exe.)
	- If it loads properly, the title bar will contain "Ver1.10ac+ R 1.3"
	- Once it's running, connect through the game as normal; no further special
	action is necessary.
	
	You will only be able to connect to other players who are using SokuRoll.
	
	In this release, SokuRoll is already added to 12.3.



06d) Using the AoCF Netplay Patch

	This patch is a popular tool which improves netplay in 15.5. To use it:
	
	- Simply launch th155n.exe, instead of the game executable, to play.
	- For use with thcrap, place a copy of Netplay.dll in thcrap\bin\ and launch
	the game via the shortcut as normal.
	
	In this release, the patch is already added to 15.5, and Netplay.dll is
	already added to thcrap.



06e) Using TH19P2vP

	This tool allows direct peer-to-peer netplay in TH19. To install it:
	
	- For use with thcrap, place the contents of "with_thcrap" in thcrap\bin\.
	- Otherwise, place the contents of "without_thcrap" in the game's folder.
	
	Note that if both are installed, the patch will work when the game is
	launched without thcrap, but the game will not run if you attempt to launch
	it with thcrap.
	
	To use the patch:
	
	- Launch the game as normal. An alert window will appear; click "OK" and the
	game should open.
	- A window will appear superimposed on the game's upper-left corner.
	- From here you can set a delay level (probably between 6 and 9) and wait
	for a connection with "start as host", or enter an IP and connect with
	"start as guest".
	- Once connected, the host must choose VS Mode > Human vs Human.
	
	More info is available in the patch's own README.
	
	In this release, TH19P2vP has not been installed by default.



07) Important Notes

	TH01:

		The default version of th01.hdi included in this pack is the
		"Anniversary Edition" by the ReC98 project, a patched version which
		fixes many bugs from the original. An untouched copy of the original is
		also included, marked "(original)" in the filename.


	TH04:

		The default version of th04.hdi included in this pack has been patched
		to fix some bugs which can cause the game to crash. These fixes do not
		affect gameplay. An untouched copy of the original is also included,
		marked "(original)" in the filename.


	TH05:

		Depending on your emulator and system setup, the English version of 5
		may crash after completing the Extra, but before recording the score/
		replay. The exact conditions which cause this bug are unknown, so
		attempt it at your own risk.


	TH06:

		To use vpatch with 6, the game executable must be named 東方紅魔郷.exe.
		(Just in case it doesn't display properly, that's the title, 'Touhou
		Koumakyou', in kanji. U+6771, U+65B9, U+7D05, U+9B54, U+90F7.)
		Additionally, if your system locale is not set to Japanese, use
		AppLocale (or your equivalent software of choice) to launch vpatch.

		That aside, 6 is notoriously buggy, so you may need to search out
		troubleshooting tips on the web to fix any issues you run into.


	TH09:

		A hardpatched English executable is included for use with the English
		version of Adonis. For in-game text to be displayed correctly when using
		the hard patch, you must install Cirno.ttf to your Fonts directory;
		merely having it in the game folder won't work.
		
		To use vpatch alongside Adonis, swap out the three normal vpatch files
		which are already included in the folder with the three alternate files
		located in vpatch\vpatch_adonis\, then launch Adonis as normal.


	TH10.5:

		No netplay tools are included for 10.5 because if you want to play 10.5,
		you should just play 12.3 instead. Anyone who specifically wants to play
		10.5 is an Alice player, and should under no circumstances be trusted.


	TH12.3:

		Since 12.3 is essentially an expansion pack to 10.5, you'll need to link
		the two together to have the full roster in 12.3. To do so, edit
		configex123.ini in the 12.3 folder, and under [th105path], set 'path'
		equal to the location of your 10.5 folder. (If you put both folders
		from this release in the same location, and don't rename them, the
		correct path is already set.)


	TH15.5:

		The previous release of this pack included a beta version of 15.5 (1.19
		beta 4), which used to be the preferred version for netplay. However,
		the latest official version (1.21b) incorporates the changes from that
		beta, and is now the recommended version for netplay. Thus, this release
		only includes 1.21b, as it should be the only one necessary going
		forward. Just be aware that you may still find people talking about or
		playing on 1.19 beta 4 occasionally.


	Game With Netplay:

		Some versions of Windows 10 may not allow creation of a firewall rule
		for any executable with a "~" in its absolute path. (Yes, really!) If
		you're having trouble getting netplay working, consider renaming the
		game's folder to remove the tilde as one troubleshooting step.


	Windows Games:

		Each Windows game includes a "story_e" folder, which contains English
		versions of whatever plot-relevant information is included with that
		game, as well as the afterword if it's available. That also includes
		material from the official websites, for games which have them.


	All Games:

		To access config, scores, screenshots, and replays:

		- For 1 through 5, these are stored in files within the .hdi file, so
		you'll need DiskExplorer (or a similar tool) to add or remove them.
		- For 6 through 12.3, 13.5, 14.5, 15.5, and 17.5, they're stored in the
		game folder.
		- For all others, they're stored in ~\AppData\Roaming\ShanghaiAlice.


	thcrap:

		To configure thcrap to run games with vpatch, select the vpatch option
		for those games when detecting them during first-time setup; the tool
		should do this by default, but you can click the "..." button on each
		entry once it's found games to make sure. (You can also modify existing
		config files; see the Touhou Patch Center's site for detailed
		instructions.) To do this with 6, a special version of the vpatch .dll
		is necessary; it has already been included in this release.



08) Running Games in Fullscreen

	Aside from the newer Tasogare Frontier collabs, all Touhou games are
	designed to run at a 4:3 aspect ratio. When running them fullscreen on a
	non-4:3 display, this intended aspect ratio may get ignored, in which case
	the window will be distorted to match the display's dimensions. If you play
	on a widescreen display, and fullscreen games aren't letterboxed (ie, with
	black bars on either side), then your display is not honoring the game's
	aspect ratio, and you'll have to use GPU scaling instead. Fortunately, this
	is easy to enable:

		For Nvidia Cards:
		
		- Open the NVIDIA Control Panel by right-clicking on your desktop.
		- In the left menu, go to Display > Adjust desktop size and position.
		- Under the Scaling tab, select "Aspect ratio".
		- In the dropdown below, select "GPU".

		
		For AMD Cards:
		
		- Open either the AMD Catalyst Control Center or AMD Radeon Settings by
		right-clicking on your desktop.
		
			For CCC:
			
			- In the left menu, go to My Digital Flat Panels > Properties.
			- Under Image Scaling Preferences, check Enable GPU up-scaling.
			- Below, choose Maintain aspect ratio.
			
			For Radeon Settings:
			
			- In the top menu, go to Display.
			- Turn GPU Scaling on.
			- For the Scaling Mode, select Aspect Ratio.



09) Tips for New Players

	Hold Shift for focused movement.

	Before starting a game for the first time, read the manual. Newer games
	(since 13) have translated in-game manuals, but you can find detailed
	explanations of mechanics for every game on the Touhou Wiki.
	
	Additionally on the Wiki, you can find many optional game tools and
	modifications not included in this pack.



10) Running Games on Linux

	This pack is intended for use on Windows, and as such no guarantees are made
	regarding running any components on Linux. However, if you wish to attempt
	it, these procedures should more or less work. More information is available
	on the Wiki.

		PC-98 Games:

			Neko Project II Kai is the recommended emulator. It is not included
			in this pack; see the Links section. Be sure to use the IA-32
			version (xnp21kai) and configure all the necessary settings so that
			the games run smoothly.


		Windows Games:

			In most cases, the games can simply be launched from within their
			own directories with Wine, although the LANG variable should first
			be set. For example:

				$ LANG=ja_JP.UTF8 wine th##.exe


		thcrap:

			To launch the shortcuts generated by thcrap, use Wine's "start"
			command. For example, from the shortcut's own directory:

				$ wine start "th## (en).lnk"

			Or from anywhere, with an absolute path:

				$ wine start /unix "/absolute/path/to/th## (en).lnk"

			Be aware that the included build of thcrap may not be able to
			connect to the patch server. In such a case, in order to add new
			patches or update existing ones, you'll have to manually download
			and add them to thcrap/repos/.
