BMS is a file format for rhythm action games, devised by Urao Yane in 1998. The format was originally developed as a format specific for a simulator of the game Beatmania by KONAMI, and currently the term BMS is widely used to describe the whole Beatmania simulating game system.
The acronym has been confirmed by Urao Yane to be Be-Music Source in the official BMS format specification.[1]

Gameplay[edit]
Similar to the Beatmania and Beatmania IIDX series, the purpose of the game is to hit keys as notes fall from the top of the screen to the judge line.
When the player hits the notes with the proper timing, a gauge will fill up. When the player misses a note, the gauge will drain.
In addition to the normal notes, there are also long notes where the player needs to keep holding the key until the note ends and mine notes that will explode and drain the gauge if the player is pressing the key when they hit the judge line.
To clear the game, the player's gauge must be filled to a specified level at the end of the song.

BMS songs[edit]
Most BMS songs are original songs made specially for the game, because the BMS format requires the sounds that compose the music to be separated into small pieces, thus making it hard to use preexisting songs to be made into a BMS.
Currently most BMS songs are distributed in BMS events, where usually several artists publish their songs and compete for scores. The largest BMS event is the BMS of Fighters (BOF) held by AOiRO_MANBOW where more than 250 songs are presented each year.

Basic Format[edit]
The .bms file describes how notes are arranged and how the game responds when the player takes a specific action. It is a plain text file with 'directive' lines starting with the # character.
Each directive line is formatted in the form below.
Each directive line is formatted in the form below.
The space between the definition setter and the definer is required.
A .bms file is generally composed of a header field and the main data field.
Below is a simple example of what an actual .bms file will look like when it is opened by a notepad.

Commonly used header field components[2][edit]
Commands existing from the original BM98 used in the original .bms extensions.[3]
#PLAYER Defines play style. 1 for Single Play, 2 for Couple Play, and 3 for Double Play.
Modern BMS simulators do not depend on #PLAYER anymore, but define play style by the extension of the file itself and the directive lines used in the main data field.

Expansion of BMS format[edit]
As the original .bms format became outdated by the transfer of the KONAMIBeatmania series to the Beatmania IIDX series, other formats that adopted changes in the Beatmania series were developed.
Famous expansions include Be-Music Extend format (.bme) that allowed 7 lines and 1 scratch to be played, and the Be-Music Long note format (.bml) that allowed usage of long notes that required players to hold the key until the end of the note. A .pms extension also exists based on .bms, meant for simulating the game Pop'n Music and utilizing 9 lines.

Separate from the development of the file types, simulators have also been developed by fans.
The original simulator BM98 by Urao Yane supported only 256 music files and picture files to be played, and only supported 5 lanes plus one scratch per playside.[4]
Delight Delight Replicant allowed the .bme format to be played, most significantly allowing the 7 line format similar to the KONAMIBeatmania IIDX series to be played.[5]
nazoBMplay allowed the number of sound and picture/movie files to increase by making the format 36 base instead of 16 base and with a patch allowed to play .ogg file type sounds.[6]
Currently the most widely used BMS player is Lunatic Rave 2 by lavalse that has its own online ranking website.
Other simulators after Lunatic Rave 2 with higher performances and wider freedoms of expansion exist but no other simulator was able to replace the position of Lunatic Rave 2 as the most used simulator, mostly due to compatibility to older formats and lack of an online ranking system.

bmson[edit]
bmson is a format based on JSON initially developed by wosderge. The original purpose of the format was to make an alternative to BMS that was easy to implement and use by developers, artists and chart creators alike. bmson has no limit on the amount of keysounds one can have in chart, unlike BMS which has a hard limit of 1296 keysounds.
After the format was proposed, the version 0.26 format was implemented to a couple of BMS players, such as Bemuse and raindrop.[7][8] After the initial implementation, the developers of these games as well as a few others worked together to create the bmson version 1.0 technical specification.[9]

What is a BMS file?
Encrypted file generated in the BIOWRAP Multi-Layer Security (BMS) format; can incorporate both biometric and digital authentication mechanisms; may contain any type of digital data such as a text document or a large business data archive; used for safely sending digital files using email attachments, discs, flash drives, and other mediums.

BMS files can be opened with the free BIOWRAP Reader desktop application. They can also be viewed through the BIOWRAP online website application, which runs in a Web browser. Additionally, they can be accessed using the BIOWRAP Reader Web Service, which allows BMS documents to be integrated into existing document process flow platforms.
BMS files are generated using Nation Technologies' BIOWRAP software (Professional, Enterprise, and Industry editions). This software and the BIOWRAP Web interface enable users to specify retention rights and fine grained access control constraints, which limit file access based on specific criteria.
The BIOWRAP System utilizes identity-based encryption to certify the identity and credentials (company, group, industry, etc.) of an individual creating encrypted files. Encrypted files are stamped with the level of authentication used to perform the encryption. Supported identification mechanisms include biometrics, x509 PKI certificates, and BIOWRAP usernames and passwords.
NOTE: BIOWRAP Reader has been discontinued.
