File Extension Details
The TJA file format is a plain text-based configuration file used primarily by Taiko no Tatsujin (Drum Master) rhythm game simulators, most notably TaikoJiro and its various derivatives like TJAPlayer3 and OpenTaiko. These files contain the metadata and note data required to play a specific song within the simulator. A typical TJA file includes headers for the song title, subtitle, BPM (beats per minute), wave file path (the actual audio), and offset. The core of the file consists of 'courses' or difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, Oni, Ura), where notes are represented by numeric codes: 0 for a blank space, 1 for a small red note (Don), 2 for a small blue note (Ka), 3 for a large red note, and 4 for a large blue note. It also supports complex commands for scrolling speed changes, barline visibility, and lyric synchronization. Because it is a text format, it is easily editable using any standard text editor, allowing the community to create custom charts for their favorite songs. It serves as the backbone for the Taiko simulator community, enabling the sharing and playing of user-generated content.
