If this had HO/PO, I would love it to death as a way to play the songs i wanted (One by Metallica is an all time favorite). But the lack of it makes it..... meh.

SethSquall · 03-16-2007, 05:48 PM

Im currently doing a few at the mo. Songs with insanious guitar.

falcondude · 03-16-2007, 05:51 PM

I'm working on downloading the song packs via BitTorrent. These are taking forever! >=(

SethSquall · 03-16-2007, 05:52 PM

Be prepared for suck.

falcondude · 03-16-2007, 05:57 PM

Whatever. They're files, right? RIGHT?

SethSquall · 03-16-2007, 06:31 PM

Yea but 98% are soooooo bad. I could make random crap and it could be a "file", that's not the point.

falcondude · 03-16-2007, 06:34 PM

True. I guess I'll play the other 2% then!

SethSquall · 03-17-2007, 09:02 AM

Right on. Some files are so boring to make.

falcondude · 03-17-2007, 11:54 AM

I got the 2nd pack downloaded. OMG, the best files are worse (as in sync) than the worst ffr songs. :/

SethSquall · 03-17-2007, 03:03 PM

We need someone with Guitar Hero 2 to import the tracks onto the game then send them to us. That would be awesome, although perfectly reasonable if they won't do it.

Mas_Tnega · 03-17-2007, 03:45 PM

It's pretty neat, an account of it being a Guitar Hero emulator, but I don't think it was made with efficiency in mind. Now that I've downloaded my way through this list, it uses over 600MB of page file. It would be fine, if I could only work out what the hell that 600MB is made of. It spends forever and a day loading the 'previews', just because it's actually loading into RAM both audio files and playing them, then it spends roughly as long applying the midi, probably because the preview is discarded and loaded again, or something outright retarded like that. It can also spend quite some time just changing choice of song, just because it's trying to load every preview in between one song and the other (not so much "even the ones it's already previewed" but "especially").
If it's spending all that time loading stuff, what was it loading in the first place? The only things I can see constantly present are images for the levels' tapes (and very few actually have them), the highest score for each difficulty of each level, and what difficulties exist. I'd sooner run out of HDD space than get 600MB of that, unless the images are of obscene quality and resolution.

However, once I'm playing, all is fun and joyous.

SethSquall · 03-17-2007, 04:48 PM

Yea what you said.

Needs more better files.

I might just rent GH2 and import them, although this is probably easier.

SethSquall · 03-20-2007, 07:24 AM

That be awesome.

SethSquall · 03-23-2007, 12:12 PM

Uploading GHII songs.

Half an hour in.

Edit: Ok no way it took almost an hour to do that one song. Screw this someone with a better pc do this. Im not waiting around 63 hours.

**Shashakiro** · 03-23-2007, 01:35 PM

so I made a chart for St Scarhand in SM, using the left five arrows of Doubles

not like anyone can actually play it since I made it in SM, but it was still fun to make rofl

xinpig · 03-30-2007, 09:12 AM

that game is pretty crazy

wickedawesomeful · 03-30-2007, 10:54 AM

My comp is slow as ****, too. I'm getting GH2 in a couple days, so I'll just import and leave it on a couple days.
