There is such a thing as a telephone you know! Just ring your local radio shack and ask if they have any in stock!
That way you dont have to do anything but press a few buttons and sit your butt down on the sofa for 2 mins.
The interwebs are good but there are other ways of doing things in life too

Hey guys!

I am from Germany and unfortunately they don't sell GH controllers without the game here, at least I didn't find out anything. I don't have a PS2 so I only need the controller, so if anyone has a clue if there is a way to get one without buying the game, just tell me.

Maybe I could buy the game, get the controller und sell the game at eBay, but I bet nobody will want to buy it without a controller ^^

Heh, I have exactley the same problem.
Isn't it possible to buy the xbox version and plug that one directley into your USBport?

[randomfofguy]

you can buy a 360 guitar at gamestop and plug it into your computer without any adapter. the 360 guitar is regular USB and it works perfectly

Just a note for anyone thinking about it, the Rock Band USB Guitar works PERFECTLY with FoF. Plug and Play and it installs drivers itself on Windows XP

[poopsticker]

how many imputs does the redoctane adapter have?

[stevrok]

My 1st fret button does not work when I strum. Every other button does. If anyone can help pls do. Thanks

[stevrok]

I had a bit of trouble getting my green fret button to work as well. I found that windows XP would pick up the green fret + strum as me pressing left or right for some reason.

In order to fix it I downloaded XPadder and configured it so left or right equaled the button I assigned to the green fret plus the button I assigned to the strum. So far it seems to be working correctly. Maybe this would apply to you as well?


[edit]
I hope I did this right but this is my configuration file for anyone who wants to try it
