I decided to release this package as it is what I have for my own game, and I wanted to give it to others. As forementioned, this is a entire install of Frets On Fire, so do not place all of this stuff inside your data folder. Place it wherever the heck you want.

However, what I did was compile the mods, make them all completely compatible (except for the C-Mod and CrowdMod, though they both work to most people's liking), and I made a few mods myself. But I did not make every single mod in this package, therefore many, many thanks goes to the following hard-working people:

"Capo" for his C-Mod

Our friends over at FOF.Spain for all the GH1 songs

"anarko919" for all the GH2 songs

"dgrams2000" for his GH Background Mods

"amplitude" and "Master Yogurt" and the rest of their team for there CrowdMod

"Rogue_F" for his RF-Mod

"Nightmare JG" for his CD Mod

"buckethead loves kfc" for his GH Difficulties mod

"Keith" for his non caps-lock GH Difficulties remake

"Seafoo" for his Noob Edition mod

"GUITAR HERO II" for his GH sounds mod

"Talos" for his Talos Custom Mod

"element3260" for his Guitar Perspecive Mod and remake of Fozz's ESP-F400FM neck

"Fozz(icus)" for his New Notes, Keys, and Folder Labels Mod, as well as his Guitar Perspective Mod that he didn't finish

"Pudding" for his contribution to the RF-Mod for multiplayer split screen

and Unreal Voodoo Inc. for making Frets On Fire.


Things made by me:

New Menu Music (Cochise by Audioslave (guitar only))

Orange 5th Fret Mod

White HOPO Notes Mod

Inapropriate Titles Removed Mod

Organization of GH1 and GH2 songs

Rhythm.ogg files taken out of songs

Compilation of all mods

Incompatibility/duplicate files removed from mods (that way they all work)

New sounds for instances not covered by the GH Sounds mod (i.e. perfect1.ogg, out.ogg, etc.)

New Color Schemes (nothing serious, just black main menu and white text)


This mod is made to be a USEFUL Guitar Hero mod for Frets On Fire. Yes, there are many cosmetic changes to the game, but they only add to the Guitar Hero experience the other mods bring.

I made this mod so that people can enjoy playing Frets On Fire easily. There is absolutely no amount of work you have to do, besides install it (or get extra necks, I'm not that much of a custom-neck person, unless it's original). Please give me an abundance of feedback, because I want to know what you think about my mod.


How to install this mod:

BE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT YOU FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

The same instructions are located in the README, which is in each of the five files you have to download. This way you absolutely cannot mess it up (unless you're illiterate, lol).

1. Take all five .zip files and extract them as specified in the following instructions.

2. Take the "Frets On Fire" folder and put it anywhere you want.

3. Place the "data" folder inside the "Frets On Fire" folder.

4. Create a folder inside the "data" folder called "songs".

5. Place the "Guitar Hero I" and "Guitar Hero II" folder inside the "songs" Folder.

6. Place the "mods" folder inside the "data" Folder.

7. Go into My Computer.

8. Click and apply "Show Hidden Files and Folders" by clicking "Tools", then "Folder Options", then "View" and finding that option on the list.

8. Move the "fretsonfire.ini" (located in "Frets On Fire") to "C:/Documents And Settings/USER/Application Data/fretsonfire" and replace the file that's there (if there is one).

9. Go to your newly unzipped folder, right-click the Frets On Fire application, hold your mouse over "Send To", then click "Desktop (Create Shortcut)".

10. If you have a previous install of Frets On Fire, right-click the newly created desktop icon, and select "Properties".

11. Once in "Properties", click "Change Icon".

12. Click "Browse", then find the folder that contains your previous install of Frets On Fire.

13. Click on the icon there, then click "OK", then click "Apply", then click "OK" again.

14. Then double-click on the icon on your desktop for Frets On Fire.

15. ENJOY!!!


Things to watch for:

Player 1's controls are specifically set up for using a Guitar Hero guitar controller.

There are no CD Labels AT ALL. If you want them, you'll have to download them yourself.

There is only one neck, and it's element3260's remake of Fozz's ESP-F400FM neck.

The crowd sounds only play when you choose one of the "Concert" backgrounds, giving the feel that you're in a concert.


DOWNLOADS:

There are five (5) files to download. Be sure to follow the installation instructions EXACTLY.


File 1

File 2

File 3

File 4

File 5

ENJOY!!!!!!

BIG THX

[Duckmeister]

Thank you signap.

Lol, what a boost for morale to have someone say you're mod is beepin' awesome!

[lnkk]

wow, u did a f***ing awesome job, obviously we need to thanks everyone that make the "pieces" of the mod, but u need a especial thanks for the hard work "setting the pieces". THANK U.

Iam f***ing lazy now, and my english probably sucked, i think i need some rest :S

[tazguy79]

so basically its what i released in the starter pack, only more complicated...o well, i know how long this takes 2 put one of these together, and good job

[Ivix]

This is brilliant. Everyone involved in making this game as good as it can be gets a big thumbs up from me!

[dgrams2000]

Nice.

[Duckmeister]

Wow thanks a lot guys. Now I know about the starter pack and all that, but this has everything GH related on this entire forum, and they are ALL up to date. No old version of mods here. This has more GH related stuff than the starter pack does.

No offense to tazguy, because now I know how torturous it is to put something like this together.

Thanks again for the great feedback, I really apreciate it.

[jake2k3]

Wow, you actually set the crowd sounds to the backgrounds. I never thought about that. Brilliant.

Nice bundle pack.

Anyways, thanks Jake for the good feedback.


Also people, make sure you download ALL of the files. Using just one is not going to work that well, lol.

Looks great, although I recommend releasing a songless version for those who already have all the songs.

[smedricksman24]

What exactly is the "Inappropriate Titles Removed" mod. I'm asking because I can't think of any songs which have cursing in the titles, and because inappropriate is a very subjective word.

[HeruLuingul]

The most inappropriate thing I can think of is "Cherry Pie." :p

Great work with this, now we have somewhere to direct everyone who **** about FOF not being enough like GH. Seriously, must have been time-consuming though.

[raptor jesus]

What exactly is the "Inappropriate Titles Removed" mod.

I was sort of wondering the same thing. Off to search!

*raises fist into the air and flies away*

[edit]Hmm... Search didn't find much for me

[Duckmeister]

The Inappropriate Titles Removed mod basically takes any outright profane names in songs and changes them to something else.

For example: The band that plays Who Was in My Room Last Night was changed to "The Surfers". Lame, I know, but I really don't want to look at stuff like that when I'm playing.

However, there were some things I did not change, because the alternative was worse. For example: The song by Avenged Sevenfold? The alternative would basically be saying the real names.
