Vocals Question... I Know

[guitarfreak93]

well I know everyone has been asking questions and i still can't get mine answered... anywhere. I have the RB1 mic and i update the fofix svn everyday at noon so I'm up to date most of the time. I've read in places that you need the pyvocal or something to make it work and I can't find it anywhere. I also read that if you have a mic the records with windows it will work but I went to controller and there's no option to set up a mic(Also read that somewhere). Plz find it in the kindness of your heart to not to yell at me and help cause I can't the answer to these questions on the forum... I looked, trust me.

Answer: **** READ BEFORE POSTING MICROPHONE QUESTIONS!! ***
Assuming you followed those directions and saw the notice about PyAudio (which I don't believe you did because you didn't have the correct name, and a simple search for PyAudio would have helped you):
If you can't find a module, did you by chance look at the Google Code site where it lists required modules (with links!!) that is linked all over this forum - Including in the main forum rules?

We do try to be polite and helpful, but the same question a hundred times when the information is not at all hidden is just a bit frustrating.

ty but that only solved one of my problems... I have pyaudio installed now but the mic thing still doesn't show up. Anyone know why possibly?

[Blazemann]

Yes.

Are you using a theme that supports vocals?

Make sure that a /vocals folder exists under the theme folder, and that the vocal graphics are contained in it. Also, it will only work in single player or RB Co-Op.

I've asked jstump91 to add this info to the sticky.

yea i tried rb2 mod and megalght which they both had the folders and i still can't even set up the mic....

I didn't see this asked yet but. Did you remember to go into controllers and make one of the 4 controller's a Microphone? I think you can pick the Mic source in there. I'd have to double check though. Also if you're on Vista, another thing I had to do was find the audio controls (On mine it's Realtek HD Audio Manager) go into advanced device settings and have it set to "Separate all input devices." Then it should show up in the controller menu.

[guitarfreak93]

how do you make one of the controllers a mic, is there an option somewhere? if so where?

[death_au]

In the controllers menu you need to make a new controller, and change the type at the top from Guitar to Microphone

[guitarfreak93]

how do i make a new controller... I'm gonna need to post screen shots cause i can't see what your talking about

---- EDIT ----



See I don't know where to do it... do I need to enable it in the ini or something?

[akedrou]

...You don't have the alpha version. You might think you do, but you don't. The alpha has completely restructured controls. Make sure your SVN is updated to the latest revision (1723 at the time of this writing) and that you are running from source (preferred) or a rebuilt exe.

• Vocal support came about after 3.120 beta 1 was released, so as of this writing it's only available if you are running from svn.

You arent using FOFix 3.120

[guitarfreak93]

I finally figured out how to get the 3.120 beta 1 and installer went perfect but when I tried to open it i got:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "FretsOnFire.py", line 249, in <module>
File "FretsOnFire.py", line 112, in main
File "GameEngine.pyo", line 485, in __init__
File "Video.pyo", line 52, in setMode
pygame.error: No available video device

Sryy that I keep on asking more questions...

Beta 1 DOESNT have vocal support & 4players

[guitarfreak93]
