Ok, as you all saw at E3, every instrument plays the exact same way as guitar, except vocals. So, with a small edit to Frets on Fire, it could easily become drums. Just a simple mod to press the button without the need to strum and some songs with drum notes instead of guitar notes and we're good to go!

Sorry if this idea has been suggested already!

Goodbye everyone. It's been fun. I spent many many hours here on these boards and playing/contributing to FoF. Today I uninstalled my game and deleted all my files. I just don't have the time or interest anymore. I won't be coming back here anymore. I might show up in the IRC from time to time to chat. I regret nothing.

So long, farewell.

This can be coded without problems.

while playing drums on FoF would be badass, I would rather prefer to play the real thing.

There was another disscussion about drums a while ago, in the " Rockband mod" topic ( in mods section ) and i did a little example song ( really small and crap ) using lead & bass guitar, and drums. Its somewhere in the tune posting section.

I didnt wait for the $80 rock band drum set (or whatever jacked up price it will be). I made my own! :) If you look in the off topic section for drums mod I explained (in detail) what I did.
