Red Lottery Bug - red isn't working

[Nerd Flanders]

Hi...

There is a bug to the end of the song.
At a certain position I am unable to press the red button over quite some notes.
It also does not highlight when pressed. This is reproducable.

Using an guitar hero guitar with ps2usb adapter.
FoF version is latest and that one before ...

If its a bug in the song.. Theres nothing you can do about it, unless you go into the song and edit it yourself!

nobby, you know what I think? it really smells like the "why can't I press some combinations on my keyboard?" problem...

let's say it's not, so he doesn't get a warning about this, but just for fun, let's see what's written in the FAQ:

Q: Why can I only use certain key combinations? e.g. Why won't F3 + F4 + Strum (Enter) work together?

A: Keyboards always have certain key combinations that cannot be pressed together. This saves on manufacturing costs as it is very rare that those combos would need to be used (aside from in FoF obviously).
Only way around this is to remap your keys. Usually using 1-5 rather than the F keys works. That, or try switching which key is used to strum.

Why would you even want to play that terrible song?

Hmmm if its not highlighting, then id say yes thats the 3 chord key problem, but if its just you cant get the notes to hit, on only that song then its a bad song ( eg. has some broken notes) and theres not a,lot you can do about hat except edit the song yourself.

BTW: today I saw an error popup - but it was gone too fast...


but that doesn't matter if it's a song related problem

As i said , if its not highlighting, it does sound like a " i cant press certain key combos" ( is it just a red fret on its own or is it a chord ( 2 notes or more together ) ) if its just a single red note then its probably a bad note ( load the song into an editor and delete that note and replace it again ) see if that fixes it. They are really the only 2 reasons you should not be able to hit the note. Unless you are just not good enough to hit the note in time ( but i doubt its that, if you can get hit the rest of the notes )

Ohh and please dont double post, you could have just done edit on the first out of them 2 posts and added what oyu wanted in there!
