only the GH2 one works because it has a USB plug

plug it in and install the xbox 360 controler driver then turn on joy 2 key (dont do anything on it) then turn on frets on fire, go to settings, and change the keys to the buttons on the remote :)

I used the keyboard for a few weeks, but I bought an X-plorer and am loving it. I use Linux and it took me awhile to figure out what was going wrong when I tried to load the xpad module to use it in FOF, but I finally figured it out (missing trailing / in Makefile).

Occasionally I reboot to play GH3 in Windows, but FOF is usually good enough for me. It's got amazing potential and I hope it evolves through the years to live up to that potential.

I use the keyboard otherside, and I use only 3 fingers for hitting the frets, and one pick if that matters....

Your siggy is wrong, it has to be done like this.

Code: Select all

[URL= *url/link*]*Text*[/URL]
Then it'll appear as a link with the text you put in *Text*

Anyhow, I play with the keyboard flat 90% of the time, and the other 10%, with it like a guitar. Though I only use it like a guitar on fast songs like Fury of the Storm, or when I wanna :D

I play it flat...but only because i'm using a Zboard. Which has an extra row of buttons at the top, a built in palm rest and non moveable stands.

Now that I've gotten an actual Guitar hero game and gotten good with the guitar, I've realized what a piece of digestive results using the keyboard is. I can definetly play a lot better with the guitar now that I'm used to it, and playing with the keyboard feels horrible now.

I gotta get a bluetooth dongle

I hold the keyboard like the mascot does, and I stand up so I can flail around like an idiot.
