Hi! I’m trying to polish up a song (Tool – Rosetta Stoned to be exact) by doing some Guitar animations and a recurrent doubt became fundamental:

Sometimes the guitar player does some pull-offs to an open note that isn´t charted green and judging from this doc it seems a bit tricky:

• [map HandMap_DropD] = open hand (no fingers down) for all green gems, all other gems are chords
• [map HandMap_DropD2] = open hand (no fingers down) for all green gems

I thought it was a limitation until I saw this: https://youtu.be/OrmiqI5Oxto?t=21

Clearly red notes are being pull-offed to open so…

Is this an official DLC special feature or is there a specific authoring map I’m missing?

I opened up the midi for B.Y.O.B in Reaper and I can confirm they used [map HandMap_DropD2].

 

So I tried making two test charts, one with a string of greens and another a string of reds

 

 

Seeing both in game, the character does indeed only open hand green and fret the red.

 

So what I tried doing was taking the milo animation file from the green fret CON and overriding the CON with the red frets. Unfortunately even after that the character was not open handing the string of reds. So I can only assume HMX did something special on their end that we can’t control.

Huh weird, what a shame, but thanks! Here’s hope that someday we’ll figure this out.
