      There’s still a problem with this song. It has 4 chorded notes charted at the start. :brosius:

      No…there is not a problem with it. It is authored that way and the difficulty reflects that. The four note chords are not just there at the start. They are only on the “Expert” difficulty.

        I have no beef with 4 note chords. Doesn’t hurt to spice things up a bit especially on expert difficulty.

        Then your the first author to ever chart four chorded notes. I’m guessing your take it a step further with future songs, maybe G,Y,O notes?

        It feels very alien to me and personally coming from a veteran player who’s been playing RB since 2008, it’s like learning a whole new rhythm game all over again.

        I think when you author you should stick to certain guide lines, regardless if it “spices it up a bit”.

          I have seen 4 chords used before. I have even seen them on hard levels. Shocked me at first but now I find it challenging & fun. If I had to follow strict guidelines it would be the end of my sharing what I make. That’s what is great about C3. We are allowed to experiment in what we create & share.

          I’ve never seen you chart 4 chorded notes before. How comes you don’t chart them then?

          Yes I agree with what your saying, but charting 4 chorded notes or any other weird form of chords is going to put the community off downloading and playing your songs. You want people to play and enjoy your songs right? That’s why you upload them to get feedback.

          I thought seeing G,B,O, G,R,O or G,Y,O chords was bad enough.

            I don’t use 4 note chords because my hands don’t work the same at 52 years old as they did when I was 25. If they did rest assured you would see 4 note chords.

            I make my customs for my use and gladly share with the people here.

            I rarely get any feedback except for the occasional thanks here & there from the same 9 or 10 people

            If people are put off by how Freewaymad or any other author does it that’s their problem. Like us they can learn how its done, use their free time and change what they want to change.

            I really could care less who or how many downloads my customs get

            I like it when I come across a custom where the author isn’t afraid to do something different.

              By what I’m reading here is you, Distressed Ping have a problem with my chart having four note chords. Well… so do some of my other charts and they have the other chords you mentioned too. I have not seen any rule that says I cannot do that. I agree with Spindoctor 100%. I chart to try to capture the feel of how the song was played (as much as I can). It’s one thing when there is a real problem with a chart; it’s another to complain because of how the author did the chart, and that my friend, is crap. I’m sorry to be blunt, but it’s just plain wrong. My customs as any other author’s customs here are for free and meant to be enjoyed, not picked apart because it’s weird or alien or different.

              Yes coming a guy who’s played rhythm games since day one. I personally think 4 chorded notes are stupid and uncomfortable to play, regardless if your trying to capture the feel for how it’s played on a real guitar. Chords should only be a maximum of 3 notes. Period.

               

              I’ve not played any of you’re other songs apart from “Still Counting” & “Here To Stay”, so I wouldn’t know about any other songs with 4 note chords.

               

              Though I have a problem with your charting style, it doesn’t mean diddly squat, you shouldn’t have to change the way you chart for anybody. There’s plenty of other people on here that will probably appreciate your harder approach to expert guitar, but I’m not one of them sorry.

                Well there you have it. You have expressed your opinion, which you are entitled to. You are right, I won’t change my charting style.

                  UPDATED:

                  Added practice session, added venue, and minor fixes on the vocals.

                    Awesome releases. Keep up the great work.

                    Love that first Halford album with Roy Z. Thank you for charting the awesome title track.

                      There is also the problem that you keep forgetting of saying Thanks and appreciating the work of another author before criticising. Remember that thanks go first, criticism goes second.

                        4-note chords are illegal in Rock Band on guitar and bass, as are GYO chords, in example. You can release songs with any kind of authoring choices, there is no check built in the DB to catch overlapping notes, illegal chords, 4 limb hits, etc., so anyone is free to upload songs that don’t meet the Rock Band platform requirements. However, there is an objective problem with those charts, not a subjective one. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif”> If somebody releases a chart with double bass baked in the chart, people will notice that as “illegal” and report it. Same goes for 4-note chords on guitar. And it’s perfectly fine for an author not to change a thing in how they author, but they should expect some probably unwanted feedback from the community. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_wink.gif”>

                          I stand corrected. I am fine with the feedback. It seemed more like complaining to me.
