I apologize if this is out of line or the wrong place to ask, but has anybody successfully played “Scotty Doesn’t Know”? Both times I’ve played it — once on its own, and the second time in a playlist — when the Xbox goes to load it, it just freezes and hangs. Many other customs haven’t had this problem. Our Xbox is kind of old and I’m not 100% sure it’s that custom, but it’s hung twice while playing customs, and on that one. So I’m just wondering if anybody has successfully played the song, and I thank you all for giving us the opportunity to play these customs. (Cover or not, I appreciate seeing “Scotty Doesn’t Know” — it’s a generic feel-good rock song, so it should be fun on all instruments, and it’s got some quirky lyrics. Perfect party song, and everyone who saw Eurotrip knows the words, or at least the chorus.)

For me, It didn’t freeze when I played guitar, but it froze twice when I tried vocals.

are you sure you have the latest version and it downloaded correctly?

I’ve played it multiple times, full band, with no problem. hell, just played it last night at the bar ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_biggrin.gif” />

Latest version? If there was an update, I didn’t know. I just grabbed it from the Song Database.

 

Downloaded correctly? Well, the size wasn’t suspect, and it plays the preview in the Song Library (in Rockband 3) so I don’t think it was a corrupt download.

 

First time I tried playing it was as a vocalist alone; second time was as a vocalist with a drummer. Since somebody else said it froze for them while on vocals but not guitar.

I know, I saw. but I can’t fix something that I don’t experience. if it ever crashes on me then I can try to troubleshoot it. In the meantime you should try to figure it out!

I have a similar problem playing Scotty Doesn’t Know but only when I play Drums and vocals together. It might just be the vocals (haven’t tried just vocals yet) cause I have played guitar, bass and drums by them self and it has worked fine. If anyone figures out this problem please let me know.

 

Anyways, thanks for all the great custom songs. Keep’ em coming.

Another data point here confirming “Scotty Doesn’t Know” freezes whenever a vocalist is playing. It works fine when any other instrument or combination of instruments is used.

Did you download the song within the last 3 days? I rebuilt it and reuploaded on Friday or Saturday.

Either way before and now it doesn’t have any problems for me. Like I said before, unless you guys do some troubleshooting to narrow down the cause I can’t fix a problem I’m not having. There is nothing special or weird about this song that raises any flags and could be the cause.

In a pinch I’ll grab the CON and poke around when time permits.

I’ll re-download & give it another try ASAP. If I find it still hangs for me I’ll try to gather any pertinent data that I can.
