  • in reply to: Projector & Rock Band Calibration #410492

    I’m getting auto numbers in the 50s, and even though I’m an expert guitarist who has played there for 5 years, I’m not happy with the manual calibration either. I bought this warehouse recently and made a screen out of canvass & a 2×4 (what do they call a 2×4 in France?), and I can make it pitch dark. It’s a little echoey. Calibration has been a nightmare for the 2 sessions we’ve tried this.

    Am I a pecimist? Thanks. Glad to hear

    in reply to: Do scores from regular DLC upload when you log back in? #405059

    Don’t mix. That path only leads to heartache, corruption, and despair.

     

    Use one stick for customs play, with its own save game and cache, and a different stick for online play, with its own save game and cache.

     

    Also, BACK UP your save game.

     

    Crap. I was hoping to get some online credit for playing the lamer disk songs during this little marathon. I guess I could switch sticks & sandwich the evaporated songs into a custom setlist in between what’s left of ESL 1 & 2

    Sorry. I’m out of town & can’t check this myself, but I had a question… If I’m playing customs with my TU4 stick & I mix in a disk song or regular DLC, will the scores for that song hit the Leaderboards when I log back in with TU5?

     

    If you’re on a separate cache file and save game diet, nope.

     

    Is there a way to accomplish that? I was thinking about running all 3 Endless Setlists consecutively for a Rock Band Bash, & I need the Customs for the songs like Enter Sandman & Paranoid, but I’d like to have all that work added to my online scores.

    Mr. Met, would you care to give us a little gaming Bio on yourself so that we can get a feel for what additional game songs we might get the pleasure of one day seeing? Something like “I am X years old, I started playing when I was Y on System A. I played a lot of System B, and a little of System C. I like these genres and hate these genres, etc.

    in reply to: Custom Microphone Question #404500
    I think you’re mistaking this place for Doc’s Rock Band Mods.

     

    Not really. I’m just not remembering if this was a Rock Band 3 issue or a TU5 issue. The commercialization of Rock Band forced the developers to start worrying about the bottom line over the consumer experience. The same mentality that led to a TU5 which bans custom tracks also banned my custom mic, forcing me to use their stock mic (or GH’s). I just don’t remember if it was a disk block or a TU5 block, & since so many people here are back on TU4, I thought someone might be able to answer my question before I sent for my hardware.

     

    I don’t need a modded mic. You can buy 5 different USB mics at Guitar Center, plug them straight in to the XBox, and start playing Rock Band 1 or 2 with no problems, & you’ll score 10-20% better if you are a tenor or lower, but on RB3, no Overdrive even if you scream bloody murder.

     

    So while I’m here, I figure, if TU5 is not the issue, maybe ask someone to program me some help…

    in reply to: Rock Band extras that never were #404400

    I’d like to save multiple calibrations. I play in 3 places. I have my regular 65 inch flat screen in my den with my receiver and all, but that is only good when my kids are awake or out of town. I have a backup bedroom with a set up for the times the above conditions aren’t met. And then I have a projector & a mobile receiver & full fog kit & all that for when I take this stuff & have a party.

     

    All 3 setups have drastically different calibrations. I know it doesn’t take long to auto calibrate, but it would be nice to set up the 3 different calibrations, name them, and then pick from that list.

    in reply to: Hack the story??? #400383
    What you’re asking for might be possible but only for those on JTAG/RGH consoles. Even then it’d be an extremely difficult and complex thing to do because you have to poke around with the game resources.

     

    I’m thinking there have to be people that are into this custom stuff who have that kind of game creation talent but don’t have song-making talent. There is room for more here. Unfortunately, i have neither talent. I am just an idea man and a consumer.

    in reply to: Early Rock #400338

    I thought this was going to be about Elvis, Chuck Berry, & Buddy Holly. The rub used to always be the fact that we couldn’t get separated masters, but since we aren’t really worrying about that any more, we could get some serious early rock

    Did you ever play the Dynasty Warriors video game series? These songs would be unbelieveably fun to play. They are instrumentals. Plenty of Guitars, Drums, & Keys. Here are a few. Give them a look. They are short, you might do a loop. If you’d like, I’ll send you the disc, so you can rip the songs from it for better sound quality.

    Shocked not to see Pat Travers on this list. I have a spreadsheet I’ve had since RB1 with the top 300 songs I felt would be perfect for Rock Band for cool factor and full band fun (many of which have been released), but number 12 on my list that’s still not available is “Boom Boom, Out Go the Lights! (Live)”. Also, his treatment of “Bang Bang, My Baby Shot Me Down” would play great too. Those need to be at the top of your Canadian project list.

    in reply to: The Future of Rhythm Games #399800

    To build on what WheelofKa was saying, I think an RPG style setup might have saved Rock Band. I’d have pitched Dave Grol on a side project that incorporated all the instruments in a deep RPG game with tons of challenges and cities & buying new instruments and the right to use your own DLC in the quest and all this stuff.

     

    But the reason I bring this up here, is that if you are pitching a group, there are likely to be some people in it that don’t give a flip about Rythm games, and if you diversify with a good quest in your project, you might be able to not only reel the detractors in, but also put them to work on something they will be passionalte about, and hence, they’d be able to significantly contribute to your final product.
