I can’t launch the game, even as admin. i’m on windows 10

How do you get a controller to work? it keeps popping up as a mic and theres no option to change it

It crashes every time it says “click any button to rock”. I downloaded GH3 from here and that works just fine, so I’m lost…

Same here : /

Same for me

1. Press Win+R( The run program will show up) 2. Type Regedit 3. In the list click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE 4. In the drop down menu click SOFTWARE folder 5. Within software click WOW6432Node folder 6. Click Aspyr, then click Guitar hero world tour folder 7. Within that folder you have to change the Path registry. So double click Path(It will show up on your right along with (default) and Language. 8. Change it to the location on your local disk drive that the game is installed to. Ex:C:\Program Files (x86)\Aspyr\Guitar Hero World Tour. (You can use mine as an example and drive whats neccessary if yours is a bit different.

Does not run on Windows 11, even after regedit path edit. 2 errors: Code execution cannot proceed because d3dx9_39.dll was not found Code execution cannot proceed because XINPUT1.dll was not found

Is this game compatible with the definitive edition?

I cant even download the torrent? when i click it nothing happens?

You can try downloading x360ce and converting the guitar inputs into an xbox 360 controller inputs. Or you simply need to downloading the guitar driver, like with steering whells

hi, ty for you work! i installed the game and solved the problem with the path but the game doesn’t recognize my guitar and still asking for it. how can i fix this?

It looks like competing “tap the buttons as colored gems move across the screen in time with music” games Rock Band and Guitar Hero have started the kind of annual rivalry usually reserved for sports fans. So, despite the fact that the series is still called Guitar Hero, this year’s big innovation is the addition of drummers and singers (and the accompanying $180 bundle pack). It’s tempting to deride the series for copying Rock Band 2, but it’s really just a natural evolution of this genre. Besides, Guitar Hero: World Tour actually trumps RB2 in a few key areas.

guitar hero world tour license key pc

The most important difference is obvious after only one song: though you can use your Rock Band 2 gear with no problems, Guitar Hero World Tour has better instruments. The drum kit’s cymbals feel better and the pads sound deeper and feel more substantial. Rock Band 2’s drums have a better kick pedal, but even with its added outboard cymbals, that’s the only advantage it can claim over these beauties.

The guitar is a closer call – it lacks the visual beauty and “pickup selector” sound effects switch of Rock Band 2’s guitar. Plus, the “string” flipper is oddly, at times infuriatingly squeaky. However, the beefier star power button finally has the perfect size and location: at the bridge, where you’re unlikely to hit it by accident but where you can easily punch with your hand without interrupting your stroke. And the addition of a flat, touch-sensitive pad higher up the neck, which enables new in-game moves like faster tapping and slide guitar, seals the deal.

Once you start playing, you’ll find a bare-bones solo career mode. You’re basically a gigger-for-hire answering ads on a bulletin board, which leads to a vast list of celebrity cameos from Sting and Ozzy to Jimi Hendrix and Hayley from Paramore. We appreciated the wide range of difficulty options, though.

Multiplayer modes are pretty robust, with full support for four musicians not only offline, but online – even in full, four-on-four, head-to-head band battles, which Rock Band 2 doesn’t even do.

What Guitar Hero Controllers Work on PC: Compatibility and Setup Guide

Venturing into the realm of rhythm games often leads to the nostalgic classic, Guitar Hero. While traditionally played on consoles, many enthusiasts look to breathe new life into this iconic game by playing it on a modern PC. Not all Guitar Hero controllers were created equal, however, and their compatibility with a PC can vary. It is crucial to know which controllers will work seamlessly with your PC setup and which ones may require additional steps or hardware to function properly.

What Guitar Hero Controllers Work on PC: Compatibility and Setup Guide

To connect a Guitar Hero controller to a PC, you need to ensure that it has either a USB port for wired connections or wireless connectivity capabilities. Fortunately, many Guitar Hero guitars, such as those from RedOctane and the X-Plorer model, are designed to connect easily to a PC. Depending on what you own or decide to purchase, the process of setting up varies but generally involves plug-and-play mechanisms or the interaction with specific drivers and software.

Configuring the controller in your PC’s settings can be straightforward or might necessitate some manual tweaking. This usually involves mapping the controller’s buttons to correspond with in-game commands. Once configured, your Guitar Hero controller can offer a comparable, if not richer, gaming experience on your PC compared to traditional consoles, especially with the plethora of customization options available through emulators and software designed for rhythm gaming.

Key Takeaways

  • Guitar Hero controllers for PC use require USB or wireless connectivity.
  • RedOctane and X-Plorer models are known for their compatibility with PCs.
  • Proper configuration is necessary for optimal gameplay experience on PC.

Compatibility of Guitar Hero Controllers with PC

To effectively use your Guitar Hero controllers on a PC, it’s important to understand both the essential requirements of your computer and the general compatibility of different controllers. You’ll need to ensure you have the right connections and possibly some additional software or drivers.

Essential PC Requirements

Your PC must have a USB port to connect Guitar Hero controllers, whether directly through a Guitar Hero model with USB connectivity or via an adapter. For wireless controllers , a wireless USB dongle specific to the controller’s console type is necessary. If you’re using a PS2 controller , you’ll need a PS2 to USB adapter .

For smooth performance, ensure your Windows PC is running an operating system that supports the required drivers or software . Some controllers may need third-party applications like Xpadder to be recognized as an Xbox 360 controller, which is commonly supported by PC games.

General Compatibility Guide

  • USB-based Guitar Hero controllers : Directly connect to the PC and may require specific drivers .
  • Xbox 360 Guitar Hero controllers : Typically have native PC support and should work once connected.
  • Wii Guitar Hero controllers : Can be used with a Bluetooth connection if they are wireless or a Raphnet adapter for wired controllers.
  • PS3 Guitar Hero controllers : Require a USB dongle that’s made for the respective controller.
  • PS2 Guitar Hero controllers : Need a PS2 to USB adapter or converter , and you might have to install drivers or remapping software.

For any Guitar Hero controller to interface with PC, compatibility with the game itself is also crucial. Some Guitar Hero games available on PC may not support every controller type, so check the game’s compatibility list. When using adapters or converters, ensure that they are correctly installed and recognized by your Windows PC before attempting to play.

Specific Guitar Hero Controllers and PCs

Finding the right Guitar Hero controller that works with your PC can enhance your gaming experience. Below you’ll find specific information for connecting PlayStation, Xbox, and Wii Guitar Hero controllers to your PC.

PlayStation to PC

To connect PlayStation Guitar Hero controllers to your PC, you often need a USB adapter or a Bluetooth connection if it’s a wireless model. Most PlayStation 3 controllers, including the RedOctane and Kramer Striker , and some PlayStation 2 variants, can be used on your PC. Popular choices include:

  • RedOctane’s Wireless controllers (with a USB receiver)
  • PlayStation 2 wired controllers via a USB adapter

Games like Frets on Fire and Clone Hero are commonly used when playing guitar games on PC.

Xbox controllers usually have an advantage because many come with USB connectivity, making them plug-and-play devices for PCs. The X-Plorer controller from Guitar Hero II on the Xbox 360 is a great wired option that’s directly compatible with your PC. Alternatively, wireless Xbox 360 controllers like the Guitar Hero Live guitar can connect via a wireless gaming receiver . The following controllers are known to work well:

  • Xbox 360’s X-Plorer (wired connection)
  • Xbox 360’s wireless controllers (with wireless receiver)

These controllers work seamlessly with PC games like Clone Hero and are favored for their ease of use.

For Wii Guitar Hero controllers, you’ll typically use a Bluetooth connection to pair the controller with your PC, given that the Wii remote (Wiimote) communicates via Bluetooth. You may need additional software to recognize the controller’s inputs. Here’s what you’ll likely use:

  • Wii Remote connected via Bluetooth
  • Guitar controllers like the Guitar Hero Live guitar connected with the Wii remote

Keep in mind, for playing titles like Guitar Hero III on a Mac or PC, using the Wii remote with Clone Hero is a common practice among gamers. Additionally, DOYO and Activision made Wii guitar controllers that can be adapted for PC use.

Wireless Guitar for Wii Guitar Hero and Rock Band Games Color Black

  • Gametime Buddies Brand Name wireless guitar for Guitar Hero and Rock Band games.
  • Size: 30 inches long with neck, 9.5 inch width at the guitar body.
  • Wii remote controller slot on the front of guitar, easy to connect and hold the Wii Remote.
  • Compatible with All Guitar Hero Games and Rock Band 2 or 3.
  • Not compatible with the Rock Band games that requires microphone to play, such as Rock Band 1 and more.

Using and Configuring Controllers on PC

To make the most of your Guitar Hero controllers on PC, you’ll need to correctly install them, use the right software, and know how to troubleshoot common problems.

Installation and Settings

Before rocking out on your PC, ensure your Guitar Hero controller—whether it’s a wireless or wired model—is properly installed. For wired controllers , it’s often as simple as plugging them into a USB port on your PC. However, some models, like the PS2 controller , may require a PS2 to USB adapter . For wireless controllers , you’ll need to connect the corresponding USB receiver and often use the sync button on the controller to establish a connection.

Once plugged in, navigate to your system’s Settings to ensure everything is functioning. Check the properties of your controller in the device manager to confirm that all the buttons—or frets —and the strum bar are recognized. Ensure that no compatibility issues are present for a smooth experience.

Third-Party Software and Games

After installation, you might need third-party software to assign the controllers’ inputs to keystrokes or game controls—this is especially true for games that don’t natively support Guitar Hero controllers like Clone Hero or Rock Band . Programs such as Xpadder or JoyToKey allow you to map the fret buttons , strum bar , and dpad to your liking and save different profiles for various games. Specifically for Guitar Hero titles like Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock or Guitar Hero: Aerosmith , ensure the game settings are configured correctly to recognize your controller.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Occasionally, you may encounter issues where the PC doesn’t recognize your controller or the controls aren’t responding correctly. Here are a couple of common issues and their solutions:

  • Driver Problems : If using a wireless controller , sometimes Windows doesn’t install the correct drivers automatically. You can go to Device Manager and manually update them.
  • Port Issues : Controllers may not be recognized if plugged into USB 3.0 ports. Try connecting to a USB 2.0 port if you encounter this problem.

Remember to check the controller’s compatibility with your PC’s operating system and that any third-party peripherals , like a Fender Stratocaster from Rock Band, have the necessary hardware or software support.

Enhancing Your Guitar Hero Experience on PC

Playing Guitar Hero on PC can be a highly rewarding experience with the right equipment and custom content. Using compatible controllers and personalizing your game with mods can significantly enhance your gameplay.

Additional Peripherals

For an authentic Guitar Hero experience on PC, having the ideal peripherals is crucial. Xbox 360 guitars are known for their compatibility and can be connected to your PC with a wireless receiver or USB cable. X-Plorer Wired Guitar is a great choice if you’re after a plug-and-play experience with a classic electric guitar feel.

Ensure that your controller’s battery is always charged for consistent performance, especially if you’re using a wireless controller. In case you want a full band setup, you can also consider adding drums and other peripherals that work with games like Clone Hero and Rock Band track packs .

Custom Songs and Modifications

To freshen up your song library, incorporating custom songs is a fantastic way to personalize your Guitar Hero experience on PC. Software such as Clone Hero , Performous , and Phase Shift allows you to add songs and customize gameplay. These platforms are often community-driven, offering a vast array of additional songs and modifications.

  • Clone Hero : Highly popular for its custom song support.
  • Rock Band Track Packs : Can be imported to expand your song library.

Incorporating these custom songs is usually straightforward — download the tracks and follow the instructions provided by the software to include them in your game. Doing this will breathe new life into your playing sessions, providing you with virtually endless content to enjoy.
