MFH-Alarian Mod v2.900 - New releases here!

[Rhainor]

Just FYI, I tried installing the v2.931 beta, but after I set the songs folder, it couldn't see any of the sub-folders. The version of Alarian I was using before (v2.8-something) had no problems with this.

I'm trying the v2.930 now. If it doesn't work, I'll edit this post to add that.

did you make sure that you patched the 2.8 with the 2.9 patch then downloaded the 2.30 patch. if so remember .31 is beta

I used the 2.931 full installer.

But, whatever. 2.930 works. I have another beef now:

What the hell happened to the other, non-MFH Rock Band theme? The MFH one seems to have more features, but it doesn't look quite like actual RB, whereas the other RB theme was damn near spot-on.

Just so eveyone knows I'm currently working on a new menu set up that will be different that the other mod that has been released (hero-fof or something)

Thats what im doin. :p

Soon I'll be able to upload files >200 Mb to rapidshare and I'm thinking about adding some more themes to my installer.

My current "to add" list:
1. Classic FoF Theme (i'm looking for the one with original tutorial working)
2. GH: Aerosmith Theme (already found it)
3. GH: Encore - Rt80s Theme

If anyone can provide links to those themes (or any other classy themes) working with MFH-A Mod it will be greatly appreciated.

Not to blow my own horn, but I made an oldschool FoF theme [here's the link].
The tutorial has never really worked in Alarian, as far as I know... There is one way I managed to get it it to work though.
In the song.ini for the tutorial, there is a line that says "tutorial = 1". Remove that and it will appear in the song list. It crashes the game when it tries to load images in the tutorial, though. You can "fix" this by going into the script.txt and either removing the lines that say "pic" instead of "text" in the 3rd column. (Alternatively, you could comment them out by putting a '#' in front of them)

I'm uploading the one I did for ease (I excluded the images in the archive as they're not used): http://www.mediafire.com/?wcm555nm9qu

I just bought a 360 RB strat and I'm having trouble with the whammy.

At first, whenever I would hit a long note, the music would cut out instantly, like the killswitch was being used automatically, but the animations didn't fire. So I downloaded the 2.931 patch, and now it's just the opposite. The animations fire automatically for all long notes, but the sound doesn't fall out. When I hit the whammy bar, the animations stop, nothing happens to the sound. But when I let back go of the whammy, the sound drops out (and the animations resume). This happens for each individual note.

I have analog setting set to XBOX, btw.

I believe Alarian removed the tutorial when he originally simplified the main menu, many many versions ago. I have no idea how to put it back in.

Picture events in script.txt crash the game? I'll take a look at that...

If you manage to fix the picture events, then the only thing stopping the tutorial coming back is a menu option, I imagine.
Without actually looking at the code, I guess you'd just have to look through the songs folder for a song.ini with "tutorial = 1". Then you have to pick the difficulty, rather than letting the user do it. With my fix to make it appear in the song list, it looks like the tutorial has medium, hard and expert difficulty, all of which have identical notes anyway. Other than that, it plays like a normal song fine.

...The other question is, if it did come back as a menu option, where would it go?

I have added the tut to my new main menu.

Also, I have just finished something else that invloves the song choosing scene. I'll post it here soon. :p

v2.930 seems to be messing up my AV delay. Usually at 100 its perfect, but now the notes are off-synch. I had to set it to 140 or so, but they still seem off a bit, I can't exactly pinpoint the perfect AV delay.

Has anyone else had this problem?

You gotta love it when your post is at the very bottom of a page so no one sees it.
