Okay, here's the deal:I've done EVERYThING to get the songs to appear in the game. I've done EXACTLY what teh FAZ AND y'all told me to do, and it didn't work. I've extracted the file, I've extracted them to the sogs folder, I've even tried copyin them over. God this is driving me bananas! Nothin's workin! :angry:

I came up with a solution, just to go out and get GH3 for computer, but i think I hafta wait till monday :( :(

:p I am having problems with a new song that I have designed. The notes load ok, but when I play the file, the program goes maybe 1 screen then tells me that I have finished the song.

Anyone else have this problem ?????

You do not go to import! Import is for making your own songs, just extract the file into your songs folder, then open up fof and go to play game.

First @ MEXICANKID16 Did you just post blindly without even reading the previouse 12 pages of posts, FOR GODS SAKE, READ THINGS. We have said over 300 times now " YOU DO NOT PUT RAR FILES INTO YOUR SONG FOLDER, YOU MUST EXTRACT THE RAR FILE FIRST ! Now go read the forum you idiot!

Now for HEXYLE... You too have managed to fail at just looking up! HOW ?? EXACTLY 4 posts above yours Blackfate clearly says, ignore IMPORT that is not for putting songs into the game, it is for ripping the songs from the GH2 disk. All you need to do is extract the rar file,then copy the folder it gives you, to your fretsonfire/data/songs folder, you allready said you copied it to your songs folder . so now you just load the game and choose PLAY, the song will be there.

FOR GODS SAKE WILL PEOPLE JUST LOOK AT A FEW POSTS BEFORE TYPING ALL THIS MEANINGLESS CRAP!!!! my cat could figure this out its that simple. 2 things thats all it is nothing else. Extract the rar file, copy the extracted folder to you SONGS folder . DONE!
