Alright I know about stepmania and have gotten very good at it but while searching on veoh for some dragon blade videos from sm, I saw someone playing guitar freaks on what looked like a simulation program.
My question is, is there a simulation program out there for guitar freaks like stepmania? | |

u're probably talking about the ps2 versions of drummania/guitarfreaks. (masterpiece gold/silver, v2, v3)
to answer ur question, there is no actual guitar simulator. quite a number of people tried creating it, but there were too many glitches. | |

Actually, ignore that post, DTXMania has almost 100% GF simfiles support (A few glitches here and there, but nothing much more then that) | |

yep. dtxmania is what you want. you can find decent simfiles packs linked from GDAmania - The Drummania and Guitarfreaks community 's forums.

there's always a "how to set up dtxmania" guide in the gdamania database.
GF controller is a better option.
however guitar hero controller can still be used. | |

Again, no it isn't. If you have the right drivers you can configure the 360 controller to work on XP
I'm not sure on the process, but there should be a guide SOMEWHERE. | |

Get some sorta console - USB converter...
Any will do good with GF, unlike DDR... <_<
But if you use a 360 controller (Which is wireless, I believe)...
Errr...
I'm stumped... >_>

lol thanks for the help guys i really appreciate it. Ok so i have everything set up and i know how to configer but my guitar hero controller wont let me register the pick on the controller for the pick on the pc simulator. The contoller is perfectly calibrated and all and my computer recognizes it and i even have the 3 buttons set up for the frets but I cant imput the pick on the controller for the pick function on the game T.T
Maybe cause its considered a d-pad? idk.. | |

If it's the 360 controller, you're probably using it as a native USB device and just connecting it like that; I would look into using a program like joy2key to map your controller input to characters on the keyboard, that way you can use input that dtxmania actually recognizes.
