Este problema se puede solucionar reinstalando el programa
Please upload the Playstation 2 version. This one is full of bugs.
Where’s disc 2? I want to install the song pack and can’t figure it out
There’s no disc 2, as i’m pretty sure the song packs never made into the PC version of the game, remaining an Xbox/Playstation thing only.
I went into setting just to up the graphics and restarted and all my career progress was lost. is this expected?
It wasn’t easy, but I was able to install it and get it working on Windows 10.
Installing took a while because it kept getting error #1723. I fixed it by going to local disk (C:), then program files (x86), then I made a new folder and named it “Aspyr”. Inside the Aspyr folder, make another folder and name it Guitar Hero 3. Inside this folder, you need to insert a file called awl.dll (This file is found in this download! Just copy it to the Guitar Hero 3 folder and it should work).
After I installed the base game, I ran into another problem with installing the .net framework, and then with the GHTCP install. (The .net framework button on this download is meant for Windows 7, which didn’t come with the .net framework installed, and since Windows 10 already has .net framework integrated, you really can just skip this step and move on to GHTCP.)
Installing GHTCP gave me a bit of an issue because it was asking for an update to the .net framework. To fix this, go to windows update and install any .net updates that may be pending. Once they’re installed and the PC has been reset, it should install GHTCP with no issue.
Last issue, the biggest hassle for me: using a rock band guitar controller. FYI Guitar Hero 3 only works with Guitar Hero controllers, but there is a workaround. I used a program called XPadder, which basically allows you to emulate keyboard button presses with whatever controller you have. Long story short, you need to map the controller’s buttons to emulate the keyboard buttons, and trick the game into thinking the guitar controller is just you playing with a keyboard. I was able to map all 5 colored buttons, the strum bar, the D-Pad, and the Start and Select buttons; the only thing missing is getting the whammy bar to work (I’m still working on it).
Thought it would be nice for others to benefit from this in case they run into the same problems as me. If you’re using another Windows OS, or Mac or Linux, then I cannot help you. Still, all I did was google around and see what other people said worked for them, and gave it a shot.
Good luck!
There is no way to get to disc 2 to get all the songs
absolute shit, you cant use the down-strum and all the guitar battles suck ass, not worth your time
