XFIRE SUPORT FOR FRONTMAN/GUITAR ZERO 2

[Wolfie]

I have successfully run xfire while playing frontman/guitar zero 2. all features work!


CLICK^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

if any one is interested on how to do this i will gladly make a little tutorial thing.

You just rename frontman to another .exe that xfire supports right?

Doing that isnt the wisest move, because of the way xfire hooks into the game, unexpected things can happen.

Its cool to do if you know how but i wouldnt advise anyone else, it will only lead to complications.

FYI, this was possible with GZ2 as well but i think it had quite a few bugs once you opened the ingame console. Given that the old frontman effectively IS GZ2, i fully expect bugs with this.

EDIT: If you do run it, and want to be safe, you could have a look through the .ini and disable as many hooks as possible, and establish whether things like the overlay will work, or if ingame mouse support is bug free then set the switches accordingly

in the config file i enabled mouse support, it seems to work fine as long as your rez is 800x600 or higher

Once we release a full Frontman and get a few people playing and whatnot, we'll re-petition the xfire crew to include it into the xfire list natively.

Of course, since we'll have online play, replay/video saving, hour logging, and you can't chat while playing the guitar anyways....is there really a point?

i believe the point is to SHOW THE WORLD when we play.

aha.

voice chat would work

I need to get a mic then, and some good internet for my laptop.
