Personally, messing with these settings has made my game unplayable. I've tried restoring default settings and completely reinstalling the game, but my FPS in menus and while playing a song is awful. I'm not sure how to fix it at this point. I've tried changing my settings back to the way I had them prior to watching this video. The same issue remains. Any insight on this would be appreciated.
Holy shit you've changed my life. I've been wondering for so long why every time I played a song it felt like it was de-synced and I was missing easy notes. You've open my eyes up to an entirely new game
What I find strange is before v1.0, I set my max FPS to 120 and it stuck there. Once I got v1.0, it always hung around 113 FPS for some reason. Once I changed it to unlimited I now get around 338 FPS which helps SO much
I really enjoy all your tutorial vids along with your recommendations, this is definitely a good series and an amazing set of guides for anybody throughout the entire CH community,
I have been playing Guitar hero for 15 plus years and basically hit a barrier when it came to my skill level. I swear to god I put these changes in and I'm now nailing stuff I've genuinely never been able to hit before. I made a joke to my girlfriend that I swear it's like I made a deal with the devil for a skill increase all due to the settings in this video and I genuinely can not thank you enough. Bruh.
I know this video is 2 years old, but this seriously helped a TON!!! I've always felt decent at the game but I felt like I was being held back by something so when I changed these settings it felt like I was a pro! It also helped me FC Eruption by Van Halen! Thanks dude!
Couldnt be me missing thousands of notes cause my poll rate was low, thanks dude im already noticing myself hitting parts i would randomly just miss in in the past!
i kept fiddling with the frame cap and vsync and it kept being unstable until i turned off vsync and framecap at the same time, the framerate increase of the buttons help allot as well, these things i keep forgetting when leaving clone hero for a few years. thank you for this video.
i had 64% on devil went down to Georgia then i put on these settings on (except i used 10 note speed because im used to 7) and got 83% first try this one video made me magnitudes better thank you
Dude I just want to say you thanks you really help me in the gamplay really. I play on a PS4 controller because I don't have the money to have a guitar and there was some parts of the songs that I thought that were impossible but now they're easier for me, really thanks you got a new subscriber :D
Nice video! Thank you for this info. Just a heads up, the videos you mentioned are not in the description, but it is okay since navigation is possible.
Dude, this seriously helped! I was wondering why my bot just wasn't hitting as many notes as it had with the initial V23, and also wondering if this was also affecting my ability to hit notes, as I felt I had made a regression in skill. I just changed a few of the settings, with the main ones being Note ANimation FPS, Star Animation FPS and Controller Poll Rate. Tested my bot, sections the bot struggled with majorly in the past were now being hit with ease. Hopefully this translates in me returning to my initial skill rate. I won't be a god but I can at least be decent again. Thank you again, so much!
I just found this video and I appreciate the setting explanarions. However, I am hesitant to turn on infinite frame. I have a 144hz monitor. Wouldn't more frames just be adding stress to your gpu without much benefit?
Question man, just set up clone hero and all i got at the moment is a GHL guitar and none of the notes register when i hit them? Even with poll rate at 1000, any idea whats up?
I'm new to the clone hero community and i wanted to improve because i cannot get out of easy mode with my keyboard (waiting for the ps2 to pc adapter) and I will try your tips
At 50 sec mark I noticed your guitar is missing the wii mote? Do you have it dangling down behind it or is something else going on there for playing with that guitar?
@@gatordude1097 can that adapter support multiple controllers connected? thanks for answering btw, been a gh head for decades, but finally getting around to clone hero. having issues downloading some songs but i'm searching for answers
@@realicepick285 It only connects one at a time but you can buy multiple adapters and a USB hub for your PC if you need multiple people playing at a time
The thing is if i connect my GH Live Controller it works perfect, the only thing that is disturbing is why my down/up strumming dont work? In the menu it is clean but if i play a Song it doesnt work
I am new to this game and do not have a Guitar or anything yet so just using a Xbox One controller to mess around. When I hit notes, there doesn't feel like there is any feedback or indication of hitting the note (except the visual indicator on screen) - is this normal or is there some setting to make this better?
hey man really appreciating these videos as i learn more about Clonehero, i really only played these games when i was young and like got rockband 2 for christmas, so im a bit confused on how during that song your were practicing to show off the highway, you were strumming notes while you brought your hand up to hit notes, how were you getting the game to recognize you strummed without strumming the bar? Hope this made sense lol, thanks anyways
Hammer ons/blue notes (dk their real name) you just need to press the button. White outlined notes are pull offs and you have to hit the regular note infront of it to work right Blue tinted notes you just have to press the color and strumming or hitting previous notes isn't required.
to add onto the other persons comment, hammer ons NEED A COMBO to be hit, if youmiss a note you have to strum again to go into "tap mode" for the out lines however it is always just a tap, but you can strum if you need to for speed
But where are the links to the other videos mentioned in this one? I mean... you give your settings, but then there's not mention as to what they do or why you choose them for the ones you say you talk about in other videos. But what other videos?
I'm back to say again this worked it feels almost like aimbot lmao. Before, I had to be so precise but now you have some play with your hits and also I recommend putting speed on 9 to start off.
Do you have any tips on safely streaming CH without getting banned? I saw someone say if you bump up your speed to 110% that works? But not sure how to do that?
All that note and star animation fps does, is to make the video/gif the notes (gems) consists of to play faster. Each note consists of a looping video. Doesn't really affect gameplay whatsoever, just cranking it up looks kinda wrong imo since the animation is intended to be slower.
for some reason every time I play and if I hit buttons too fast it flips my whole thing like a flip, and then it causes me to miss notes, anyway to fix that?
@@brianadhitya6410 have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling it? Thats what I plan to do and delete all my data and just import all my songs to the new one
Dont do the infinite frame rate. If you do that if your computer isnt very good it could jump around alot and you could have lag spikes. If yours is bad keep it locked at 30.
Hi. Question: I use CloneHero Launcher. When I finish to play a song, in the score it says (score disabled) so my score don´t save anymore. I can´t find the option to restore score ON.
Clone hero launcher automatically updates the game right? It may have updated to the public test build thing which doesn’t save scores at the moment as it’s not fully ready or something
I know this video is old and maybe no one will answer but how do you use your guitar without putting the wii controller in it. I currently pair using bluetooth the wii controller and use glovepie

You don’t disable v-sync because it’s bad. V-sync is great for pretty much every game, but Clone Hero doesn’t need it because tearing’s not going to be noticeable at 2000 fps.
Every frame is an opportunity for an input. That's why the game is much easier to play at 100 fps than 30 fps. Even though your monitor can only show you 144 frames, your opportunity for input will be whatever your frame rate is. If you run 500 frames, that's more opportunity to hit a note than 144 frames 😃 TLDR: Essentialy, having more opportunity for input makes it easier to hit notes.
@@gatordude1097 surprised to get a reply! Thanks! Have you done a video on hardware mods? Ie, cutting the rubber mesh under the frets to hit more notes?
I hate to break it to you, but it doesnt matter if you have vsync on or not or if the frames are set to infintite. Regardless, you cant display more frames than you monitor is limited to. Having infinite frames can actually slow down the rate because you are generating frames you cant see.
GatorDude Every frame is an opportunity for an input. That's why the game is much easier to play at 100 fps than 60 fps. Even though your monitor can only show you a limited amount of frames, your opportunity for input will be whatever your frame rate is. If you run 500 frames, that's more opportunity to hit a note than 144 frames
Mainly the game's video settings deal with FPS anyways, not graphics quality. So, I would recommend increasing the fps. If you run into issues, you can lower the settings. But CH is very easy to run on even the most potato of laptops
I just want my midi drums to work with this game... I have a keyboard and fbv mkii hooked up and my ded 80 and i think it's trying to use other devices not my drums.
The very first piece of advice is sadly incorrect. V-sync will keep Clone Hero from running the highway at a different interval than your monitors refresh rate, If you do not use V-sync you will start to see black flashing lines where the picture is not being refreshed at the same time. TURN V-SYNC ON
Alright so first of all is your monitor is locked at a specific frame rate, you're not going to get more frames. That's not how it works. Second of all, screen tearing doesn't always happen, so only turn on vsync when you do experience it. Third, the actual problem with vsync is that it buffers frames, making the latency higher. General rule: if you're getting screen tearing, turn vsync on. If not, leave it off.

The very first piece of advice is sadly incorrect. V-sync will keep Clone Hero from running the highway at a different interval than your monitors refresh rate, If you do not use V-sync you will start to see black flashing lines where the picture is not being refreshed at the same time.

If it helps with your setup then turn Vsync on. I've never had that problem
