Using the WII Guitar Hero III Guitar with the PC version

[Neil]

Hi all,

If you're interested I've published a guide showing how to use the Wii Guitar Hero III Guitar with the PC version of the game.

It can be found at: http://www.mundayweb.com/progs/gh3-wii.php

Enjoy,

Neil.

Hey I know this post is over 10 years old, but I was hoping someone could help me to hook up my wii guitar hero controller to my PC. When I run the GlovePIE script that is included in the post I get multiple errors that I don't know how to fix. I've been trying to get guitar hero working on my PC for months and I've gone through 2 xPlorer guitars that ended up not working, so this is my last ditch effort.

Hi,

What are the errors exactly?

Cheers,

Neil.

Is the Wii Guitar superior to Guitars offered for PC? Neat guide nonetheless Neil.

Thanks for the feedback - it's good to know the guide is still of use after all these years

I have to confess I've never used the PC guitars. I only wanted to use my Wii guitar with the PC version to take advantage of the ability to add custom songs.

Cheers,

Neil.

Hello! First of all, thanks for making the guide! It works great, but I was hoping I could trouble you with a question regarding a problem I'm having.

Everything seems to work perfectly except for Star Power. I can't get it to activate by tilting the guitar or by pressing Select. In addition, when I run the gh3 script in GlovePIE there seems to be an error on line 12 which may be related to my issue. When I run the script, the line that's highlighted red is as follows:

debug = 'whammy=' + wiimote.Guitar.WhammyBar + ', pitch=' + RemoveUnits(Wiimote.Pitch)

And at the bottom of the window, an error message reads:

12: [internal] Access violation at address 005A5D56 in module 'GlovePIE.exe'. Read of address 00000000

Do you know what this could mean, and/or how I could fix the Star Power issue?

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi,

I recently updated my site to include a copy of GlovePIE that I use. It can be downloaded from: https://www.mundayweb.com/html/_downloa ... PIE030.zip

I believe this should fix the GlovePIE error message.

On the Star Power front I am unsure why it is not working. I take it you are using Windows 10? I have to confess I've not tried the set-up for quite some time - the last time for me was under Windows XP.

Cheers,

Neil.

When I run the GlovePIE content that is incorporated into the post I get numerous mistakes that I don't know how to settle. I've been endeavoring to get guitar legend taking a shot at my PC for quite a long time and I've experienced 2 xPlorer guitars that wound up not working, so this is my final desperate attempt.

Hi,

What errors are you getting?

Note: I've only tried GlovePie with Nintendo Wii Les Paul guitars.

Cheers,

Neil.
