Guitar hero on Linux

first you've gotta compile a planet with an atmosphere for the sound to travel through before even thinking about playing the guitar

No, you gotta build everything from the big bang onwards.
- No, that's the recipe for apple pie.
- Also, your rhythm and timings start from the moment of the Big Bang
- you joke, but in earlier days (circa 2002) it took my imac g3 5 days to compile the gentoo distro kernel; after day 3 i started to wonder if i was compiling the universe. lol
You folks are living in the stone age. In the current millennium, plenty of consumer-grade pre-built planets are available.
All you have to do is occasionally spend your weekend debugging incompatibility of gravity and quantum layers.
hopefully they will add binaries into flatpak or something. i hate to compile gui apps

At least you end up with an actual useable instrument at the end and not a plastic toy

Also we are already onto bundling it as a .deb
- Great, as soon as you have that working we'll just make it useless in Ubuntu and rebundle everything plus their mothers in a snap
- And on the AUR
Sure, but doesn't mean you can't have fun with it though.

I've played Clone Hero on Linux, works great

One of those rare games with an actually good native Linux version

The hilarity here is that iirc this first showed up on !linuxsucks@lemmy.world , and gained a 3rd of the popularity. At least we see and understand what it is like if you go the Gentoo route.

I didn't know linux sucks was a thing 💀
- Mostly people that can't or won't setup anything more complicated than a PS1
- Lots of negative scores over there. On the joke community. Way to feed the trolls everyone.

This is far too linear, where are my choices? There must be a fork of this body that is full of switches and got an included amplifier.

make && make install

Done.

Only five missing dependencies, ten configuration mistakes and three compiler errors to go.
- Oooh! Better than usual!

Not true. Those pieces look like they fit together.

Edit: I bet it even came with human readable instructions.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frets_on_Fire

It's been available since 2006, works very well

These days I'd recommend Clone Hero
- Or yarg which I’ve found runs better on weaker hardware.
Man, I had Frets on Fire loaded with every song imaginable. I loved that shit.
I got Clone Hero recently and I love it, but my time with the ol’ hero games has passed.
Aww, I used to play this on my keyboard some 15 years ago. Fun times.
Damn, I remember installing it in the school's computer and playing during classes while holding the keyboard just like in the game logo.
Yes, I was the weird kid.

Ngl a diy guitar kit looks like a fun project.

I've seen them on AliExpress. They likely sound and play like shit but that's besides the point of the novelty of building your own functional guitar.
I saw a double-neck kit that I'm really considering as a gift for a friend of ours.
Ok now I'm looking for kits. I bought the lowest tier Jackson warrior and you get what you pay for. I should've gone higher up the product list.

this meme was last true 20 years ago

Clearly this is LFS (Lute From Scratch)

I don't even play but I'd love to assemble a guitar.

I do play and I absolutely guarantee any guitar I would try assemble would play so so badly. Setting up a guitar is an exercise in precision engineering with wood.
- an exercise in precision engineering with wood
  With wood, an hilariously imprecise material (for anyone who doesn't know). It refuses precision on principle first, and then just on occasion, at every opportunity later.
  That delicious (infuriating) imprecision is probably why it can sound so frickin great, though, so...

Not nearly text-based enough

sudo make guitar

ends up in dependency hell

Where the hell did I leave my shark repellent?

sudo make guitar
Oh no. Do not build guitar as root.
- sudo make guitar
  why my cursor gone?

Does Rocksmith 2014 remastered work on Linux?

It barely works on Windows.
That being said I've tried this with with success in the past.
https://lutris.net/games/rocksmith-2014/

I just wish someone was making half decent 3rd party hardware to use with Clone Hero thats NOT over $60.

goodwill or other such type stores is the only option. or a garage sale with an unknowing seller

I love this!
30$ if you assemble it yourself. 60$ if you don't.

Pretty sure the command for this was

sudo rm -rf

You mean Gentoo or LSF?

Either is fine... more or less...

I love the API!

Pluck (String1(35)) #35ms

Some parts are now sanctioned and cannot be distributed at the moment

Uuu, that's a nice take, I like that.
Too bad it might not be a joke in the future.

Would this be one of those

        chmod ./*.sh

commands?

Nope.

./configure make guitar

I got 9 of those! Analog and windows free ☺️ The sustainiac humbucker on one of them does require a battery chance from time to time though 🎸

Gaming on linux is not that bad today. Look at valve's success with the steamdeck. All past and present issues are because developers were aiming to a different platform, with proprietary tooling.

In meme terms, is like Fender made the guitars for people with different hands. You can't play, but it's their fault.

Me when I learn Clone Hero on Linux needs increased file limit to run without freezing:
