Note: I would recommend you to remove the rumble motors, because in GH they don't have a role.ĭraw your desired guitar shape on 2 of these papers (maintain the proportions to the neck). Ucc - the easiest place where it can be found I won't go into details with these later, there will be a reference always in this step. Y-axis of the left analog stick - whammy bar trimmer (connect it between GND and Ucc) 14. square - orange fret button (be careful, there's no little extra solder pad - but maybe yours will have) 9. start - important for pausing the game and for the in-game menu 8. select - I haven't found any other uses of it than star power 7. L2 - 2 outlets for the motion sensor (star power) 5.
There are a lot of outlets of it fortunately.
PS2 GUITAR HERO GUITARS PS2
You have to solder the left d-pad - as if it was always pressed down - it tells the PS2 that this is a guitar controller (try to push it in the game, the tutorial menu will be unfolded). I used a Typhoon 3rd party PS1 pad, because it had an ugly shape. So our only choice is a PS1 pad if we want to make it compatible with GH2 and the probable further versions (I mean beyond the Rocks the 80s, cuz' it worx the same as GH2). And so why is GH2 so picky? Beats me, but it needs a digital controller with analog sticks, and we all know that the PS2 pad is totally analog! Even the buttons, they are touch sensitive.
It doesn't matter for GH1 though, so you can make a guitar exclusively for GH1 from a PS2 pad.
It is really important to use a PS1 analog controller, because a PS2 controller just won't work with GH2.
