Main forum yet?

Hey guys, I've been off and on for the last few weeks. Mostly cause I've been sick, out of town, lost internet, or an ear infection. However, I'm finally back and good to go.

I kept up with the updates and some posts, but haven't really been here to see any updates with the site. I noticed that the PS FOF thread is still going, and was kinda curious when you guys plan on making this forum the main place and breaking apart from the thread. It kinda seems in-between at the moment. (which I don't mind) but this forum is awesome and has grand potential!

Also, really liking the mod section that is finally up! When I get back from band practice tonight, I'm going to post up some stuff I got.

hmm maybe when i spam advertise it? because I think that will draw atleast 40 or so members to the forums... or i think maybe it will slowly move over here.. hard to say.. only fat dog or david could really answer that lol

Well, there are a few good advertising methods. Mostly, just simple videos of a song being played in the game, then giving the forum link at the end. I scored a TON of people to join the old forums from my old videos. (you'll have to deal with noob comments on the videos though, like "How do I add songs" "Does it support x?" "Will it run on my rig?")

Then there is the dreaded "Where do I download GZ?" we had to deal with... It was asked literally hundreds of times. Hopefully we won't have the same deal here

good idea about putting the url at the end of the youtube videos, will probably do that from now on, we do need to make a new video soon as we haven't got one showing the new profile and score system

i don't have any specific plans to end the fof thread, i want to keep this forum legit, so grey area content like songs and clone type themes i'd prefure to see over there, this site isn't just dedicated to PS it'll be a base for all of our projects, the fof forum can afford to be a bit more relaxed

lol that was how I was going to advertise, I have a friend on youtube with about 30,000 subs and he promised me he would feature the video on his channel, but I dont want to do that yet because Im still waiting for the calibration wizard thats the last feature on my checklist

Once I can solidly export stages into the game, I'll start advertising with my Youtube channel. I have all the Guitar Hero II stages/characters/graphics ripped, ready, and waiting. I'm going put together the clone/mod and show it off. That normally draws a huuuuge number of people when they see "GH2 for PC zomg!". Once I get this giant of a GhII mod out, I'll post the GH1 mod and stages, then possibly a GH3 clone with the stages and characters I ripped from there.

Nothing further than that though, I haven't been successful in ripping Rockband and Rockband 2 models... yet... I'll probably go back to finishing my original stage and work more on a few concept stages I started awhile back.

I'm planning on making at least 5 different video montages, showing aspects of the game. It's getting so good, I can't wait to see the mods that come out for it.

I forgot to add; Can you make a "WIP" section under mods? It's really handy and will probably be used a ton.
