18. Now, copy the .ogg file you created a while back.
19. Paste it into the folder once. Rename this "song" (without the quotes)
20. Paste it into the folder once more. Rename this "guitar" (without the quotes)

21. Now open notepad
22. Type what you see here

Frets on fire is the game that i posted like months ago (see the link above) it's basically Guitar Hero on Pc.

Yes, you can take ANY song you want by any band, and by these programs will convert is into the game.

Put my songs in it biotch..


I'm not kidding. I still need somone to tab most of The electric Nightmare's songs so i can play em again.
I just played em all on the spot, recorded it and done. The one i want tabbed the most is "Youth of the World "FINAL VERSION" that might be cool in frets on fire (really easy though, but it's still my best song)
