Guitarfun is a port of the popular game Guitar Hero where players can play songs on a plastic toy guitar.

Guitarfun supports various controllers, including the Wii Les Paul Guitar, USB keyboards, the Wiimote, the Wiimote + Nunchuck, and PS2 guitars through a PS2-to-GameCube converter. Guitarfun can also be played on PC and PS2.

Installation

What you need:

• Wii with Homebrew Channel (or some similar loader) installed. SD memory for the datas.
• "Frets On Fire" songs (you can find it from Internet).
• Keyboard, Wiimote/Nunchuck or Guitar device for Wii (you can play with two guitars or two keyboards).

You must add the songs in the directory /guitarfun/songs/ in the SD memory.

You can add folders with Frets on Fire songs directly or you can create packs. The packs are formed when you create a folder starting with the words pack or PACK, and you put the songs inside this folder.

By default the pack name is the folder name but you can customize it if you put a title.txt file inside the pack folder. The game reads 32 chars to use it as pack name.

Example:

guitarfun/songs/
           |-pack1/
           |  |-4.1 Paranoid – Black Sabbath
           |  |-4.2 Anarchy in the U.K. – Sex Pistols
           |-pack2/
           |  |-AC-DC -Back in Black [FOF.Spain]
           |  |-Avalanch - El angel caido
           |  |-title.txt (file content "1. Misc")
           |-Helloween-I want out

The result in the program:

• 1. Misc:
  • AC-DC -Back in Black [FOF.Spain].
  • Avalanch - El angel caido.
• pack1:
  • 4.1 Paranoid – Black Sabbath.
  • 4.2 Anarchy in the U.K. – Sex Pistols.
• Helloween-I want out.

You can see pack2 uses the name from title.txt and it is ordered alphabetically on the first position.
