Guitar Hero 5 doesn't seem to want to progress past the main menu screen, and freezes there every time. Out of all the rhythm games I own, this is the only one that refuses to work.

Guitar Heroes 3, World Tour, and Warriors of Rock all play flawlessly, as does Rock Band 2 and 3. All of these games work on cios 223 (v5.1). I've already tried cios 223 (v4 and v5.1) but no luck. Any ideas as to what's going on here?

Thanks :)

I've ripped it twice already and no luck. The songs play in the intro and I can join in, but the game will freeze on the main menu. Once, it made it to quickplay. But even after that, it crapped out.

It's not the end of the world but I would like to know why this keeps happening.

I have had this exact problem still to this day not sure why, however I need to check with you for a few things just clarify if it's the same.

1: What Loader are you using?

(I was using CFG Loader v70 for all my games and was having problems with GH5/BH getting stuck loading the main menu like yourself, but now use neogamma r9 for all of my rhythm games and CFG for the others)

2: Is you internet connection on? and what method do you use? (LAN adapter or WiFi?)

(I use a LAN adapter, and when I remove the LAN adapter and thus disconnecting the internet from the Wii, Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero work fine using CFG Loader so I know my problem is a network connection problem)

Try disconnecting your network from the Wii and try loading GH5.

Awesome news. I'm glad I could be of some help.

Be also nice if anyone knew why a network connection causes this problem on CFG Loader, It has me stumped.

    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
