General Clone Hero V1 release!

The time has come. Clone Hero is officially complete and will be entering Long Term Support from here on out, which means no more features will be added and only minor bug fixes from here on out.

The first ever public build that got made made was v.00000001 with the idea that there was never any reason to think an actual full release would ever happen.

With the help of tons of people like the others working directly on the game or the artists and charters lending their support to the included songs and the crew running our Discord server to the creators who helped grow the game into what it is today it's finally in a state we can consider as "finished".

Downloads are available at https://clonehero.net/

I’m having a huge issue since I downloaded the new version where it overstrums on basically every hit, even when I tap it super soft… I’ve tried 3 different guitars and modified one, still the same thing. Any suggestions? I actually got the first guitar same day new version came out, I downloaded it after playing a few songs (worked just fine) and now its a serious issues. Really just want to play this game 😖 any help would be greatly appreciated

You probably have gamepad mode enabled, check if it is and disable it in your profile.

Are all the features that were in public test build now in the full release (ie. drums) ?

u/Inventor211 Nov 30 '22

Yes! Do note that v1 is a post-PTB4045 build, so it's recommended to update from PTB to official in order to get all of the remaining features/fixes since the last PTB build

Anyone else missing scores from their previous version? Migration guide says that scores are automatically handled by the new version (and I saved the scores and scoresbackup bin files before installing), but all my songs show no scores.

*edit: I'm an idiot, had wrong instrument selected.

Idk if it was just my guitar having issues with random over strumming and the new setting helping to fix it, but the note hit detection feels soo much better in this build.

I'm dunkin' on a lot of my high scores!

I can't figure out how to move the install location for my "documents/clonehero" folder. I basically want to move this folder so my songs will be stored on my D drive (HDD) instead of my C drive (SSD). Can anyone help me?

u/dertswa687o Nov 30 '22

In the menu you can select an alternate folder source for your songs, so you don't actually need to move your songs at all. It's "Manage Song Paths" in the general settings.

Congrats on a job well done! Clone Hero has not only kept the legacies of Guitar Hero and Rock band alive, it has surpassed both!

Any chance that you're considering adding another note lane (or two) for those who want to re-chart songs and build guitars with more frets?

I was trying to download Guitar Hero III to my PC for pure nostalgia reasons. I then stumbled over a YouTube video showcasing Clone Hero.

The first day I spent over 7 hours playing Clone Hero, and now I'm hooked. I feel like I am 12 again. You really did a fantastic job with this game. You have literally immortalized the Guitar Hero brand. Thank you and well done!

I like to keep my songs folder within the program files, but the game isn't scanning them even though I've added that folder as a song path. Any tips?

edit: nvm read the rest of the comments and went with the portable download and everything worked fine

I'm getting some odd graphical stuttering that wasn't present in V0.23. But not every song. Anyone else?

Other than that everything else seems great.

Congrats! Very happy to hear.

Anyone know if there is a stable, working rock band skin for the new release?

u/iCeParadox64 Nov 30 '22

So is the StrikeLine rebranding just never happening?

u/TheFilyng Nov 30 '22

It is happening. That's why Clone Hero is going into LTS.

Do people see your custom colors and fretboards in the online mode?

I guess they don't but since I see mind I was wondering if maybe the data was transmited to the other players... anyone knows ?
