I dont know if this was already figured out, but i figured this out my self. You can also hold the keyboard like a guitar! To make a guitar hero map: Put 5 Nexus for 1 player. Tell him to hotkey each one (First one = 1 Second one = 2 etc.) Now, turn keyboard Upsidedown (Numbers facing down) Scince the hotkey to make a probe is P, we use that to strum. Use 1-5 as frets, and P to strum! Now all you have to do is add music, triggers, and your done! Its awesome, i just figured it out last night. What sucks about it though, is that you cant do chords. D: Edit: Wewt 1337th Post!

Um... if you're going to do that why wouldn't you make it more guitar-like actually? say... 6 frets like areal guitar? Also, you could probably use the UEDs vision move detection to use arrow keys to do this...

Not really a bad idea... but making the triggers work right in sync with the music won't be the funnest thing in the world... And them remember... things will change if someone plays only online and then someone else plays it only on single player. There will be a big difference for those 2 game modes..

I was thinking of an EUD DDR with arrow keys, you could also use EUDs and p for pluck on guitar hero, for example in hammerons you could press P on 1, then hold down 2 and use an EUD to detect that. Trigs are simple. If your looking at 1,2,3,4, or 5 then set a death counter to 1, If you bring a probe to 1,2,3,4,5 then kill it and set that death counter to 2, A note is a series of scouts moving down the map in a lane, colour coded of course. if there is a scout in the note area when you strup then it kills all the scouts for that bottom area in say a 2/12 box, leaving a 2/6 space between notes that are 2/6 long. A held note could be mojo scouts, that get killed as long as your screen is over the right note. If you look away then all the mojoscouts in the note get given to player X and get grayed out like when you unhold a key during a long note. The same thing would go for hammer ons, but with another unit, perhaps we could use all 3 types of scouts upgraded so they'd go the same speed.

I demand that all 10 number keys be used and the ability to use Star Power by using another buildings that will have hot keys close to each other (preferably ones in the 'p' and 'o'). This would actually make me play an unmodded version of SC.

OMG, Why wont anybody tell me wtf is EUD!? Edit: Also, I was planning on using zerglings instead of scouts..

Scouts win cause there's three of them with the same speed. EUDs are extended unit deaths, using conditions to check certain values in starcraft's memory usage.

Look for the test map in the DLDB, I think Kenoli made it.

You don't even explain what type of map to look for... To make things easier for you, this can't be done without having to put up with tons of editing and what not. Have fun opening and closing StarCraft to make something like this perfect... sorry

I thought of this idea too, but I didn't want to make it because... how many people on b-net would actually play this game when they could actually play Guitar Hero or Rock Band? [quote=name:Rantent]My keyboard doesn't pull out far enough to hold properly...[/quote] That is another good point. What if they can't even pull their keyboard out? you [i]could[/i] play it with the keyboard down, but it would be too easy.

Not just that, but 3 meg maps seem like they download really slow on B.Net, even when you have high speed. It's possible... but I don't see a lot of replayability. Unless you're currently amazing with hyper triggers, I would NOT want to make this map. A 3 minute song, that's about 720 spots on a death counter. One note a second? I'd say give them a two death counter leeway, with one being "Perfect." You could probably time the notes to the music outside the game, but it's going to be a pita. If you do do it, though, cool cool.
