    R1 Arrow Scrolling Speed.. a howto.

    Ok, I am typing thing in reply to another thread... "who plays ffr sideways", I think.. either, this is going to show you how to speed up your FFR arrows by quite alot.

    What you need:
    A monitor

    A video card, or program that will allow you to flip your monitor.
    (ATi Catalyst drivers will let you do this for sure, my old nVidia drivers also had it, but for those of you without a video card, I'm sure there is a program out there that will let you do it.)

    And a keyboard with a numberpad, on the right.
    ---

    Step 1: Right Click on your desktop, go to properties. If you are using windows XP it should bring up a themes menu with some tabs at the top. Themes, Desktop etc.

    Step 2: Click the settings tab, and go to advanced... there should be an nVidia control panel, or ATi Catalyst drivers.

    Step 3: On the front page of the Catalyst control panel, there should be a Displays Manager, and lower there is a rotation option, rotate it to Right, 90 degrees cw.

    Step 4: Moving the mouse/navigating is going to be weird, so I reccomend you already have a window with FFR R1 already loaded up.

    Step 5: Turn your keyboard to the right, so the number pad is nearest you, the 6 key should be the equivalent of down. Make sure num lock is off.

    Step 6: Open up the FFR R1 window that you should already have open, choose the scrolling direction that looks like up-scrolling.

    Step 7: Pick a song as you normally would, and play.


    I don't particularly care for fast speed, but after reading that post, I had to prove to myself that I could do it, so now I'm passing it on, tell me if it works for you.

    Laymen's terms:

    Basically all you're doing is rotating your picture, then playing sideways. Since the FFR window is longer sideways, it stretches out the arrows as they're moving up, effectively spacing them out and speeding them up, making it easier to hit them on the exact timing.
