chickenliver, i believe your plugin can read the strumbar.

its just that the way guitar hero was coded basically uses the pseudocode below for determining if a note is correct.


Code:
if (input == guitar hero guitar) {
    if (correct fret is pressed) && (check if strumming) {
        score++;
    }
}
else if (input == dualshock2controller) {
    if (correct fret is pressed) {
        score++;
    }
}
so the reason coolcool23 said the strumbar wasn't working was a game problem, not a plugin problem.

its a bit confusing unless you have the game, but i hope you understand what i'm saying.

EDIT:

also take a look at the pics he posted of the config screen. the guitarhero drivers map the guitar hero strumbar as a hatswitch.
