I'm pretty sure custom game toolkit has been unsupported for close to 10 years also. So you're not likely to find support for that.
My recommendation is to update the game, no beta path, update the DLL, and use rsmods. If you've still got your DLC folders in a backup location, just move those over into your rocksmith directory

Hasn't been needed in like 2 years.
What is CGTR? This is the only post I can see on the forum ever mentioning that
Yeah, I've done a couple chart repairs, and that's a necessary option when doing so. Otherwise the notes are all dispersed over difficulty levels in EOF and you can't find the right spot to adjust the notes. Becomes an exercise in futility lol
Worth noting with Phantasy's steps here: DLC Builder has an option to flatten DD when unpacking a psarc and creating an EOF file. You want that option selected
For what it's worth, RS2014 officials use handshape notation and not arpeggio group notation. It's recommended for readability to use handshapes and not arpeggios
My suggestion is to try rebuilding the song using DLC Builder instead of Song Creator Toolkit. The toolkit has been outdated for quite a few years now and is probably causing you more trouble than you need.
If you need a download link, it's available on Firekorn's CDLC tutorial here or by clicking the Create CDLC link on the top of the page
For what it's worth, I've got games that have been delisted from steam for 10 years that I can redownload still here in 2024. It's so unlikely to happen to have the actual game files removed from distribution through steam that I'm calling it impossible unless steam itself dies.
You can potentially find steam keys from places like Amazon, it's just going to be expensive. But so long as it's a sealed physical copy it should activate on steam without trouble
> I do own both RS games and i purchased the import tool long ago.
Then you should have the songs listed here available in RS2014.
Again though, if you never bought DLC for the first rocksmith, then rs1compatibilitydlc will do nothing for you in game because you needed to purchase those. CFSM will show those because of how those files work, but if you didn't buy RS1 DLC songs, you don't get them in RS2014
The compatibility disc imports original Rocksmith songs into RS 2014, but you need to own the original.
Similarly, compatibility dlc made original rocksmith DLC compatible with 2014, but if you didn't buy any of those they won't show up.
Short answer, you needed to own original RS and original RS DLC. Those files do nothing if you didn't buy any of those
