  1. I've got all songs set to full difficulty (no dynamic up or down) and every CDLC rates at 100% after finishing. The counter on the left gives me the accurate number and voiceover (eg "Decent performance/You're gonna be a superstar!"), but the big percentage on the left goes all the up to 100% after all my CDLCs. The regular DLCs work as normal and give accurate readings. Is there a fix to this? Common problem? (I didn't see anything posted here, but I could have missed it.)
  2. Thanks for the input and ideas, Sniper. I appreciate it. I was moving and deleting a lot of stuff and emptying the can. I foolishly thought I was all set when I clicked the fateful Cloud update and went back to zero. Both drives are SSD. Never thought of putting the old drive back, but I used the Steam utility to move the files from old to new, THEN I overwrote them with the cloud save. But that's a good idea, I may see if I can find a backup point on the old drive and computer. My old computer was using Windows 8.1 ! You're right about the main thing being that the game is working. I'm just frustrated with myself for being so reckless and careless with something I use so much. SO stupid not to have multiple copies of everything before I started screwing around with it. (Let this be a lesson to all of you when you get new computers!!) Thanks again. If I can't find an old save, I'll just take it as a challenge to repopulate my numbers!
  3. This is my Hail Mary. So I'm setting up my new computer and I installed my old hard drive with RS on it as a secondary drive . I copied all the RS files over to the Steam folder on the C drive but it kept starting from the old drive, so I used the "move files" option in steam to move RS from the old drive to the main C drive. After I restarted RS, I got a prompt about whether I wanted to use an old save or the new cloud save. Well, it was late and I wasn't thinking, so I clicked on the cloud save. You know what happened next. The CDLC was all there and working, but none of my progress, settings, favorites, etc. were there. It was like playing for the first time. I'm almost positive there's no way to get my old progress back after trying the "usual" remedies, but I thought I'd see if there was some miracle I'm missing. After all, I'm the guy who deleted the old files after moving everything to the new drive. I do have a backup of my CDLCs. Any ideas? No OneDrive or other cloud backup. Is it possible to load old steam cloud saves beyond the ones readily available (Steam-Restore Game Backup)? I didn't have Steam synch on until late in the process. The only two cloud saves are from this morning. I have a local save from yesterday, but it's less than a kb and isn't recognized by Steam. Couldn't find any other local saves, surprisingly. ps Yes, I know I'm an idiot. I was tired and frustrated.
  4. A thousand thanks to whoever came up with this solution! You people rock. When the update launched I had a bad feeling -- with the release of Rocksmith+ I was afraid something like this might happen -- and sure enough: Note highway, but no movement, no notes, no way out except to close. Came here, found the JustInCaseWeNeedIt fix and SHAZAM back in business!!!
  5. A couple of weeks ago the shoulder of my fretting hand started bothering me. I didn't think too much about it, just figured I'd tweaked it somehow. Well, it didn't go away and I eventually realized it's injured/inflamed because of the way I have to hold the guitar/bass while playing in my office chair. Because it has non-movable integrated arms, I'm forced to keep my elbow and arm at an unnatural position on the outside of the chair. Your body can deal with some of that nonsense, but if you play too much with an unnatural position like that you will injure yourself. Since I realized the problem I've been sitting on a large pillow to elevate myself above the arms. More generally, be aware of how you hold your guitar and avoid bad habits or positions that will lead to injury.
  6. No Buddy Holly in a 50's 3-pack. Therefore, ipso facto, a Buddy Holly 5-pack is coming our way. That's my hope and theory and I'm sticking to it.
  7. Yeah, tried both patches and the other workaround, but it didn't work for some reason. A fresh install worked when I was able to get over to my friend's, though. Thanks for the concern. I'll update my earlier comment to reflect my current successful reinstall.
  8. The importance of CDLC's in my RS2014 experience has been highlighted by the week-ago crash of my PC. I had to put Windows on a new hard drive and moved all my Steam files from the old hard drive to the new hard drive -- and everything works except for RS and RS2014. [Odd thing: When I downloaded Steam itself to C: (new hard drive) it made changes to my Steam files on F: (my old drive). I don't recall exactly because it was several days ago and happened so fast, but something like: "Deleting files on F: Steam..." appeared. Steam is still there, but that description alarmed and surprised me. And since it doesn't work now (yes, trying to start from C:)...Anyhow, I digress....] Now I can't get RS2014 to work on my PC even after removing all the CDLC from the dlc folder. I've been only been able to play the basic game -- with a few add-on official dlcs -- on my 360. And let me tell you, going from ~800 songs to 80 songs SUCKS!! (Most of my official dlcs are on my PC.) So, long story short, thanks again from the bottom of my heart CDLC creators. Without CDLC's I don't know if I'd still be playing. If I were playing, I certainly wouldn't be playing NEARLY as much. My only regret is that this game and you guys weren't around when I first picked up a guitar when I was 12! Secondly, Steam hasn't done any hanky-panky to stop "new" RS2014 people from using CDLC's have they? I must have tried to start RS2014 100+ times since my crash. Sad Joe. Teddy strongly disapproves of this state of affairs. I've tried everything I can think of to get RS2014 going again on my PC, short of deleting both Steam and RS2014 and redownloading them. And I'll do that this week or next when I can bring my PC over to a friend's house (I have a data download cap). Edit: Got it working again with a fresh install of Steam and RS14!
  9. **For those who have 2 hard drives, and Rocksmith is installed not in the boot drive but in the second one.** You need to create a symlink in the ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/ pointing to /Volumes/<otherdrive>/SteamLibrary/SteamApps/common All works again. I don't know what this means!!! After a crash I couldn't start RS14 from my old hard drive (now F) so I moved RS14 to my new hard drive but Steam wants to download the thing again even though it's RIGHT THERE!!! I need to either get it to realize I've moved RS14 onto my new hard drive © or get it to work off the old hard drive (F). HELP, I'm about to tear my hair out! Given that my new hard drive is C and my old one is F, what do I type where? Or, How do I get Steam to realize that the game is already in the folder it's trying to download to? Usually, it "knows" but it doesn't this time for some reason. When I verify cache it just verifies the few files it's downloaded, not the whole game I've moved from my old hard drive. ps I have limited download abilities -- less than a gig a day. Edit: I moved everything from F, where it was working fine before it crashed, onto C, my new boot drive. I get the little popup like it's going to work, then the "rocksmith.exe has stopped working...." crash a second later Edit 2: Still doing the same thing. It's SOO annoying not being able to play the game -- I just got Hendrix! -- but rather than tear my hair out about it and try a thousand (more) little things for the next week, I'm going to put it aside until I can bring my desktop over to a friend's house where I can redownload/update from scratch as need be without worrying about data usage. Edit 3: Got a new computer, downloaded Steam and RS 14 fresh, added the patch and the CDLC and BOOM! first try working like a charm!!
  10. This is amazing. After the Hendrix folk signed on with BandFuse, I thought it would be a looong time (or never) before RS was able to release any Hendrix. With the demise of BF, the rights holders wasted little time allowing RS to have at it, though. One could quibble about the price, or that the BOne/PS4 people get it for free, but remember the main thing: 12 Hendrix songs at once! That's very cool. Surprised they didn't do Crosstown Traffic (one of my faves). Edit: Just checked the CDLC and Crosstown Traffic is here, of course, though I somehow missed it. You guys rock! Many thanks, Karmeleaux!!
  11. Not selling as well lately, it's #44 on Amazon (US/cable/xbox360). Last week it was in the 30's IIRC. Still, impressive staying power for something that's been out as long as Rocksmith 2014 has.
  12. I wonder if the world would just run by the guts of an idiot like you... <_< If you're going to insult me, at least be clear about it. Please elucidate your point.
