Hey all, I just wanted to touch base with everyone and give a proper update on what's been going on behind the scenes. At the moment COVID-19 has affected all of us. Due to work constraints and other issues, our main developers has not had the time to continue to develop Ignition4. Because of these delays I am announcing that we are currently cutting planned features for Ignition4 to fast-track the release of it. I understand delay after delay can get frustrating. We wanted to bring you a state of the art search engine with all of these amazing features but we keep running into issues so my

Post all your CDLC requests here. Since we no longer have the "Popular" Request system, you can now post them in this, and only in this, topic! NOTICE. Posting a request here does not mean that someone will make it. Spamming the same song over and over will get you suspended. This is not a demand area. The Charters that post their CDLC on CF do so because they want to. You cannot force them to make your song. Do not send PM's to every single charter asking for your song to be made. Basically this is a dumping ground for your requests and nothing more.

Hey all, It's been a tough week for me as I lost my mother a few days ago. Only 6 months ago I lost my father as well. I've been reflecting on my life and what to do for the future of it. I want to continue supporting CustomsForge as best as I can and the best way to do that is to shut down donations permanently as I've been having issues with PayPal & taxes. For the sake of my sanity I am moving the website to a Patron-only support model as it is easier to track and deal with. That way I can resolve my debt issues caused by the site (that is 100% my fault, I didn't know wh

I thought I would share a project that @Rodman and I recently finished. I'm taking a recording and mixing class, and one of the assignments needed a one minute minimum recorded piece with three tracks, then we had to overdub two more tracks. Most of the class are music majors, so I assume it was no big deal for them, however I was at a loss for what to do. Rodman happened to message me, so I asked if he would record a few chord progressions that I could try to do something with. Man, he was all over it and within a few hours had a verse and chorus section recorded. I put some Band in

My first entry to the championship :)

Hey all, As you can see there are large performance issues with the website. I'm fully aware as I get messaged about it from every source possible. With a full time job and as the only sysadmin this falls under as something only I can fix at the moment. I'm having a hard time narrowing the issue down as when the time outs start, there is no backend errors or severe load issues. The other issue is when prime-time (most users on the site) happens I'm usually asleep due to that I work night shift which makes it harder for me to see the issue. I understand everyone's frustrations,

I can finally share this, I didn't want to jinx it by saying anything about it until it was all done. Last week was huge for me, I finally sold my late father's house. I have been taking care of it for years now and it has been difficult as the house was a few hours away. So that was a big personal win! I inherited a motorcycle from him as well and I told myself I would sell it and use the money from it to buy a really nice guitar. Well, I found someone selling a never been played PRS CE24 for a steal of a deal. It all just seemed to fall together, and one road trip later, and this

I very very rarely beat @@Snakewizard, so, this is huge for me :)

Hi all, I wanted to provide an update to let everyone know the status since our last August update. We are proud to announce that ignition4 has completed it's first alpha test. We found plenty of things to fix but this will not delay our next testing phases. We still plan on running another internal staff test to make sure everything is fixed and polished before we let anyone else check it out. While we are working on that, we are working with Invision Power (creator of our forums) on creating a patch to help us upgrade successfully from 3.4 -> 4.5. I have not received the full report o

So we have some rock/metal legends here :D Short comments on selected songs: Butthole Surfers - Pepper Good quality custom and good song for beginners. On Lead it is not very easy (could even be rated 4), there is some solo playing but you can do it. Rhythm is boring, for the most part one powerchord, but still sounds good and Bass is easy too. Black Sabbath - Bassically/N.I.B Only Lead and Bass. On lead chords are not difficult, but the solo parts raises the level of this song. Bass is very interesting and is a challenge for me. Starts with a difficult bass intro, later it's little ea

Figured I'd do a playthrough as it's easy to cheat with songs like this. Played on the 5 string bass path. It gave me notes I probably should have gotten but then made me miss some notes I felt like it should have detected (maybe I was off-rhythm I dunno?) so I think it balances out, and at least it's honest where you can see where it gave me notes I didn't hit. 4th time playing the song, it's actually quite fun. Good luck to everyone else! I encourage you all to record yourself playing.

Unfortunately, I will start this post off with some bad news and that is our lead developer has parted ways with the Ignition4 project. We wish him the best in the future and I want to thank him for helping us get Ignition4 launched. I just wanted to clarify a few things with everyone: We never intended to launch Ignition4 until the main features were completed. This included a long beta testing period where we would fix any problems that we found. We ran into an unrecoverable bug with our old website where the login cookie from the forums would not be sent to Ignition3, causing a log

@Mikson @AllPlayers - .... hardest beginner song ever.... well i tried to level up to int on Rob Zombie - Black Sunshine and made it to 98.05 in 85 tries 6 years ago if i remember correctly, that one may be even a bit harder... but the song this week being int/adv, absolutely agreed, ... howecer that was our rating then, actually it was a straight 3 - so it´s da capoed as Chuck Norris beginner challenge. And always remember... when Chuck Norris is doing push ups he actually pushes the world down.... and so shall you! Rock! Chuck Norris does not do phone calls, he screams!

@Rodman I finally got some time to record my version of Heaven's on Fire. This one turned out to be really fun! Usually I record each part until I get a good take. This time I took a different approach this time and recorded it in sections. I got a drum track from Band in a Box, then I recorded the first verse on guitar, then recorded the vocals for it, and for some recorded a vocal "chorus" an octave higher. Then I did the same for the next section and so on. I put the solo in last, I fear it is just random flailing. I tried to tease around the resolving note and let it ring out at the

I have to share...I just got home from my kids orchestra concert. My son played All About That Bass on the electric bass that belonged my dad and he rocked the solo! My dad would have been proud! And my daughter was so into the music playing her violin, it was great!

Fun song Cool song, but there's a lot to it. Didn't quite click what was going on and I didn't care to take the time to figure it out. Definitely preferred the rhythm path. I didn't have my capo handy so I had to go MacGyver mode with the screwdriver and hair ties!

So hey gues, its been a whle hasn't it? The last time i was here it was about 2 years ago when i did the soundgarden stuff. I've been on hiatus because i wanted to work on other stuff such as my own music, video games mods and brush up on my mental health. It's good to be back and i am happy to annouce that im already working on some new projects. I am doing a total of 4 Linkin Park Albums. Hybrid Theory, Meteora, A Thousand Suns and One More Light, and as of right now, I am uploading all the songs from HT right now as we speak. Most of the songs from HT have their stems released so i have us

Hi guys and girls! Been too long. Miss you and long to spend more time with you, let alone, the guitar. Nice to see a bunch of fresh new faces here. As you'll see below, I am not a threat. :) Week 344! Yikes! That is impressive!! Thanks to our tireless organizers! I know a think or two about their labour-of-love effort, albeit on a much smaller scale. Here is my cold score in this beloved 80's masterpiece. First time I pick up a guitar in nearly 4 months and any significant playing in 3 years.... I yearn to get back into the groove. Need to find a serious job first ... :) I think I n

You are adressing quite some hot topics here. Where do i start!? Adding another class is out of the question. Setting up weeks is a lot lot of work and adding another class would push it over the edge. Plus it is totally unnecessary. It would only lower the number of competing players in each class without any real benefit. I´ve been in int/adv for years always with better players with no chance for a win. Did i belong to that classes - yes, was it fun - yes, did it make me better - yes, vastly. Flipping through your performance - you are clearly an advanced bass player, and you ca

I did it...I've played Rocksmith every day for three years! So I think I'll have a cigar

I played this a ridiculous amount doing the transcription so feel free to disqualify me this week .

Hey everybody, My first time in the championship, thought I'd start on the easy one:

First timer here.

Most importantly: Merry Xmas everybody!!! 2nd... HOLY SHIT! Thats was at my front door when i got up in the morning... that means my price proposal has been accepted, merry xmas to me... abot 2 hours until opening under the tree... cannot wait 3rd... @diceslinger ..... of course had zero time till now for the challenge... i have 60 mins now, so hail mary under the xmas rock

When this album first came out, my metal elitist friends told me it wasn't worth listening to, that Opeth wasn't metal anymore. Years later I listened and wow, it is one of my favourites of theirs. Incredibly underrated. Normally I recommend Sabaton as an "easy" metal band... but that song's not easy! And... a little late, but you can see why this video took a little extra time!

Masterclass Lead 99.09% (sightread) i could probably grind out the platinum pick

@diceslinger- oh my... what a challenge. After your last week vid of course i had to go for vocals and guitar at the same time. Warning: not a singer, never sang my whole life, just talkin my way through the song. It might hurt a bit. I must say it didn´t go bad with the coordination playing and vocals but that lifts the thing on another diff level. As i try to really learn and memorize the songs, the vocals are somehow needed anyway. Let´s see how often i´ll make use of that in the future.... However for the arrangement. First i produced a Trio+ track played along and recorded the vocals. The

Until about 30 seconds from the end, I thought I was gonna 100% this song. Sometimes you're just feeling it I guess.

Unfortunately guys I have to sleep as I work nightshift, our staff will be clearing the issue throughout the day so it will keep going up and down. I tried multiple fixes and I have not found a solution yet but we will keep investigating. The website & discord will be updated once a fix has been deployed that works. I apologize for the problems but we are actively trying to fix it.

Fast fingered bass? Count me in! I was going to make a playthrough video of the sightread, but I forgot to enable my bass amp's mic in obs settings and my phone cut the video short in the middle of the song due to energy saving So here is a short clip of me getting attacked by my chair at the middle of the solo. (Warning, audio is from phone mic only, so it is a bit boomy.) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DoKrLRMtQqzqTgZP-5qZ4Q0wOCFvEyxb/view?usp=sharing

Leaderboard and XP Player levels updated. Have a look here if you like

Hopefully @Rodmancan see it now, I'll be using this one for this week's song since Eb standard and I hate touching my floating bridge guitars for anything other than E Standard.

Where did Gamut go all that time? Well, I've been having a lot of success playing live on Twitch lately! Been making friends with people like Phil from All That Remains, Herman Li from Dragonforce, and Brittney and Andy from Unleash the Archers. Been living the dream! But recently, my apartment became unhabitable due to mold, yikes. Had awful health problems that were getting worse every day. So... I had to evacuate, and now I cannot stream, which was my livelihood. T_T But things are working out. My friend's letting me stay with them for a time, and even though the internet cannot s

Not as much time to play this week (still haven't gotten around to AJFA) but I'm reasonably happy with my scores: I'm a big Silversun Pickups fan so enjoyed this one, and it was a nice benchmark to hear only my bass and have it still sound good: One of the better NW tracks IMO: And Arctic Monkeys songs are fun to play on bass - this one has a really nice groove:

Hello everyone, I just wanted to say thank you to all the awesome people who are making the customs forge and custom songs happen! I'm still new to Rocksmith, but having all these songs available for practicing truly feels like being in wonderland. I think I spent about 2 full days just browsing the database and picking out songs. Wow. So again, THANK YOU GUYS, whoever you all are! You're making a metalhead very happy during these fucked up times.
