    8/1 Update (Posted from our Discord):
    I'm working on an update to add an FAQ & Tutorial system built into ignition4, but this may take some time to release.

    Our Patreon for the month is processing, if you'd like to support us monthly you can do so via here: https://patreon.com/CustomsForge
    Please note you can connect your Patreon to CustomsForge via: https://customsforge.com/index.php?app=patreonintegration&module=system&controller=patreonconnect
    If you're unable to commit to that and can only do a one time donation, you can donate via: https://customsforge.com/index.php?/donate/make-donation/&_new=1. Any amount helps as we've recently migrated our servers last month to upgrade the OS on the servers. On top of that with the recent new features, that has created more load on the server. I've worked endlessly to optimize this to improve the load times. As of right now it seems to be working okay. Any problems/bugs, or feature requests use the links mentioned in the previous announcement.

    We're working on a feature to show if you're a patreon and/or have donated on Ignition4 by displaying a badge next to your name. This feature may be reworked, but please note this does not add any extra benefits. We just want to show our user's loyalty.  Your support keeps us running and allows us to keep adding these new features. I'm very happy on the state of CustomsForge & Ignition4, and we would like to keep releasing new features/improvements. The main issue is balancing the new features vs how much resources we have, but with the current state of support we should be fine, thanks to the community. 

    I'm currently sick and recovering, so I am taking a small break from coding. Hopefully should be back later this week/next week with more improvements. Our other developer @Zach4531 is currently working on improving Genre/Tag features. 

    New threads have been created for Ignition4:

     

    Thank you for your continued support and rock on! \m/

    Hi!

    I am a bit confused on the new 'Submitted Reports' page. I think I know what you ment with the column, but actually, the status of a Submitted Report is not Enabled. Should be this column not named to CDLC status. That it is enabled or disabled (removed)? Or it is really the report status? Then an open, closed, rejected, etc. status would be better.

    Or both column 🙂

    I have changed the wording to CDLC Status, hopefully that helps.

  9. There is a new forum spam attack happening that is using compromised accounts from previously hacked accounts on other websites. Out of precaution and to prevent old accounts from being used we've reset all passwords for accounts not logged in for over a year. We always recommend all users update their passwords (unique passwords recommended!) and use two-factor authentication for security. You can always check to see if your account has been compromised on another service by using this website: https://haveibeenpwned.com/.

    Our forum software was trying to send a notification to all users that have been reset but that caused our IP to be blacklisted for spamming... Ironic lol so I've canceled those emails and requested a delisting. However, that may mean that sending a new password reset request or account validation emails may not be sent. I apologize for the inconvenience we will happily help you in the support channel of our Discord: https://discord.gg/cf

  10. Hello Everyone,

    Due to Hurricane Ian and the increased expenses post-disaster I am unable to prepay for most renewals this month. I am located in Orlando which was in directly devastated hurricane.

    It is important that we keep our licenses for IP Board addons, development services up (github, laravel related deployment services, etc), servers and other renewals paid on time. 

    Within the last 3 months we have seen a 20% spike which had us increase our server specs to prevent downtime and other load issues.

    If you'd like to help out you can donate via https://customsforge.com/index.php?/donate/make-donation/&_new=1 to keep our services online. Any amount helps.

    Thank you all!

    Just recently bought and installed rocksmith remastered on pc through steam, also bought cherub rock from the dlc. I have done what was instructed on youtube about what to do next and then have a problem not seeing the cdlc file in the program. Then in some other youtube videos, they have mentioned about a dll file that should be in the rocksmith folder and I don't have that file. What would be the best solution to fix this problem? cause once I double click on the file and then it asks which program would you like to use.

    You can use this tool here to install it automatically: https://ignition4.customsforge.com/tools/CDLCEnabler

    Have fun!

  12. It's Halloween season! 🎃

    I hope everyone is doing well as I've known from personal experience the last couple years have been difficult. 

    I just wanted to provide a recap and give everyone some updates:

    If you're unable to support us via Patreon - disabling ad-blocker is another method of providing support to CustomsForge. 

    Announcements

    Server Move

    With your help via Patreon we've successfully migrated our server to a new location with NVMe drives. Additionally we've split our servers to improve performance. This may take a few weeks to fully optimize but so far it feels better already.

    Newsletter

    The newsletter has found multiple delays due to trying to find a replacement method of viewing/displaying it without requiring an advanced editing software and the use of PDF. I've found a solution that I am currently testing and I am hoping to have the newsletter revived before the year is over.

    YouTube

    Our YT hasn't launched yet but it is currently on indefinite hiatus until we can find the best way to approach it. For now we highly recommend Chainbrain's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgeE4uJZqmsQBURNPKs9Haw

    Ignition5 Cancelled, Ignition4.5 is now planned.

    As of now, ignition5 has been officially cancelled. Migrating our current setup and moving the current features to i5 is too difficult with the lack of developers we have for that project. I plan on working on future improvements and creating the roadmap for Ignition 4.5 as previously planned. I would like to take some current features and rewrite them with the current setup we have now.

    We still want to release features such as:

    • Ignition4 Profiles
    1. This would allow you to see how many CDLC's are in a user's collection, how many cdlcs they've created, etc 
    • An area to manage artist and creators you've hidden
    • Notify on new EOF/RSTK releases
    • Updated CDLC page (show what songs have been updated since you've added it to your collection)
    • Email Settings
    • and more features that have been requested by you!

    Merch

    With the demand of our shirts we decided to move our limited shirt into a permanent item.

    You can pick up any merch here: https://merch.customsforge.com/

    Knowledgebase

    I've launched our official knowledgebase which I plan on expanding.

    You can find these current articles:

    Discord

    We're trying to hit the goal of 7 server boosts so we can incorporate discord's new Role Icons. If you would like to support us you can do so via https://discord.gg/cf and select "Server Boost" up top on the drop-down for the server. This is entirely optional and worst case I'll grab all 7 boosts myself, but just in case people want to help 🙂

    MAGFEST

    We currently plan on attending MAGFEST 2022! I'm still unsure if I am going but I need to decide soon. However our main team will be there with changes due to COVID. More details will come out later as we need to have meetings to figure things out. 


    Wrapping up...

    I Just want to thank every single person here at CustomsForge.

    From the staff, the developers, our creators, and members. Thank everyone for supporting us! Keep rocking.

    Rocksmith 2014 Remastered user here. I believe I've done everything required, D3DX9.dll, Cherub Rock Etc. and placed the files in DLC folder. When I start up Rocksmith and try to access the songs I downloaded through Ignitor4, each song seems to load up properly but no rolling neck shows up with notes or chords? After I go through using the tuner the screen loads up with the stage and two amps/cabs but stays stuck on that screen and doesn't go any further? The guitar neck, frets, strings never show up?

    Did I do something wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated please.

    Most likely a .dll issue. You can download CustomsForge Song Manager @ https://cfmanager.com and on the settings tab when installed select "Validate D3DX9_42.DLL"

    Additionally you should see cherub rock in the "song manager" area once it scans your dlcs.

    Would be nice when you went back from an artist, that it wouldn't go back to the beginning

     

    Just released an update to help this. If you search that query will now be saved. I'm working on getting the sorting by letter in the history as well. 

    Additionally we added artist albums list on artist pages. We plan on improving this with showing links in ignition4 as well to those said results.

  15. We've launched the beta version of Artist Search and Artist Pages.

    We plan on improving this feature but this has been a highly requested feature since we moved over to I4. 

    • Record Pages (modal/full record) will show an icon next to the artist that will lead you to the artist page. 
    • The artist pages show the most popular CDLC, a list of all CDLC, and the latest releases. We plan on adding a list of albums each available artist has.
    • Artist Search will be getting Search by the beginning of the letter in the future, additionally with more filters.
    • All pages are subject to redesign and improvements.

    This feature is available via the "search" menu. Any problems, questions/etc please use #artistpages-feedback in discord for now. 

     

  16.  

    We are still actively working on improving CustomsForge. I've had a crazy last month with real life issues but I am committed to helping improve CustomsForge & our Rocksmith scene altogether. Behind the scenes we are constantly improving CustomsForge all around.

    I had an idea not too long ago and @Ffio brought it to life already. We are testing a new program called RSDiagnostics. This program will be a simple exe that can launch and output a log, giving us a dump of information to help you resolve simple to some advanced issues. We will be beta testing this soon.

    Another thing behind the scenes is our developers @mithleshjs and @Zach4531 are rewriting Ignition into React. I'm very excited about this because we are no longer using datatables. We are using a new method to draw the table and it is much faster/responsive with more features. I'm excited and hope we can provide more info in the future.

    Other things we are working on in the improvement of CustomsForge Song Manger. We may have a redesign coming in the future. I'm still working out the details. I was super impressed when I received my VR headset and started using customs for beatsaber. The software they have (ModAssistant) was inspiring and we hope to update CFSM to be as user friendly as their project. We are always striving to make our tools easier for beginners and advanced users. 

    Additionally, in the works we have our newsletter coming back, our first youtube video, and more. Because I was gone for a month I still need to work on these two and get the teams up to date, but I hope to have more news on our youtube channel and newsletter within a couple of weeks. 

    As always you can follow this channel and our links in #info for the latest information. Thanks for using CF \m/

    So sorry for your loss fella

    I can relate to what what you are going through, my wife, soulmate and partner in crime of 30 years lost her battle with cancer a few weeks ago, hence my absence from the site over christmas and into the new year, been a tough few months I can tell you.

    Parents are so underrated, we take them for granted yet owe them so much, we inherit so many traits (some good some not so much) from them, as you have said yourself they were and will always be proud of what you have accomplished here and in the other aspects of your life.
     You are always going to have the memories of your time with them, the fond ones from yesteryear will soon be front and centre buddy.
    Hang in there, with time loss will get easier I tell myself that often to try and will it to be so 😢 
     

    I'm so sorry for your loss, thank you for this post. We will both continue to push forward as hard as it may be. ❤️

    Thank you guys, and especially this post. My parents were really proud of what I've done here at CustomsForge and I always talked about it when I saw them.
