Are you using Windows 7?

The XML Combiner is for combining different songs together so that you play them one after another.

I haven't tried combining arrangements from different customs of the same song myself, but I suppose one way to do it would be to import both PSARCs separately into DLC Builder, then open them in EOF and copy the notes from one into the other.

I've been using RipX DeepRemix for a while now and it is really useful for someone with bananas in their ears like myself.

I find it that it makes figuring out bass parts a lot easier, and the piano keyboard at the side is super useful for determining the pitches of notes.

I've tried spleeter exactly once, with a J-Pop song I've got in the works and its separated bass sounds like muffled low notes whereas in RipX it sounds like the actual bass.

It also displays chord guesses when the guitar layer is selected and automatically figures out the tempo/measures.

is it possible to use this to overwrite the default font with one that scales better in 4k?

I don't know if that's possible, but it would require some modding in addition that this tool doesn't do.

The audio files are in songs.psarc for whatever reason.

Java is needed to run the PS3 encrypt/decrypt tool included with the Toolkit. I've never used it so I don't know if it needs a specific version.

DLC Builder only supports Wwise versions 2019 or 2021.

For CDLC creation there's no need to get the GUI version of Wwise to work, just the CLI is needed.

I don't see a Linux version on that site. Also, the macOS port is actually just the Windows version running on Wine.

@ someotherbruce

I made a Linux build of DLC Builder. Could you give it a try?

I was able to build a working CDLC on my Mint VM.

There may be issues with the automatic Wwise conversion. If the Wwise console path is left empty, it will try to find it from "~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Audiokinetic".

I cheated a bit and just copied the Wwise installation from my Windows machine and then installed the vc redist files from the prerequisites folder from the archive from https://ignition4.customsforge.com/cfsm/wwise and that was enough to get it working.

Creating a Linux version of DLC Builder is possible, since most of it is cross-platform. The automatic Wwise conversion would need a new implementation via Wine though.

I haven't provided a Linux version since I assumed that practically no-one would use it (though I think practically no-one uses the mac version either ) .

I've uploaded a new version, which is probably the last one since the program I've been working on, DLC Builder (an alternative to the Toolkit's CDLC Creator tab) contains most of DDC Improver's functionality.

It's probably got something to do with the equalizer settings. With just an amp with max bass and no mid/treble gives a red color.

I can't see your attachments, but that sounds like the bug that should be fixed in the next version.

Give this build a try and see if it fixes it.

Invisible notes are caused by an incorrect linknext status on the previous note on the same string.

Looking at the XML, there are two such notes in the lead arrangement at 37.672 and 113.451.

@@nick_beat One should install the .NET version that matches the Windows version. DDC Improver itself should work the same on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, though I've only tested it on 64-bit Windows 10.

And how do I produce a Rocksmith 2014 XML file in EOF? I thought I can only select "Rocksmith", but not the version.

File -> Preferences -> Import/Export

Check "Save separate Rocksmith 2 files".

Additionally, the XML file in the project files (PART REAL_GUITAR) is for Rocksmith 1, not Rocksmith 2014.

The exception originates in GetWwisePath, so it seems to be finding more than one 32-bit WwiseCLI.exe in the Wwise path.

Based on the error message, did you check the obvious thing: that the file ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll is in the Toolkit directory and not being blocked by Windows or some anti-virus software?

v3.0 has been released.

The place where the program configuration and logs are stored has been changed, so your settings will be reset to defaults when updating from v2.2. You may also delete the logs directory from the program folder when updating.

The most prominent new feature is "Quick Remove DD", which I added since using the DDC tab in the Toolkit to remove DD always felt cumbersome to me.

As an example, removing DD from all three arrangements from the AC/DC Powerage Full Album custom:

With the Toolkit's DDC tab: ~1 min 45 sec

With "Quick Remove DD": ~1 sec

That's a bug in DDC that can happen if you begin a handshape that has both chords and notes on a note instead of a chord. A workaround is start the handshape at the first chord.

I've got the file. I'll reupload it after I do some fixes to it.

Uploaded version 2.2 which has a few new (minor) features.

The Windows version now uses the new .NET Core 3.0 so you will need to have that installed.

New Features:

- "so" (Slide Out) custom event

When placed on a chord that has an unpitched slide out, the program generates an empty handshape near the end of the slide.

Some oDLC, e.g. "Tie Your Mother Down", does use the full chord panel of the same chord inside the same handshape. Unfortunately there's currently no way of doing that in CDLC.

For the font you'll need to use my font generator.

Uploaded version 1.1 with the following changes:

• Made the program localizable and added Japanese and Finnish translations
• Added the possibility to open .txt files in which case the program will generate a font from all the unique characters in the file
• Added "Spacing Adjustment" setting to the advanced options. Lower this value if you think the characters are too far apart (although you won't know until you try the font in game)
• Added option to use a dark theme
