I don't think there's a limit, I've had 3k before. So you should be fine, It just takes forever to load.

lyrics are a bit meh, bass isn't too bad tho. I need to stop just strumming the chords and try to play it properly. Stuff like this is a pain in rs lol.

You can convert power tab files (ptb) to the eof compatible .gp5 with the free program tux guitar https://sourceforge.net/projects/tuxguitar/

Re-running the mac patch should sort it. https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/33889-how-to-add-custom-songs-on-mac/&do=findComment&comment=371300 If you need help try asking in the mac-os channel in the cf discord, since I don't have a mac and can' t be much help.

Someone on facebook managed to fix this issue by changing the display resolution of rocksmith (as the update had changed it?) It seems to be a fairly rare issue with only a handful of people experiencing this and we're not too sure what is causing it yet.

The servers should still work fine. If you don't log in I think you might also get the generic "online servers not available" message too, though idk for sure. Given how old the game is you'll probably have to make an account on the ubisoft website and then login to rocksmith with that, rather than creating one through the game. You can bypass logging in by pressing escape and you pretty much just lose the score attack/guitarcade leaderboards. The key might auto activate? I can't remember putting one in but it was a good while ago since I bought it.

Full difficulty lower speed would probably be the better option, otherwise you'd have to learn each section a dozen times and if you try to play along to the song outside of rocksmith before fully learning the section it'd sound weird. I can't learn songs very well through rocksmith though and I think most people just sightread from it, so using tabs might be a better idea. Otherwise, riff repeater and master mode will probably help.

You have a (1) on the end of the filename so it is still using the old one. Run this, it'll install the dll properly for you. https://ignition4.customsforge.com/tools/CDLCEnabler

It's likely to be stored in the profile save data with everything else. Steam cloud sync should sort it out, if not I think it's located somewhere like this "Steam\userdata\132945647\221680\remote". I think the first set of numbers are your steam profile ID so your mostly looking for the second set.

Select the song/s you want to pitch shift, then under custom mods select the "Pitch Shifter" option and it'll create a second pitch shifted copy of the song. I can't recommend the force E standard option as it'll sound incorrect in-game but it won't harm detection. I'd only use the "preserve stats" option while also using the "overwrite file" one just to be safe against crashes. If the song has the guitar and bass in a different tuning the pitch shifting for the bass will be wrong. If the song is bass only it will set the tuning to E standard/Drop D but won't add a pitch shift pedal. So it can be a bit dodgy at times.

Octaves bass 201 confirmed. I feel it's a pretty standard technique though, depending on what genres you play. Given how slides 201 is listed as intermediate it'd probably be fair to assume the same for this too but I doubt the rs lessons follow the championship rating system lol. Other than that though the main tricky part of octaves is mostly the speed and I don't feel these are too fast but they might take some practice. Most of the first things tried to learn on bass were octave based though so I'm probably biased.

The Min note length setting is in preferences (F11) (file/preferences/preferences) if you want to adjust it it. It's giving you the error since they're too close but isn't actually changing their position, so you can ignore it if you want. It mostly applies to note tails to stop them from overlapping/touching the next note.

Think it's been dead since we changed to the new site. Its missing /index.php in the url so it should send you here. I don't think it's something I can fix myself though. https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/1529-latest-eof-releases-9-26-2020/ The link to the website works on the sub-forum and the one under the tools dropdown does too and from there you can download a version of eof with the hotfix already applied. https://ignition4.customsforge.com/eof

For mac I think you need to re-apply the patch instead. https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/33889-how-to-add-custom-songs-on-mac/&do=findComment&comment=371300 Your best bet would probably be to try asking in the #mac-os channel though since I'm not to familiar with the process and it's a bit more involved than on windows. https://discord.com/invite/cf

You need to update the dll file to be able to play cdlc on the new update. This'll install it for ya. https://ignition4.customsforge.com/tools/CDLCEnabler

Assuming the bars for both tabs all line up you should be able to import it into another track in eof, save it and rebuild it. You'll have to unpack the psarc with the toolkit and import it into eof first though.

Assuming you mean cdlc for this. Update/re-install the dll on pc or re-run the patch if you're on mac. https://ignition4.customsforge.com/tools/CDLCEnabler https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/901-how-to-use-custom-dlcs-in-rs2014-remastered/ If you can't play dlc, double check they're installed in steam and show up in the dlc folder. If not, verify the integrity of your game files and try un installing/re installing the affected dlc.

rs mods and rocksniffer are also back up and running again so pretty much everything's been fixed by now. https://github.com/Lovrom8/RSMods/releases https://github.com/kokolihapihvi/RockSniffer/releases

Metallica for fun Pretty nice stuff oof

How to transcribe songs. Have a thing on how I transcribe songs, there used to be a few guides on this before but they’ve seemed to disappear over the years so here’s the tools I use and my general process. First off I’d recommend these to get you started. https://www.justinguitar.com/classes/transcribing https://www.justinguitar.com/classes/ear-training Giving these a read might also be helpful for the general info they provide on basic theory but you don't need to know too much to start out other than note durations, bpm and basic time signatures. https://static.guitar-pro.com/gp8/manual/Guitar-Pro-8-user-guide.pdf https://www.songsterr.com/blog/musical-note-durations/ https://www.songsterr.com/blog/time-signature-and-meter/ The best thing you can do is just to give it a try and get started. If you’re reading this, stop putting it off and get on with it. Find a song ya like, start jamming out and write down how to play it. I thought this process was more difficult than it was at first and put off learning this for a while but once you get started you can learn your favorite songs without waiting for others to tab them first and you can pretty much play any song you want (guitar or not). From there you’ll also be able to easily spot and fix errors in other peoples tabs allowing for your charts to generally be more accurate and in general you’ll start to listen to music differently and be able to notice more details you might've missed. I can’t be too specific with how to actually tab things since the programs differ a fair bit but in general you’ll loop + slow a section and then go note by note comparing what you’re playing against the audio until you get it to match. Then once you think you’ve got it right you write it down in your tab program of choice and double check it. Sometimes before starting on a song I’ll just loop the whole thing and improv to try to figure out some parts before starting to kinda get a feel for the song and get the scale down. It’s also just fun to jam out before starting the grind. When starting out use any references you can find to help you, other tabs, covers, live videos, midi files and sheet music can all come in handy when starting out. I used to only tab songs off other peoples covers at first for a good while. Tab software. Guitar Pro 8 is pretty nice since you can sync the tab to the audio in there and bypass eof at the transcription stage. From there you can bake the bpm changes into the tab, export a midi and import that into eof to get the beatmap. After that Ctrl + Z to clean up the tab, export as gp5 and then import that into eof. It's got some handy eq features but while it is lacking in comparison to transcribe overall it's pretty good. Tux guitar is fine too, but unless you use a specific build it doesn’t support slide out/ins or legato slides which can be a bit of a pain and I don’t like the interface. You can always fix these later in eof but it’s just extra work. If you wanna go old school there’s nothing wrong with using notepad and ASCII for starting out since you can always port it into guitar pro later or stick it straight into eof. Tonelib jam and gpa are a bit of a pain and aren't really designed for making tabs so I can't recommend them for actually writing stuff but might have other uses. Tuning. In most cases you’ll just have to pick between drop or standard tuning. Some artists will just use one or the other and you can use their other songs as a reference to kinda guess their tuning once you’re used to their style. If you can find a live video you can probably just use that as reference, it’s fairly easy to see if it’s in drop or standard by looking at how they play power chords on the lowest string. If you’re really stuck you can look at other peoples covers on youtube too, which I’d also recommend for starting out as they can give you a useful visual to work off without having to deal with the live camera moving constantly. Once you’ve figured out if it’s drop or standard you’ve gotta figure out the lowest note. Once you think you’ve got it listen to the whole song and double check. You don’t wanna have to re-tab the whole song halfway in. For non-guitar stuff you can pretty much use any tuning you feel works well since you aren't tied to artist accuracy for the tuning. For example, this song (tab) I had to use double drop D on a 7 string with the B tuned up to C because of the piano chords. Sure it'd be playable in B standard but a major pain in the ass and you'd never be able to make it sound good while actually playing it. In most cases for non-guitar stuff E or B standard will probably do fine but it all depends on the song. Feel free to experiment with open, capo or just mad tunings. Other useful software (probably windows only) EOF: You’ve probably already got this one but I like it for finding bpm. The estimate bpm feature works pretty well and for the few songs it doesn’t work on you can still use the beat markers/metronome to help figure it out manually. It’s also really handy for checking note durations/timings and its slow down audio feature is sometimes all I need to transcribe a song. Also the Alt + P, Alt + I hotkeys for phase cancellation and center isolation are pretty handy. Anthemscore: I can’t really recommend this one as it only really works for fairly simple piano/orchestral/acoustic stuff. Great for clean parts or if you get stuck on chords though. When it does work it really works well and you can pretty much just copy the notes from that into guitar pro and re-transcribe it from midi to a playable song. The beatmap/bpm it generates is always ass and you can’t export a decent midi but this allows you to fix the tab as you go along. The spectrogram is also fairly handy, but to me it's just a nice bonus and not used too much. For stuff like game/anime ost it’s pretty good though and a real help, you just need a pc with a decent amount of ram or to only use it on small sections that you get stuck on or it’ll complain. Songs like this’ll work fairly well, but it’s not too great for bass. https://youtu.be/mAjIfxbofkE https://youtu.be/zbTxOHUZtPU https://youtu.be/4_mr8Lz3LUg https://youtu.be/dHyEceHbivE https://youtu.be/tzv3vFFVfTg Transcribe: In most cases all I use to transcribe a song is this, EOF and guitar pro. It’s got a looping feature, a bunch of eq presets, pitch shifting options, slow down feature, panning and note/chord guess feature. There’s a few other features but these are the ones I mostly use. I’ll loop a section, use the note guess and work off there. If I’m doing bass I’ll eq out everything except the bass and go from there. You can do most of this in audacity too but this is way more convenient so I’d easily recommend this. Spleeter GUI: I use this since I couldn't figure out the standard spleeter cli. It's a neural network based audio splitter for separating audio tracks. The results aren’t too great and they take quite a while to generate but in some rare cases it’s better than eq. Since it takes so long to generate I barely ever use it but it might be handy in certain cases. Conclusion. So yea I guess that’s it, get out there and tab some stuff. Any other useful software or tips LMK.

You can use cfsm to adjust the loudness of the song/tones. https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/66865-volumes-on-rocksmith-2014-remastered-anomalous/#comment-367696 It's a bit of fiddling but you can also adjust the mixer in-game through the pause menu if you don't wanna mess with the files directly.

In tux guitar/guitar pro you can press shift + up (up on the arrow keys) to transpose notes up/down a string keeping the same pitch. I don't think eof has a way to do it while keeping the pitch, it just moves it up a string and keeps the same fret value.

You need to enter the code "JustInCaseWeNeedIt" to get access to the beta branch, it's not listed by default. You don't need to use the beta anymore tho since the tools have now been updated. Run this to stop the songs freezing before they load. https://ignition4.customsforge.com/tools/CDLCEnabler it's not an new check they added in this update it's always been a thing which is why we use the modified dll to load custom songs. If you don't have the dll it'll just freeze before loading the song.

Click the windows V1 button on the right to open the download page You can also download from this button here. I'd also recommend viewing the ignition4 guide here.

If they don't show up in cfsm they aren't gonna show up in game either, most likely because they've been deleted/moved somehow. Possibly from uninstalling/re-installing the game. Check the contents of your dlc folder to see if the custom songs are still in there and make sure you've got the cherub rock dlc installed since it's needed for them to show up in game. You might have to redownload all your custom songs again. https://ignition4.customsforge.com/user/collectedcdlc
