Hello there i've created quite a few CDLC songs (Mostly Four Year Strong and a few others) none of which have sections which makes the camera all wonky since the Remasted update. I no longer have the files needed to continue working on these and I would love it if someone would take the reigns and perhaps fix the issues. If you decide to do so I will upload them and give you complete credit for the work. Just thought I would throw it out there because at this point after losing all my work I don't think I will continue making CDLC for a while. Any questions just drop it here or send me a PM.
Thanks!

My songs arent separated. They are all directly in the DLC folder. But i will look through that thread

EDIT: Still nothing, same errors.

Try creating the folder manually and see if debug.log file is being created inside.

Manually created the CFM folder in Documents, then ran the program in Administrator mode. Starts to instantly Parse DLC folder still (Raw count 1304). While it was parsing I opened my CFM folder and it indeed spit a Debug file & a Settings file. After the "Parse" finishes, the application force closes still then it deletes the CFM folder i made manually with those files. :/

@@Goofiestbee, yes, it might have something to do with Windows 10. Please take a look at this topic.

Looked through that thread. It seems nothing has changed after trying to run the "Setup.exe" in Administrator mode, still crashing without any reason why after trying to parse. Still can't re-create the CFM folder as well.

I would glady if i was able. It seems as if its having trouble generating a new CFM folder now in Documents. It does what i stated above, though says "CFM Folder Deleted" in one of those pop up window notifications. Hope to get this working though. Ive been forced to use the old manager a user created a while back which counts my folder correctly etc. Not sure why im having so many problems with the official manager /: is it something to do with Windows 10? Thanks

Sorry I'll try it now & report back.

EDIT: when opening the app it instructed me to update it so I did so.

Now when I open it it doesnt ask what directory the dlc folder is in and starts to parse the folder. 

After it "Finishes" the program just closes with no indication on what happened.

@Goofiestbee  Interesting files.  So songfiles.xml, and songsinfo.xml are empty. These files do not support the XML error message you received and reported above. 

 

Please go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\Rocksmith2014" 

 

1) Is there a 'dlc' folder there? 

2) Does it contain any songs?

 

Go to My Documents and delete the 'CFM' folder.  Restart CFM, select the Rocksmith Installation Directory.  BE PATIENT and let the app parse all the songs (DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL CFM IS DONE PARSING).  Based on the debug.log, it looks like you may have been cancelling the scan of the 'dlc' folder before the program finished.  This could explain the inconsistent error messages.  Next time you get the "Error: There is an error in XML document (18222, 30)" send me your files again.   I still think it is a corrupt CDLC file.  You can use CGT program (follow my signature link below) to find corrupt CDLC.

Yes that is where all my DLC is located.

I have not canceled any scans to my knowledge but I will try deleting that folder & restarting the app.

EDIT: Yep still getting the same error. I'll try to scan for a bad CDLC using that program.

EDIT 2: Ran the CGT and it found "Eric Claptoon Cocaine" to be corrupt, so thats deleted. didn't say anything about anything else. Re-opened the Song Manager and still getting the error message

The first screen shot shows an XML error at 21696, 30.  Can you send me a link to the four files (settings.xml, songsfiles.xml, songsinfo.xml and debug.log) from your CFM folder in My Documents.  Looks like you are parsing over 7000 songs, is that about right?  Got a feeling that one of your songs is causing the issue.

I have 1364 songs in my DLC folder...nowhere to close to 7000 haha. This includes official and CDLC. Its odd because after installing 1.0.0.9 it worked the first time I opened it (saw the songs on the grid etc.) but after that first one it spits those two errors.

Heres those files you wanted: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B54Di8ApWLfzT2xocy1aVGRVYTg/view?usp=sharing

Screen shot plz.

Here you go! I get one of these 2 errors everytime I start it up now. It either gives me one or the other.

"Error: Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown" happens if there are no dlc in the selected Rocksmith Installation Directory.  I added an error check for this condition in 1.0.0.8.

 

Not sure what else you did but the latest release 1.0.0.9 seems to have fixed the problem. Didn't have to do anything else except update it & now it's showing songs. thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind. seems after closing it and re-opening it, it doesnt work anymore. Same error..sigh ><

It seems that one of the CDLC is corrupted. Try moving all CDLCs to other directory and add them to dlc/ folder by parts/chunks and restart the app to see if any part is giving you the error .

After removing all CDLC and leaving only Official ones, it's counting the songs when I scan but it isn't showing anything on the grid at all. Not sure why its doing this. Thanks for the response

Hi there, downloaded the app and upon opening it this is what i am getting:

 

Nevermind! Found it! Thanks again for the info :)

http://www.twitch.tv/rocksmithgame/b/623928419 30:29 Paul shows up and eventually (42 minutes) he talks a bit about Mobile (being held back due to licensing)

Very cool! Atleast they are hopefully still working on it. Thanks for the information, really appreciate it! :D

Which video is it talked about in? The one you posted doesnt seem to be linked to a specific video but the whole channel :P lol

Anyone hear or know anything more on this? Haven't heard much since this: http://www.theriffrepeater.com/rumour-rocksmith-2014-for-ios/

The cable was put up for pre-order on Amazon but quickly taken down back then.

Would love to see the mobile version to fruition :)

Thanks for the reply rom! Do you think it could have something to do with the monitors refresh rate? I remember having to turn them both to 59hz instead of 60 to get rid of a weird jumping task bar glitch a while ago.

Thanks for the tip about Catalyst. I knew it was there but never really messed around with it before.

Another thing to note is im using VGA & DVI for my monitors. Should i switch one to HDMI instead? Would that do anything? I hope not as my HDMI slot is reserved for my Wii U which is connected to my monitor as well.

Thanks for the reply! I use a AMD Radeon HD 7700 & im running the latest drivers. (Updated everything real good after windows 10 came out) though this problem was present in windows 8/8.1 before i switched as well. Weird because it only happens when i close Rocksmith 2014, no other game has done it

Hey there, I use dual monitors and 98% of the time I leave it on "Duplicate these displays" so it shows the same thing on both monitors. everything works fine but when I close the games sometimes one of my monitors gets all fuzzy and has these glitchy black lines going through it (This only happens after closing the game). Gets kindof annoying because the only way to get rid of it that I found was to change the display to "Extend" then back to "Duplicate", but it reoccurs after closing Rocksmith 2014 again.

Anyway to fix this? Not sure what the problem is.

If you need any more PC or monitor information let me know

Any help is appreciated. 
Thanks!

Nevermind, finally got it to work! Had to make 3 blank profiles (1 for each of the profiles I was trying to transfer) then replace the Profile ID's of the backed up ones with the fresh new profile ID's. worked fine after that! Thanks for the great Tool kit!

Not trying to hijack your post or anything but im trying to transfer my profile from one pc to the other. I downloaded the CGT and did backup on the profile(s) i want transfered to my new PC, I then tried to transfer them and they are not showing up in game...ive tried making a blank new profile and switching the Profile ID to the one my backup generated but nothing. the only time i got the names to show up is when i typed in the Profile ID for the NEW profile i made. the names showed up but when i click on them it just creates a new profile and starts the tutorial. If I just transfer the profiles over and dont change the Profile ID nothing shows up in game. ><

What am I doing wrong here? probly something stupid im overlooking. Would really appreciate it. Thanks!

When you hear that pop, closely look at the wires located in the back of the amp and see if theres a spark coming off of a wire back there. Maybe it's drawing too much power to the amp for how small the wires are? Not sure what amp your using etc. but I remember having this problem a while back...ended up having to replace the 2 wires in the back with thicker ones and it seemed to have helped

Sadly there isn't... :/ You can turn down the Songs volume and increase your guitar volume but theres no way to mute a specific part of a track. (So you can't mute the lead guitar and still hear the bass, vocals, rhythm etc. you can only turn down the WHOLE songs volume) Some people that make customs however have seperate versions you can download that leave these parts out.

I started tabbing out the song in Guitar Pro and learned alot so far.

Here is the Guitar Pro 6 file I am currently working on/with: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B54Di8ApWLfzS2xabjJFaExHMFE/view?usp=sharing

Would someone like to take a crack at the the rest of the song or atleast the chorus for me? 

I could then go over it and see what you did to help me learn for future reference.

Figured this was a cool song and might not be that hard to convert to Guitar Pro/Rocksmith CDLC. 

I am using this video of Marty Shwartz to get the notes i've been using in this Guitar Pro Tab: 

Got stuck on the trying to do the chorus cause im just starting to get used to tabbing with these programs :/

Any help would be greatly appreciated :) , or if we could turn this into a collaberative project that would be cool! Thanks :D

F1 will bring up the help that come with almost any software if they respect the convention when it comes to hotkey.

 

Also yes i was serious because i don't think you'll see many videos of people actually doing transcription because it's something that you do with your ear and guts and that at first you'll get wrong 50% of the time without even noticing it at first.

 

Having knowledge in music theory will help you for using GP, if you need you can also use any tools you want (paper/EOF/any DAW) and even a combination if you feel like it.

 

You didn't bring up any of your background in music related to transcription or what did you try to do exactly so i throw general information to what might help you use GP more efficiently.

 

Also keep in mind that GP isn't made as a transcription software but a tabbing one. It won't help you to figure out note/tempo/rhythm or anything else, it's just a place to enter what you found by yourself.

Thanks. Im starting to find my way around Guitar Pro 6 pretty good...what im trying to do is tab out songs which don't have guitar pro files so it is then easier for me to import them into Rocksmith, most of the songs i am attempting there are How-To-Play videos that im using or just normal Tabs..so not from scratch if thats what you were thinking. :P. I dont like using EoF that much and find this interface a little cleaner :)

Few things, how do I make a Sustain in Guitar Pro 6? Also how do I do Fret Hand muted notes/chords?

that would really help alot. They must be named something else that im just not familiar with. 

Thanks, really do appreciate the help guys.  :)

If you already understand notation but don't know how to enter notes into the program, just press F1.  It brings up a very useful help guide.  I bet the answer to every question you got is in that guide.

Thanks buddy, i'll check that out now :)
