  1. So, i came across a few unclaimed DLC codes today and thought this might be a good a place as any to try and give them away. 

     

    - Lord of the Rings Online: Steely Dawn Starter Pack

    - Gotham City Impostors: Professional Kit

     

    So if anyone wants em, lemme know.

     

    Also, General game giveaway / trading thread. Want something? Want to get rid of something? post in here and you might get lucky.

     

    No guarantees though.

  2. If you're looking for normal folks you're in the wrong place here mate. 

     

    With over 6000 songs and more being added every day we probably got a load you'd like.

     

    Anyway, howdy and dont feel too shy to drop by in the chat. That will determine your future here.

  3. Like 90% of the people bitch about Robben now because he actually admitted in an interview he dove once. What those foreign papers dont meantion is that, that was at the end of the first half (IIRC) NOT the fall he got the penalty for. You could clearly see the opponents foot got in the way.

     

    He didnt dove once against costa rica. Damn one time he got double swiped by two guys.

  4. All very valid questons, and i can see why you ask them.

     

    To be fair, im surprised no one else has asked these before.

     

    I really think we should start something here with all these questions. We could even call it Frequently Asked questions, or FAQ for short.

     

    Dammit im brilliant.

  5. I know very little about soccer, so could someone explain to me how the US wasn't offside on that second goal?

    I looked up the video of it since i didnt see the match itself, but it appears that at the moment of passing the ball, the player from the USA was behind the player from Portugal. Ever so slightly. Pretty hard to see even. 

  6. I dont know if this has been fixed but last i heard was even if you bought the DLC the latest DLC songs would still show up lock. However there would be a 2nd unlocked version that you could play

     

    The locked version is just their version of advertising the latest song.

     

    This might have been fixed though so i dunno. 

     

    Otherwise you might just need to redownload them because you deleted them by accident.

  7. Few things.

     

    First of all, with me, the default steam install folder (where the games also went) was a temp folder. Fuck all clue why but thats what it was. Anyway, when you run CCleaner or something like that and it clears your temp. everything is gone.

     

    Now, for the losing of CDLC, you are sure that the CDLC are actually in the dlc folder and the .dll file is back? Since its a fresh install it wouldnt be there by default.

  8.  

    Yeah - sections defintiely help.

     

    The one reason I do like DD is that it shows me the harder parts of the song - I usually ramp up the difficulty to about 80%, then let DD take it from there.

     

    Here's the issue with the DDC tool, and one that is probably very difficult to address:

     

    It has no concept of the song structure - it can only make educated guesses about which notes to add in and when, and usually follows just breaking down on the 1/4, 8th, 16th note barriers.  This is often not accurate, and results in incorrect fingering as well.

     

    Perfect example (that I intend to address in an update) is Holy Wars on bass.  In the main opening riff, the full pattern is:

     

    A|-5-h7--------------10-p7--------------------------|E|--------0--0--0-----------0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|

    but the emphasis in DDC is on the 5 and 10 - DDC  doesn't know that that sounds "wrong" when ramping up.... or at least to my ears it does.

     

    I've also encountered situations, where EOF/DDC has no clue where to place the fret markers - the algorithm seems to be "anchor at the lowest finger for this measure"... which in general is ok, but if it's a major scale, you should anchor the root with your middle finger, not your index.

     

    My point in all this is while I love the fact that we all are pumping out CDLC, we also need to be mindful that we are providing teaching tools for others to learn, and need to be careful of the output of automated tools that don't always understand the song structure.  I am guilty of this as well, and I am fixing the ones I have already made :)

     

    That being said, if you ALREADY know how to play fairly well (understanding scales/modes/positions/etc), then Rocksmith really just becomes more of an animated score/tab sheet that is just fun to play.

     

     

    TL;DR

     

    In all honesty, as a pretty beginner still, i prefer slowing it down instead of missing notes. Since like you said, you learn incorrect fingering.

    Dont know if this has been said yet, cant be arsed to read the whole thread, but if you are on pc its pretty easy to get your old save back.

     

    Just go to where the save file is located, Which should be Steam / steamuser / steam ID number / 221680

     

    221680 is the game ID number, just right click on it and select 'set back previous version'  Or something along those lines. You should get a popup box with dates / times. Just select which one you want and BOOM, old save is back.

     

    Dont know if such a trick is possible on xbox / ps. Probably not.
