  1. I'm getting bored of playing the same songs in my library. I've kinda learnt them, but there are limitations to my sight reading. I got 91% on Through the Fire and Flames lead. 87% on For The Love of God lead. I'm looking for new songs to play. And maybe to be introduced to some bands or game soundtracks. 

    But the more melodic sort of leads I'm looking for are songs like those, but also something like, Jazz. I don't mind Rhythms being inbetween. I'll try to make examples of songs I enjoy playing.

    Persona - Jolly Roger

    Persona 5 Royal - Ideal and Real

    Persona 5 - When Mother Was There

    Steve Vai - Building The Church, Crying Machine.

    Sylosis - every song ever (But there's not a CDLC for every song so far, I've played every song available)

    Plini - most songs, depends on complexity. I enjoy playing Selenium forest. 

    Architects - most songs. I love the more lead oriented ones, or the rhythms that feel melodic. Such as Castles in the Sky, or Doomsday, or Gravedigger. 

    Scale The Summit - Most songs, but mainly something like City in the Sky.

    Death - Misanthrope, Without Judgement, 

    I can also tolerate anime songs, like Chase from the JoJo part 4 soundtrack, or that uh, one song in Stardust Crusaders? Can't remember the name off the top of my head. But no super ayaya like Hatsune Miku. There's very few vocaloid songs I can actually tolerate. 

     

    Hard to list all songs and bands because there's many with good examples, but there's quite a few. I prefer instrumentals and especially non-vocal songs, but I can tolerate them. I like moving around the fretboard a lot, those are just tons of fun. Unless it's Fountainhead Obscura, then monkaW, sell all my guitars. I'd describe myself as a normal guitarist I guess. I got all the basics of everything, can play most solos and lead arrangements. But not all. I don't really have a preferred genre, but I can't stand bad mixing which includes bass being louder than the entire song, or maybe just a CDLC issue where the tones don't work or are too loud/too quiet. 

    I'm open to all sorts of suggestions. If this sort of post isn't allowed here, remove it. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  2. I recently had to reinstall Windows on my PC because of a bug with the registry not picking up a corrupt registry key. 

    Of course I had to reinstall EOF. But there is a problem now, even with a backup of my original settings. It's really laggy, and the interface keeps flashing and not working occasionally, as in when I click somewhere, it doesn't register as a click. 

    I have no idea what the problem is. It's also begun asking me if I want to import voices from tabs? Doesn't seem normal.

     

    PC Specs should be irrelevant given how ancient this software looks. I have a Ryzen 5800x, and 32GB Ram @3600mhz 4x8GB. 

     

    Also, the latest hotfix download link is down. It gets a 404 error for me. 

  3. I don't know what to do? I've not gotten any answers from anyone. When Rocksmith 2014 launches, it takes 2 minutes for some reason because of a white screen start up. When I'm in game though, if I alt tab, it white screens, remains windowed (despite formerly being fullscreen), and refuses to resume back to the normal screen. I have an RTX 3070 and a Ryzen 5800X, 32 GB RAM (4x8 GB @3600Mhz) running on a Samsung 970 Evo Plus. This shouldn't be happening. 

    I have no idea how to fix it. I used to have this issue on my old PC, before I got this new one, and I can't remember how I fixed it. All the solutions I could find didn't work properly. 

    RTSK is bloatware as far as I'm aware, because it doesn't actually modify the game. 

    It's not the compatability mode.

    It's not the audio settings.

    I tried running it in Windowed mode, but for some reason, it has the window bar at the top, which triggers my OCD so hard.

  4. Good to hear you are getting better results.

     

    Those EOF project files that you posted above still have some conflicting song information elements.  To be sure that the toolkit does not have some kind of underlying bug, could you please post a screenshots of your:

     

    1) toolkit>General Config settings

    2) toolkit>CDLC Creator (as it looked before you pressed Generate to create the CDLC)

     

    Thanks

     

    Put both together, not sure if you wanted the template or not for CDLC Creator:

    The red bits are just anonymity. For some reason my file explorer displays my full name. 

     

    The tones aren't an issue now for some reason? I reckon I used the wrong settings for the tones before. It's fine now.

    Removing ghost notes fixed the issues, but it isn't up to the quality of an ODLC.

    Hmm, I actually don't think ghost notes are used on slides in odlc.  It's likely the tab author was trying to mimic a delay effect by using them.

    From my understanding slide guitars use delay a lot to help with sustains.

    (which might help with one of your tones since there is a very, very slight delay in that part of the song.)

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     

    Um, you could change the ghost notes to normal notes and mark it with the crazy status:

    VWqCtJR.png

    (crazy status shouldn't do anything more in this case (I think :unsure: ), but it'll help you differentiate between what's played and not when viewing in eof.)

    (btw, some of your slide notes weren't properly marked as 'linknext' (ex. 13 note in pic above) which also might be causing the issue too.)

     

    Sometimes, slides without ghost notes are marked as ignore which might help too.

    I did a dumb dumb. I didn't realize there were other versions of the tab and I heavily edited an old version. 

     

    So, I'm trying the removing ghost notes and adding linktext. I don't know how to use crazy status? It feels like I'm learning another language. 

     

    OH MY DOG, you are a legend. Thank you. Linktext was the exact thing I was looking for to get those sustained slides. It also fixed some of the bugs, though not all of them it appears. The thing I don't understand about the link text is, does it connect the previous note or the note after? Say those chords at the beginning of the song. If I link text it on the 8--9 chord, would that make the slide, or does it have to be the chord at the end of the slide? I am still sorta confused about that. 

     

     

    Edit: I figured it out. It's the note before. WORKED PERFECTLY. The song is actually playable, and the solo is perfect. Thanks. Although I'm left wondering something. How do I add "Linktext" in a tab? I don't really want to be editing every individual note for a tab, each time I import it. Is there an easier way?

     

    Also, there is another bug that I had with earlier CDLCs as well as this one. Bends were not keeping their state. A full step bend that is sustained and doesn't move (As it is in the tab) for some reason would cut off in the next measure. It's a weird bug. Sometimes a chord with bends would disappear completely. 

  6. Peeking into your CDLC lead arrangement xml, we see:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <song version="7">
      <!-- CST v2.9.2.1-37451264 -->
      <!-- DDC by CDLC author -->
      <!-- EOF v1.8RC12 (2-20-2019) -->
      <title />
      <arrangement>PART REAL_GUITAR</arrangement>
      <part>1</part>
      <offset>0</offset>
      <centOffset>0</centOffset>
      <songLength>221.522</songLength>
      <startBeat>0</startBeat>
      <averageTempo>89.117</averageTempo>
      <tuning string0="0" string1="0" string2="0" string3="0" string4="0" string5="0" />
      <capo>0</capo>
      <artistName />
      <artistNameSort />
      <albumName />
      <albumYear />
      <crowdSpeed>1</crowdSpeed>
    

    The EOF version you are using (<!-- EOF v1.8RC12 (2-20-2019) -->) is outdated.  Should be 10-30-2019 or later.  Regenerate your EOF project files with the latest version.

     

    Looks like SlickWilly could be onto something (<!-- DDC by CDLC author -->).  Try using the toolkit to create DDC.  If the problem you are seeing goes away with the toolkit generated DDC then you know that it is an issue with your custom DDC. 

     

    Use the toolkit CDLC Creator to Generate the CDLC, and allow the toolkit to update the Arrangement ID when asked to fully populate these elements:

    <artistName />

    <artistNameSort />

    <albumName />

    <albumYear />

     

    Looks like you changed the toolkit default song and tone volumes.  This could effect the tone issue you are having.

    It is up to date? I installed the latest hot fix just now. But the only version of EOF available is 1.8 RC12. 

    Anyway, I did that, and used the track with the ghost notes. Same problem. Invisible notes, missing notes. 

     

    What I Tried:

    - Updated EOF with the latest hotfix

    - Updated Toolkit (Again because there was another update)

    - Generating it without DDC (But it always does for some reason, despite it not being marked in configuration. I haven't made seperate tracks in EOF for it)

     

     

    I tried moving the notes a tiny bit (To fix some sync issues that were there anyway) then generating the file with this new XML. Same bug strangely? So it really could be anything at this point. 

     

     

    I dunno. Maybe I'm missing something? Here's the EOF files (And GHOST NOTE version of the tab) if you don't mind taking a look thanks.

  7. Once you are sure you have the latest versions of all the tools, plz come back for more abuse.  ;)

    Got the latest versions. Same issue.

    Top image, sustains have disappeared

    Bottom, a note is to be played is not there. There's no ghost notes there in the tab.

     

    My last resort is going to be removing ghost notes. Which sucks because now you can't tell what notes are to be played and sustained or not. 

     

    Edit: Crap. Spoiled the song. Oh well. I'm updating Scar Tissue. The old version on the database was abandoned

     

    Edit 2: I guess another question I could ask is, since Ghost Notes are one of the things breaking it. Is there a way to make a smooth slide?  Like Official DLC quality where the slide isn't broken by another note and it is simply sustained? 

  8. It's as the title says. Now I can't remember what version of the Toolkit I had, because when I tried to update it to fix the issue, it deleted itself because I had Rocksmith running. I wish I was joking, but it literally did. And I'm calling it a night before I bother to do anything with it (Update or use an older version). Because there's a bigger problem. 

     

    To sum up what I mean by breaking notes, it's when notes are invisible, or are cutting off, or just not showing at all. (There's also a slide bug where I have a strangely shaped chord not sliding to the next note). The invisible notes, they are a really annoying bug because this CDLC I am currently working on, that isn't gonna see a release until this is fixed, is reliant on multiple slides. The slides have max, 3 notes to slide to, and they cut off.

    But that is hardly the worst thing. Even those where it slides to one note, if the same note is played after that, it is randomly invisible but the sustain is there. The note is gone.

     

    There's some really bizarre bugs, I'll post some screenshots later. It's been happening to a lot of my CDLC, but not as bad as I've seen it with this WIP one. And I don't think it's EOF, The reason I don't think it's EOF is because all the notes appear there. The notes are fine, they have sustains, they are all there. Showing as I wrote it in the tab. 

     

    In case it's important, I am using Guitar Pro 7 to add finishing touches to my tabs. 

     

    Thanks in advance.

  9.  

    The submit page linked me to a page linking me to the "PC Enabled RS 2014 CLDC" Category. And for some reason I can't even use that. It says "Please use Ignition." 

     

    Any ideas on how I can submit something?

    Having the same issue. It's been a few days it seems and it still hasn't fixed up!

    Please respond! I have several I want to get up before Halloween. 

     

    I managed to finally submit something. Just keep trying. I went to the forums and tried to submit from there, and it worked some how.

  10.  

    Where do I ignore them, and will the notes disappear? 

     

    In EOF, in the edit note window, or Ctrl+Shift+I. The notes will still be there, they just don't count toward the total accuracy even if you miss them.

    Notes on the 23rd and 24th frets are ignored automatically, but since the Remastered update, if they are not set as ignored they will mess up the mastery rating.

     

    Thanks, I'll keep that mind in the next time I make a CDLC. I hope there's a permanent fix for it though. 

  11. This appears to have only happened recently. I created the CDLC 'Dreaming (Ys I)' and noticed in my testing that the accuracy was completely different to the mastery despite not using riff repeater at all. 

     

    I got 94% accuracy and it would register as 92% mastery? 

     

    I have no idea, but this bug only seems to be happening recently. I will try a new version of the Custom Song Creator. My version of it was v2.8.4.0-420e01fc.

     

    It's a strange bug and I'm not 100% sure of what is the cause of this. It is unlikely to be my version of EOF, it's the same version I've been using for years, this bug has only happened recently. 

     

     

    Edit: I made a new CDLC, and same issue, except the bass is the only arrangement not affected by this bug. Everything else is. I did get 100% on the bass. 

  12. It took me around 1.30 hours to solve. it turns out, Rocksmith Custom Song Toolkit wanted to read this random file in my Rocksmith folder. I never played it there, it was never there before. It was trying to get into this English(US) folder for some reason. IT wasn't letting Toolkit into it. For whatever reason. When I opened the folder that Toolkit was trying to use, I got 'Access Denied' I tried deleting this folder and nothing happened.

    In the end, and this is extremely game breaking (CDLC) I had to reinstall Rocksmith 2014 onto another drive because I cannot delete this damn folder. Reinstalling Rocksmith 2014 fixed it, because the template folder was reinstalled and hopefully fixed. 

     

    If I could suggest something to improve toolkit. Create backup folders for these folders that are used when generating CDLC. This was just a huge pain in the ass, the only way to fix it was like I said, reinstalling the game elsewhere. It was just because of one folder. 

  13. @SuperSonic  Plz upgrade to latest beta/test version of toolkit first.

     

    In the original EOF project files you PM, the tuning is shown as:

    <tuning string5="-9" string4="-9" string3="-10" string2="-10" string1="0" string0="-3"/>
    

    The toolkit changes this to:

    <tuning string5="-3" string4="0" string3="-10" string2="-10" string1="-9" string0="-9"/> aka DbAEADG
    

    Now while in the toolkit 'Creator, Edit or Confirm Tuning' popup, create your new tuning name 'C#AEADG' and enter the tuning as '-3 0 2 2 3 3'.  Be sure to check the box 'Add as new Tuning' then click OK.  Then as @@firekorn suggested change the frequency to 220 Hz.  Finally generate your CDLC.   This worked for me.

    Strange. Making the new tuning fixed it. I just put in 'Custom Tuning' and it worked. Even after changing the frequency. I don't know if my Toolkit was outdated, because my SSD recently died with all my Rocksmith 2014 files on it. I downloaded the latest version of the toolkit today. I did make a new tuning before, but it kept changing to some random tuning. Now I got the outcome I wanted. Thanks for fixing the issue.
