happy birthday! 

Is this a pure windows pc? because I got the same problem on my mac when running RS2014 on a virtual machine (parallels) with windows 8.1

 

in OSX mode on this mac everything works fine for RS2014,  but I would like to run it on the windows virtual machine for this should be easier for me to stream to twitch tv. because in OSX I have sound issues when streaming to twitch...

The Windows builds I post have oggCat capability and probably the only obvious reason it may not be working would be a permissions problem such as if you installed EOF within one of the "Program Files" directories.

 

Error 4 when you use the re-encode option means it couldn't decode the chart audio into memory. However EOF has to do the same thing when creating the waveform graph or spectrogram, are you able to display either for that chart? It also does this when it creates the Rocksmith WAV file for a chart. If none of those other 3 things work, maybe your virtual machine doesn't have enough memory available to it or something. If they do, then I'm not really sure what the issue would be because the creation of any of those 3 things proves that EOF is able to decode the chart audio and had enough memory to do so. I'm not sure what other problems you can run into when running Windows virtualized from Mac. I also don't have Windows 8.1 to test EOF with so that's two added complications.

 

EOF is not installed in one of the program files directories, but in the download directory of my mac.

 

I don't get an error 4, but an error 6 code. And I can show the waveform graph and the spectrogram (even both at the same time). So memory is probably not the issue.

 

Also, do you have any idea how I can load mp3's without converting them first with audacity?

 

OK, good news!! I have found and fixed my two problems!! :geek:  

 

The problem seems that you really need to, when working with EOF on a windows 8.1 through parallels on a mac, make sure you put EOF (the whole shebang of files and folders  and executables) on your windows drive and not on your mac (as i did in my macs download folder). You also need to make sure that your songfolder and mp3 are located on your windows drive!! just put everything on the C-drive of your windows (preferably in the EOF folder, so you can locate everything very easily)...

 

So now, I can load mp3's without any problem, and I also can add a leading silence without any problem...

What the error code means depends on whether you're using the re-encode option. If your project path has any non ASCII characters (ie. accented or Unicode characters), the command line OGG encoder EOF uses may not be able to write the file. You can always edit the audio externally, just keep track of how many milliseconds of audio you add, you will want to re-open your EOF project, open Song>Properties and add that number of milliseconds to the "Delay" field here to sync the project to the altered audio.

Yes, I use the re-encode option, because I can not deselect this option, nor can i select the stream copy (oggcat) option.

 

But I also can not import mp3's (so I convert the mp3 with audacity to ogg) into EOF in windows (officially paid 8.1 version) running through parallels (officially paid version) om my mac, I can however import mp3's in audacity in windows on my mac, so there must be something odd going on, I just don't know what it is...

 

As for the project path, there are so far as to my knowledge no folders using non-ASCII characters, just plain standard naming like "yellow submarine" etc...

 

I already reinstalled EOF, but nothing seems to work...

 

anything else I can do or try to make EOF work properly for me? without workarounds...

Why is Wwise giving me .ogg files instead of a .wem like I need?

 

They are as stated in the tutorial video

in the default project folder, normally under: documents/WwiseProjects/"your song or file name"/.cache/windows/sfx/ , and there you should see your ".wem" files.

But the .cache folder is a hidden folder, so you might want to set your folder options to show hidden and system files.

Hi, I keep getting "could not add leading silence (error 6)" when I try to put in a leading silence of 3000 milliseconds.

 

Any ideas on what is wrong?

 

I was also looking into this, because I'm doing a beatles song at the moment in Eb, but whenever I load the gp or an xml file into EOF I get these "weird" chord names, and I just can't seem to get rid of them... tuning changes automatically upon loading the gp or xml files...

 

So how do I change this so I don't get these weird chord names no more? 

 

Found it, change tuning in EOF again to standard E tuning by changing it in 

 

track - pro guitar - set tuning : and there you change everything back to 0 (zero = E standard tuning)

 

Using the Rocksmit Custom Song Creator toolkit when creating your CDLC change the tuning to Eb, in that way your chord naming should stay the way it should be, so a (022000) is an Em instead of a Gm etc...

the beatles yellow submarine is a fact, you can find it here: http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/yellow-submarine-r1445

 

Hope its ok and that you like it... :???:

 

updated:

-changed name; so no more V1 or what ever appearing in the name in RS

-whole different (better and easier) tab version for rhythm and base.

-rhythm is now in Eb standard tuning

-base is in E standard tuning and should be better synced (i hope)

ok my first CDLC: the beatles yellow submarine is a fact, you can find it here: http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/yellow-submarine-r1445

 

Hope its ok and that you like it... :???:

 

 

can't load guitar pro files no more in Eof option seems to be disabled? Help please...

 

 

Make sure under Song --> Track you've selected one of the REAL options (REAL_Guitar for the lead). That should make GP importing available.

 

 

Doh! :oops: ! Forgot about that one....... Many thanks!!!!

 

Now only one problem left to solve, why is my EOF on my mac running in windows (with parallels) always giving me the mp3 is disabled, you need to install lame or vorbis tools, whilst under mac itself I "can" load mp3 files in EOF??

can't load guitar pro files no more in Eof option seems to be disabled? Help please...

I'm assuming you mean you donated on here so I added you a donator badge.
