Hi! Due to me recently trying to learn to play the guitar while using Rocksmith. I stumbled upon Custom Forge and it's Ignition4 Search which made it nicer to learn to play guitar with the songs i like. Obviously, like many of us there aren't all the songs that i like, which is why i decided to take on the challenge of creating my own CDLC and also to share them once they are finished and good enough! But, as i started today, having downloaded all the softwares needed to do so except for Wwise 2013 version which is available on the website in the tutorial section but that doesn't want to work for me saying that "it couldn't start" and i don't really know why, so if someone can help me with that i would be really glad! I'll try to download the 2021 version later during the day to see if it works though. On another note, i would really welcome all the advice that you guys could give me! In fact, i have a few questions that if someone who find and read this could answer : 1st : Is the default tone on the RStoolkit good? and if it's better to have custom or re-used (such as the tones from Rocksmith) would it be better to do so? And how would i be able to create my own tones if necessary? 2nd : i use TuxGuitar as it is free, but is it similar to GuitarPro? Are there any things that i can't do on TuxGuitar that i could do with GuitarPro? 3rd : When making CDLC, what type of tabs do you use ? Do you rather go for quality ones or do you rather trust your ear? Personally i can't trust my ear i don't have enough experience for that... 4th : Editor On Fire, i honestly find it difficult even when using the "c" button which allow a sound to be heard on the note, do you guys have any advice to make it "easier"? Are there things i should learn that could be useful to use on this software? i think taking your time is key but it is sometimes neverwracking ahah 5th (and final question for now) : If there are more than 1 or 2 guitars on the TAB on your .gp what do you do? Do you add some some part to one already existing to avoid creating too many arrangements? I don't know if all of my questions will be understandable, if not do not hesitate to tell me and i'll try to write them in a more understandable way! I'm really grateful to those who will help me on those matters and give me the answers i'm seeking, Thanks in advance ! See you around UPDATE Hi Again! I have read all the responses that have been posted! Firstly, thank you guys for your honesty! Indeed i know that jumping right in the process of creating CDLC while having no or next to no knowledge of musicality and all of that and while beging a beginner is in fact going to make the task even harder and honestly it scared me at first and i have paused 2 of the 4 projects i had in mind after trying to chart them on EOF ahah. So secondly, I have decided to take one of the project that i really wanted to add to RS, that nobody ever made but which i wanted to be able to play so bad and try and chart it. For now it is going surprisingly well, BUT i have one major problem and it is that RStoolkit won't recognize the path to my Wwise and it gives me this message : If i can find a way to correct this, i will soon be able to test what i've been working on for the past 6 hours! For you to know, i have downloaded on the link in the tutorial the .rar which for me is a .zip which gave me the "WwiseLauncher" and a Bundle with "prerequisites" and i only executed the launcher, so is there a step that i missed which may cause thise problem? It is my first time installing this software, so there may be some informations that i don't have on the installation process But just as some of you said, indeed i'll try my best to keep on learning the guitar before actually putting so much work into making CDLC because it's really time consuming and tiring when you're not prepared ahah! Once again thank you all for your kindness and answers!

Hi Everyone I hope i have posted this in the correct forum I want to create some CDLC but i am really struggling to find accurate tabs on which to base the CDLC on, also the more obscure bands that i want to create the CDLC from there just doesn't seem to be a lot of accurate tabs around, i might be able to find tabs occasionally but when i load then into Eof they just wont fit with the actual Music. so my probably quite Nooby question is-is there any auto tab writing software available where i can play the track i want to create the CDLC on and the prog will write the TAB for me ? I have wondered for a while where some of you guys who create CDLC for less mainstream bands actually get your tabs from or do you create them yourselves ? I am primarily interested in creating the Bass lines because its the bass lines that i want to play and there are so many brilliant bass lines out there that have never been turned into CDLC and i would like to add something more to the Community by creating CDLC myself but it is so far proving to be far more difficult and time consuming than i had previously imagined primarily due to the lack of accurate TABs Thanks in advance for your assistance

Hi Guys, hope you're all fine. I got a weird problem with CFSM as it doesn't detect new CDLC added in my CDLC folder (which was working fine just 2 weeks ago for my last CDLC adding). I put the CDLC in the folder but CFSM scan see nothing new. I try rescan, reinstall but it always fail to see the new songs. Does this ring a bell to anyone here ? Br.

Can we get more Skating Polly songs please...

How can I make tones like 'lead phaser', 'distortion processed', 'acoustic octave' etc.? I've seen these kind of tones even in cdlcs so I know it's possible I've tried importing the tone, for example 'overdrive tremolo' from 'spiderwebs' by no doubt In the toolkit the tone type is marked as 'tremolo' and also in the game it just shows as 'tremolo' There's also a cdlc ('how did we get so dark' by royal blood) with a bass distortion lead (or something like that) tone I saved the tone as a .tone2014.xml file and I notice that on the image I'm guessing the two numbers after 357 define the tone I already tried that too, with different numbers, but it will just stay, either as 'bass distortion lead', or just with the name of the first tone (bass in this case)

I recently changed my hard drive to an SSD and some of the CDLC's I've gotten from Custom Forge site have quit working. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello, I decided to give making my own CDLC a try. After failing miserably because I picked a song that was way too long and complex for my learning I decided to make Danko Jones - The Twisting Knife. Things I know so far: Tone - Not 100% accurate, mostly because I grabbed the first distortion sound I found. It works pretty good but there's no separate lead tone, which I will try to work one but in 20 years of playing guitar I've never been a tone guy, so we'll see. Lead/Rhythm tracks - Essentially 100% the same thing, the only difference is during the lead break, was considering cutting the Rhythm track since the difficulty of the solo is like maybe a 2/10 so it's not gonna throw too many people off. Lyrics tracking - Getting it as close as I did was a small miracle since it seems my patience does not include this particular task. I did a few runs in UltraStar and then another in EoF so it's pretty closeish. By the time I was doing a final review in EoF I realized I messed a few syllables up but since this is a guitar game and not a singing game I just left it as is for now. Any feedback on major mistakes, timing issues, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I didn't test DD, the song is like 4 chords so there's not really much for adjustments other than the speed so it's probably fine, I find DD does actually make anything easier to learn so I never use it. Also, any general guidance on how you think a lead tone should be set up would be cool. Thanks https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YXIqjCbdurKHKziEP6EBQbfKStv895UJ?usp=sharing

We can use tones from any DLC or CDLC so lets collect our own CDLC tone database :) *I know that its good when you can search through the tones like through CDLC database, but not now :P How to import tones from game you can found here : http://customsforge.com/topic/2027-tone-creation-process-for-rocksmith-2014/ For saving tone in xml format do: Edit (imported) tone in tone list When you'll get tone form opened Click Save Name tone like "song_tone name.xml" For loading tone from xml format do: Edit (imported) tone in tone list When you'll get tone form opened Click Load Select your tone.xml file Here Suggested format for submitting tones: Artist: Song label link to archive with xmls or to each xml separateNext Song label next links to xmls etc.

Hey all. Hope this is the right place for my question. I am trying to make my first song by following the tutorials on here. I am having one problem that I can't get past which is in creation of preview audio on dlc creator. I click the button but get an error message saying access denied. Has anyone else had this and if so how did you fix it? Ta

How can we encourage more users of this site to chart CDLCs? I just had a look through the Request CDLC tab and there's an almost infinite list of hopeful suggestions. It's mainly a dumping ground for requests. I doubt if many charters actually look it up. They of course have a huge list of their own favourites at the particular time and do one of those. I somehow doubt that as many as one percent of site members actually chart. It's tempting to just be a passive down-loader and use other peoples efforts to learn to play. I have only done half a dozen charts myself, as I'm slow at it and it's a lot of work and I don't have much time. I only started because another enthusiastic member, Avdocatwork encouraged me to try. There's lots of good help once you get started on the Create CDLC tab and other places on the net. But how can we encourage more users to actually have a go? It's a steep learning curve at the beginning, but anyone can learn. The more of us that chart, the more likely your favourite song will appear on Ignition. Users seem to be less inclined to give positive feedback on CDLC in recent years. (Well that's my impression anyhow.) Maybe we could publish a list of first time charters like we do for Patreons, I don't know, but I think the Admins should think about something like that. After all, we're not getting any more content from Ubi, and new content leads to donors and keeps RS and this site alive. I'm just asking how can we get more users to become charters?

I tried creating my own CDLC, but all tutorials I found leave something out, so it´s more of a patchwork of various tutorials. I didn´t try it yet but everybody who takes a look at it will know that it will not work and it looks like a child with no arms drew with crayons. I desperately needs somebodies help because there is so little tutorials or documentation about all the things needed to create one. I believe I already have all the programs, but I could be wrong of course. If anybody experienced would kindly have some time to help me and take a look at my burning trashpile that would be deeply appreciated. Correction: It actually works kind of okay, but I still need help with setting the correct tone and somebodies ear because I have some notes wrong.

I've been playing Rocksmith for years on Xbox and want to now make the transition to PC as there is no new DLC for Xbox. Can anyone recommend a Laptop to use for (mainly) Rocksmith/CDLC. I don't know too much about computers and I'm struggling to understand what the specs that are needed compared to current laptops. Ideally I want something for around £500 that other people have used for Rocksmith so I know if definitely works, as I have read people have issues with sound lag with some computers. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks

Hi. Just purchased locksmith after someone recommended it to learn how to play lead on certain songs. Purchased cherub pumpkins and went through the steps to run the cdlc. I can put any of them in, but when I open them I can only get through to the tuning section. After I finish tuning, it starts loading and then freezes. Any suggestions? Running Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.4, MacBook pro 2015 Rocksmith- latest update as of 7/9/18 Thanks

Hey so I have been trying to get CDLC to work forever to no success. Game will not launch. I followed the instructions from: I have download the D3DX9 from link listed above. I have added the file to the ROOT folder. I have Cherub Rock (I have all the DLC the game has to offer). I have even tried different D3DX9 from different sites and I have gotten it to get to the tuning phase but it soft crashes and won't get past the amp screen. I have a pirated version of the game and I am using the No Cable patch to play the game without the Real Tone Cable (overpriced for no reason lol). So I am not sure if it is the fact I am using the No Tone Cable as that is the only way to launch the game for my cable to work. I don't know if it is the fact it is pirated. Please if anyone has experienced the same issues as me. Thank you!

Welcome to my workshop! I just wanted to create a post where I can update current projects and keep my CDLC organized as I upload more. Below you'll find a link to my Trello board, a timeline where I'm far more active in updating what's going on with my charts. From there you'll be able to see possible charts, charts that are up next, in progress, on hold, and uploaded. You'll also be able to see exactly what stage of completion a chart is in with checklists I create for each one. *Click here to visit my Trello workshop!*

I have download a ton of songs but only two pop up in game. I have been trying to add Love Bug by the jonas brothers and it will not add. It is in the DLC file.

So I'm a total noob in creating CDLC but i did not find anything with searching the forums. I tried today creating my first CDLC and came accross the problem that i have 4 different tab tracks inside the guitar pro file. As I tried to import the second Tab, EOF just giving me an error which says there are already notes in this difficulty. I'm pretty sure theres a way to sort of merge them to get a Lead and Rhythm Track but i just couldn't figure out how. So theres my question, how do i merge or combine the guitar parts ? Thx for any help

Hi, I've just got a new Windows 10 laptop and have tried migrating my Rocksmith files from my old Windows 7 laptop. Initially I copied the DLC file and CFSM files that live under the Rocksmith 2014 folder. Doing this, I could see all songs - CustomsForge official songs plus CDLC. The official songs seem to all work fine, however when I 'play' CDLC, I get past the tuning stage, but the screen then doesn't produce the song - I'm just in the setting with the amps and can play the guitar (so the game isn't frozen) but nothing happens with the song. I thought that maybe I needed to download CFSM again, so downloaded the rar file, got that opened etc... - but unfortunately that hasn't fixed the issue Any ideas on what likely simple step I'm missing? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! sorry admins if this isn't posted in correct thread new member here, managed to get CDLC working today! really impressed with the time and effort people have put in, amazing! my post is really about the difficulty levels on some CDLC i'm fairly new to guitar still (under 1 year) and can only play the odd song on hard and rest medium almost/some easy depends on the artist! and some of CDLC i really want but i have noticed on any difficulty, the chart/notes are the same no matter what is this because there is no dynamic difficulty? because i have noticed some songs that have DD you can play easy/medium/hard and it scales to adjust my other request would be does anybody know good creators/songs i can grab that are DD friendly for myself out there, until i get good enough to play the full difficulties :unsure: so more friendly kinda beginner/intermediate songs Thanks everyone for reading! replies be greatly appreciated! keep on rockin' :lol:
