Rocksmith remastered discussion (part 2)

[Unleashed2k]

Please discuss Rocksmith Remastered here.

FAQ:
Q: My CDLC doesn't work!
A: For windows: Please use the new .dll | Mac: Please use the Patch. You can get both here
For further help regarding customs not playing see : CDLC not working - General Rocksmith - CustomsForge

Q: I'm getting 100% on all the CDLC songs I play
A: Thanks to @@cozy1 and @@Lovroman you can now update all your collection in the 1.2.6.4 beta version of CFSM that can be found here : http://ignition.customsforge.com/cfsm

 

Q: I'm getting camera issue on some CDLC, why?

A: The remaster update slightly changed how the camera is handle in game so CDLC that don't have section have now different camera issue than before that are more problematic now. Note that not having section also means that Riff Repeater (RR) isn't available in game and also means that the play count won't be incremented every time the song is played. If you find such CDLC, alert the author of the problem and report the CDLC to us via the appropriate report button.

 

Q: The play count isn't getting updated when i play CDLC, why?

A: The remaster update slightly changed how it counts the number of time someone play a song which seems be related to DD instead of only section as it was before the remaster. So any CDLC without DD won't have is play count properly working.

 

Q: I'm getting crashes when on the Learn A Song page of some CDLC?

A: The remaster update changed how bonus and alternate arrangement are visible which also have a side effect of provoking random crashes when looking at songs that have too much (more than 5) arrangement in the Learn A Song area of the game. If you find such CDLC, alert the author of the problem and report the CDLC to us via the appropriate report button.

 

Q: I'm getting an error when launching the Rocksmith Remastered
A: Please verify your integrity via Steam. We do not support pirated copies and we will ban you if caught with a copy. Make sure to have Cherub Rock DLC to be able to use CDLC.

Q: Is Ubisoft trying to ruin CDLC?
A: No. When they updated the game, the executable file changed which is why the dll needs to be updated, it's a side effect of software programming not a voluntary maneuver to break up things. Other issue arise by the discrepancies between how CDLC and ODLC are made, they aren't 100% similar inside and some of those differences can be put to light when the game changes how it react to some information.
This is not ubisoft's fault as they never provided CDLC or mod support in the first place and when the main code changes, is it our duty to fix our mods to make the CDLC work again.

@ Yes it is known, and DDC can correct this.

[Chlipouni]

@@lamby,

You can also use the DDC tab of the Toolkit by using the check box "generate new arrangement Id"

@,

Use DDC v3.2 beta to fix this issue in old CDLCs

[Necronomy]

Ok, It seems I cant find the way to run CDLC.

- Bought today Rocksmith 2014 Remastered on Steam

- Ive put the new .dll in the rocksmih directory

- Ive put my custom songs in the dlc directory

I can't see any download link for v3.2 DDC. Btw,I reportid this issue not long ago and allmost every CDLC in my folder have this problem.

[firekorn]

The CFSM app integrate DDC3.2 and can fix this issue in the repair section.

[BoomSoMuch]

I'm having a partial success trying to fix this.

I just got the latest version of CFSM (v1.2.7.9) and ran the repair with the Add DD button selected.

Good News

It did a great job fixing the songs that did not have DD. They now have DD, the 100% bug is gone, and no chord clutter problem.

 

Bad News

I'm having issues with songs that already had DD. It did fix the 100% bug, but I still have the chord clutter.

The example above is Lola. I also tried going to the song manager tab and using the bulk action to add DD to fix it. No luck

 

TLDR:

The current fix in CFSM works for songs that do NOT have DD. However I can't seem to fix the chord clutter issue on songs that already had DD.

[franfit]

hey guys, thanks for all your hard work. everything is almost back to normal. I wish I could do these thing!

 

I have lost "welcome to the black parade" and "the thrill is gone".  they show up in the new CFSM, under RS1 Compatibility DLC under song packs tab, but is not showing up in RS remastered!!

 

what did I screw-up and is there some way to fix it???

 

thanks! 

[firekorn]

@@franfit Do you own them on steam? (they are RS1 DLC so they won't show up as RS2014 DLC under steam).

thanks for the replay!

 

Yep. i even went to try to redownload from steam, but there doesn't appear to be a way to do that. so i was going to buy it again (on sale for $1.49  :)), but it said i already owned it so that was a no go.

 

it was there before i used all the fixes and like i said before, it does show up in CFSM. just not in the game. it must be somewhere.   

[firekorn]

@franfitMake sure you don't any filter in the song list.

 

If it doesn't work, i would suggest to delete the rs1_compatibility_dlc.psarc (not sure that is the exact name but it should be close) and verify the integrity of the game files via steam so it should redownload it. Not sure it will fix the issue but if that files was corrupted, it could explain the behaviour.

[franfit]

i just realized that all the songs (146) from rs1 compatibility dlc are not showing.    i'm sure i an delete the 1 file but 'm not sure how to verify the integrity of game files. do i just restart  RS through Steam?

[firekorn]

@@franfit In your steam library, right click on the game, go to properties, in the local files tab, you haave the option to verify the integrity of the game cache which should check for any problem in the game files and redownload the corrupted file.

[franfit]

@@firekorn you did it man. fixed all the corrupt files and i'm rocking again. 

 

thanks so much for your help!!!  :D

[DoctahFrank]

I'm assuming this is a false positive (and I really shouldn't be using Norton) but Norton is telling me the .dll is unsafe and should be removed :/

[Oblikfan]

Thanks guys! The dll file worked for me!

 

I can finally resume jamming!

I'm assuming this is a false positive (and I really shouldn't be using Norton) but Norton is telling me the .dll is unsafe and should be removed :/

 

Right on all counts, ha!

[Trailofthedead]

Does anyone have the exact instructions (step by step) to use CDLC's for Rocksmith Remastered on the Mac? I've tried all the instructions on the post I've seen, nothing has seemed to work for me. Is there a video for it on youtube?

[blingity]

Hello, Ran in to a couple of situations today trying to work between the PC and OSX versions. To start - thanks for all the hard work on the 100% mastery fix - however I may have uncovered some bugs in it (granted I'm probably not doing very common things, certainly not for common reasons).

 

This be more of a question - but the situation I ran in to is that I repaired all of my PC CDLC with the beta Customs Forge Song Manager - and then took all of that repaired CDLC and used the RS Custom Song Toolkit to convert that PC CDLC to Mac - which I didn't get any errors, all the CDLC IS playable on OSX - however they all again suffer from the 100% mastery bug despite my repairing of said bug with the CFSM. So the question/suggestion is: Is there a possibility to do one of two things: Make the CFSM catch and repair any of the Mac CDLC files that I may have in my directory (even though it only runs in Windows), or is it possible that in the RS Custom Song Toolkit to implement a fix so that the 100% mastery bug doesn't crop back up when I convert from PC CDLC to Mac?

[firekorn]

@@blingity Which version of the toolkit did you used for the conversion?

[blingity]

I downloaded the latest release version (August 2016) and used that - is there a beta release I can try it again with?

[blingity]

@@firekorn ^

[firekorn]

@@blingity The beta version is the way to go in that kind of situation as the stable release still don't had any update regarding the Remastered issue (obviously looking at when it was made available).

[blingity]

@@firekorn thanks i'll install the latest beta release and convert again.
