Export inconsistency with linknext regarding notehead

[firekorn]

The issue is relatively simple.

 

Here is the riff in EOF :

 

Now here is result in RS at two different point in the song (the riff was copy/paste in EOF to make sure i didn't missed anything)

 

Expected version (all notehead are displayed properly) :

 

Unexpected version (notehead on the D strings doesn't appear) :

 

I have a very similar kind of riff :

 

Which always display as expected :

 

Here is the corresponding xml and the associated EOF project :

Are you using the latest beta Toolkit where such an issue regarding linknext has been fixed?

 

And also, putting 'split' on a chord that EOF splits automatically will export duplicate notes into the XML.

I'm using a slightly older (2018-03-18) version as i wasn't aware that there was a newer version because the toolkit don't even warn about new version if the auto-update box is unchecked...

 

Gonna try to see with the most recent beta.

 

Interesting about the additionnal note with the split but iirc, the riff on the E/A strings is actually as imported by EOF from the guitar pro file which is why i followed the same pattern.

Let me know if it doesn't work with the newer toolkit, and possibly taking the unneeded split status off. I might have to see if processing a split status for a chord that is automatically being split up during export is a special case I should program for.

@@raynebc it does work with the latest beta. I haven't fiddled around with the split status to see if the effect is the same with/without yet but i'll get back to you when i do.

It might be that having that duplicate note written to XML as @@iminashi mentioned has no terrible side effect, but it would be better for EOF not to write a duplicate at all.

I'll admit i haven't looked into the xml at all yet but i didn't noticed anything particular in game at all so far.

So i looked a bit at the xml and the note is indeed there twice :

<note time="364.407" string="0" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" />
<note time="364.682" string="0" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" slideTo="10"/>
<note time="364.682" string="1" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" slideTo="10"/>
<note time="364.682" string="0" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" slideTo="10"/>
<note time="364.682" string="1" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" slideTo="10"/>
<note time="364.957" string="0" fret="10" sustain="0.232"/>
<note time="364.957" string="1" fret="10" sustain="0.232"/>

Both note that constitute chord from that riff are indeed two times in the xml :


Note that this doesn't actually seems to provoke any visible issue ingame though.

 

But here is the resulting xml without the split status :

<note time="364.407" string="0" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" />
<note time="364.682" string="0" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" slideTo="10" />
<note time="364.682" string="1" fret="3" sustain="0.275" linkNext="1" slideTo="10" />
<note time="364.957" string="0" fret="10" sustain="0.232" />
<note time="364.957" string="1" fret="10" sustain="0.232" />

I've fixed this. Luckily it was an easy one.
