Modifying existing CDLC (charts, lyrics) / Set-order lists

[Powdertrail]

Hi!

I'd like to know if it's somehow possible to do these things:
1) To have a setlist play in a specific order, as Rocksmith allows to sort in many ways but none of the criteria serve me.

 

 

2) Modify existing CDLC - for three reasons

- To modify the lyrics as I'd like for people who watch whilst I play to read them, and not everyone I know is well versed in japanese... or english, for that matter

- To correct minor charting mistakes, such as off notes or a particular track like Chronos from Parkway Drive claiming to be in Csomething when it's just normal tuning for a 5 string bass. I know you're meant to tell the chart maker, but not all of them still visit this site.

- To not have to swap tones when a song starts. Some have been greatly charted but awfully mastered, having terrible tones, heaps of gain or basically none at all lol

To answer your first question, I’d say the game doesn’t offer that option directly, but if it’s really important to you, one idea might be to use DLC Builder to change, for example, the release year of the songs and set them as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. That way, when you sort your playlist by year, they’ll appear in the order you want. Alternatively, you could rename the songs to add a number at the beginning of the title.

Regarding your second question, it’s quite simple to use DLC Builder to fix some of the things you mentioned (adjusting volumes, changing tones, etc.), but for other tasks (like editing lyrics or manually modifying notes), you’d need to export the file to EoF.

I can help you out if you have questions about DLC Builder, but for EoF, I’d recommend heading to Discord (if no one else replies here). There are plenty of knowledgeable people there who are always willing to help.

In any case, here’s a tutorial:

1.  In DLC Builder we have what is called "show sort fields" which shows what the game would sort the song as  for example, `The Beatles` would be the name of an artist chart, but then in the sort field, it would be `Beatles, The`      so yes you can alter the sort field for example, to have numbers, like 1,2,3,4,5 etc to create a custom setlist based on numbers,   This can also be done using customsforge song manager

2. a Yes you can modify lyrics and add japanese / non ascii extended asci characters but you will need to use a few workarounds which are available on the forums,  then you'd just add the lyric file once you have sync'd it in eof or charter to your dlc builder project file for the song and repackage the psarc

b, yes you can use dlc builder and eof/charter to correct minor mistakes,  though i'm pretty sure parkway drive has always played in D drop C since their inception but not really important.

c.  yes you can alter tone swaps and tones themselves using dlc builder and eof/charter,   i would suggest watching mage-gages video guide as its the most up to date on all of these processes.
