@@MichiosDeath_Drive Are you sure you bought Cherub Rock?

Yes, I first downloaded rocksmith 2014 along with the original rocksmith and the transfer packet with cherub rock etc for cdlc on my old PC back in 2016. CDLC works on that pc but I bought a new PC a few days ago and tried doing what I did on that PC to this one but only the dlc from the original Rocksmith shows up on 2014. None of the cdlc I downloaded today appears. IDK if this related but the transferred songs have a m.psarc and p.psarc file while the cdlc downloads only have p.psarc in my dlc file.

@@MichiosDeath_Drive is Cherub Rock showing up in game? If not make sure it is marked as installed in your steam library, without it no CDLC will ever show up.

So yea I had problems with it not working, followed the instructions but I finally got it to work. Here's some troubleshooting tips

 

1. DLC don't have to be in the DLC directory only but can be organized in sub directories.

2. Just buy Cherub Rock so you don't have to deal with changing IDs

3. Yes if you are on Windows 10 both the D3DX9_42.dll and every CDLC file needs to be unblocked so right click on it go to properties and check the unblocked box and apply the changes.

4. Make sure the file is renamed to D3DX9_42.dll and NOT D3DX9_42 (1).dll or D3DX9_42 (2).dll 

 

So at this point I did all this and it still wasn't working, just didn't see the CDLCs in the play list

 

(no i didn't see the console popup either but could be because my computer is super fast which is likely the same for many of you out there.)

 

5. So I created a totally new profile and guess what now I see all the songs. So maybe that final step is you have to create a new profile if you have been playing for a long time on an old profile before you added the DLL files.

6. Not sure if it matter but yes I only start the game from steam.

 

Lastly I have been using the CustomsForge Song Manager to repair CDLC because it helps sometimes in repairing the dynamic difficulty of files.

@@namsterdamus regarding "5", it sounds like you had a filter on your song list active in game which explains why you didn't see the CDLC you added, you don't need to create a new profile to see CDLC.

The filter is indicated on the side of the songlist, just have to press Alt to be able to change what song list is selected.

Bought Cherub Rock, installed it, downloaded the dll from this post and another on this site, as well as a few other locations, pasted it into rocksmith root folder, unblocked from properties window (yay windows 10 for hidden and silent blocking of stuff) downloaded some Muse tracks from here, launch Rocksmith, no new songs in the list, not even the Cherub Rock song that I bought. Not sure where to go from here.

@@mchedd You are missing or have the incorrect .dll file.  Or maybe it has the wrong name if you downloaded it several times.   Delete the old one and try this one.
