okay idk whats the point of you showing me that video, i know how to download songs, the problem is when i go on rocksmith, i select the custom song i want to play which is freak on leash, and when i want to play it, it just freeze

I think it was assumed that you missed a step in the patching process before the cdlc songs will work thats why the video was posted.  Have you had any customs work for you yet?

Sorry for not being more specific.

 

In the youtube description there is a DLL file you need to download and place in your Rocksmith folder.

 

If you've been playing custom songs before, then the problem is with the chart.

i downloaded another custom song and it works fine. so i really do hope the main song i want to learn can be fixed! and you mean put it in my dlc folder?

If you are playing other songs on your PC, purchased Cherub Rock, have the dll in the Rocksmith 2014 directory, and have the customs in the DLC directory (or subfolder), I don't know why it's not working for you (sorry).

 

There is no problem with the chart.  I just (re)downloaded it and all arrangements are working.

 

It wouldn't hurt to re-download the custom song and put it in your DLC folder again in case it got corrupted somehow.

i have mac, and your saying you downloaded freak on leash and it works?

i have mac, and your saying you downloaded freak on leash and it works?

 

I downloaded Korn_Freak-on-a-Leash_v1_DD_p.psarc which is for a windows PC only and it works.

 

You can't play _p.psarc files on a mac, only _m.psarc files, which ISN'T on the Freak On A Leash download page.

 

You can use the Custom Song Creator Toolkit to convert it to mac.  The download link is in the description of the youtube video.  The third tab is the converter tab.  If you are still having trouble, check out the mac discussion here: http://customsforge.com/topic/10547-how-to-add-custom-songs-on-mac/

i know how to covert songs to mac, i have freak on leash on my rocksmith, the problem is when i select the song in the game, after i do the tuning, it just freezes.

 

btw, how is it going for you to play freak on leash in your game? any problems/complaints?

There are no problems playing the windows version.
