I have this section

When I play it in Rocksmith, it shows every E5 (tuning is B Standard so E5 is Yellow Blue orange) chord, .    Can anyone see why Rocksmith would not remove at least some of them?   It does this for all chords, Rocksmith doesnt simplify/shrink any repeating chords in this song

1) is the fingering for all the chord the same?

 

2) what does the 3d preview of EOF shows?

 

3) there's some preference setting in EOF to manage repeating pane depending on how close chords are from each other.

 

That's the basic i will look for in the first place. Also does this happen with and without DD?

I just repacked an old song and high density behavior is different now with the latest update.   The discussion in the EOF topic is a bit over my head, but I think that has something to do with it.

EOF and the toolkit are grappling with the new ability for any chord to be displayed as low density, even chords in the middle of a handshape phrase. I'd suggest spot checking some of the repeated chords in the XML file to see if the highDensity value for them is 1 like expected. If not, let me know as that could be an EOF issue. Otherwise as firekorn says, certain things such as dislike chord fingerings or manually defined names would cause two otherwise identical, adjacent chords to display as two chord boxes.

Sorry, that was the problem in my case.  For reasons I don't remember I manually named some chords " ".  I fixed it and it works as expected now.

Here is a piece of the XML at that section.    So I see the HighDensity=1, and they all have the same chord ID.

Here is a link to the PSARC http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/feint-r19519

 

When I turn on the RS 3d chord display, it does remove them correctly in EOF

I added a condition to the 3D rendering so that if two adjacent identical chords have different defined names, the latter chord is not displayed as a repeat line (unless that chord is also marked with the high density status).

So after some unpacking and some more research on my end.   Turns out it is DDC.   If I look at the unpacked version DDC has removed all the HighDensity=1 and set it to HIghDensity=0
