Since I noticed a gigantic gap in how to make a proper DLC for Rocksmith 2014. I am going to be doing a video next weekend of how to make a DLC from scratch. Going to cover ever aspect of making one. From beginning to end. Hopefully it helps some people or improves the quality of DLCs that are being released.

 

Will post it next weekend in the Help Thread. Hopefully I can get it sticky'd.

You will never get a set of tabs that is 100 percent accurate to the song beat for beat. It ALWAYS needs syncing.. slow it to 50 percent, F5 for wave form, and settle in for 30 minutes or more of rinse and repeat.

Thanks for this Snake3169. I would like to see more of the beat sync process, but this is still very helpful.

I watched some of this.  Besides the volume issue, it would be cool if you could demo this as you actually go through the whole process of creating a customm.  Some of the stuff you talked about (like using UltraStor), you covered so quickly that I have no idea if what I heard is what you really meant.  Also, when you're talking about the doing stuff in EoF, you scroll back and forth in the song very quickly for apparently no reason, and that's very distracting.  I'd love to see you break this into one on importing tabs and a separate video on how manually add notes/chords.  The reason I say this is because if somebody has a really good tab and doesn't need to manually add any notes, the entire middle part of the video (probably at least 1/3 of the video) is taken up by manually adding notes.

 

Otherwise, thanks for doing this.  I may take a shot at making a custom or two based on this.

I might consider making another video and breaking things up into step by step process. and show a bit of the syncing process.

Another thing that would be cool would be if you could put links on YouTube for where to get those tools.

Half the time, youtube doesn't allow links in the descriptions.

Ill redo the video when I get laid off from work. Will have plenty of time to put into it then.

Hope you are not really getting laid off.  Oh wait, more videos if you do.  Now I am confllicted ;)

Snake,

 

I have been working and practicing on making a custom.  I have got the song into Rocksmith and i see the notes ready to go but the thing does not scroll to start the song.  The song loads up does the tuning thing then you see the track to start but it just sits there for couple seconds then ends.

 

Any ideas would help.

 

Thanks,

Repackage it killer, that usually fixes it 95 percent of the time.

Thanks Snake,

 

I found what i did wrong i wasn't converting the wwise file properly and putting in the packaging.  Once i converted it properly and packaged it works.  I got couple of minor glitches to fix but i should be on a roll pretty soon.

 

Thanks for the help the and tutorial vid.

No problem ^^

Hey Snake,

 

TYVM for doing the lengthy tutorial. I havent had chance to watch it properly yet (at work currently) but it looks like it might finally get me to understand everything I need to do. I truly admire the effort and generosity of all those who work to create custom DLC, and am keen to do some myself, to get some 90s indie rock stuff up.

 

Your own effort making the tutorial to help those of use less gifted is greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers

Started work on the new Tutorial

Got the jist of the video done.. just need to add a few things and edit it into steps and make sure everything is clear, then will publish it, more than likely it will be well over an hour or so long.
