@Chinolofus  Did you confirm file exists?  Could not find file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Rocksmith2014\dlc\cdlc\acdc_dog-eat-dog_v1_0_DD_p.psarc'.  Make sure it is named 'acdc_dog-eat-dog_v1_0_DD_p.psarc' and not 'ac/dc_dog-eat-dog_v1_0_DD_p.psarc'.  That slash in AC/DC is often a valid filename killer.

 

I'll have to check about the "/" but it happens with every band I try so I doubt it's that.

 

The files are there I add them to the tool kit by selecting "add" and selecting them from the folder.

checked the acdc file no "/"

@Chinolofus  I used the latest version of the toolkit DDC tab menu to add DD to 'acdc_dog-eat-dog_v1_0_p.psarc' and the toolkit produced the expected DD file 'acdc_dog-eat-dog_v1_0_DD_p.psarc'.  I am unable to reproduce the error.  Please provide the complete details of your workflow that produce the error.

I click the "DDC" tab, then click "add", my cdlc folder pops up and I select the song and click "open", after that I only check the "overwrite original file" box and then press "generate DD. I'm using v2.9.1.0-b06e2b44 BETA

looks like it was the "overwrite"  check box that was causing me problems. if i dont check it then it works. odd since im pretty positive the first time i tried i didnt check that box and it didnt work then either.

@@Chinolofus So I used your 'overwrite' workflow and could not reproduce the error on my machine.  Please check that you have full read/write access to both the folder and file:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Rocksmith2014\dlc\cdlc\acdc_dog-eat-dog_v1_0_DD_p.psarc'

Look here for how to check if you have admin privileges (required) and that you have AV white listed the toolkit and support files (required).  This is especially important since you are running on Win10.

Let me know if you figure out the fix.

i have admin privileges, i white listed the dlc folder, .psarc file and tool kit folder but not sure how to whitelist the tool kit it self.  so far im still getting the same error.

Copy the file to the root 'dlc' folder and try adding DD again.  If this doesn't work then post a link to the file.

tried that and still doesnt work. its not the file since it wont work with any file i try. i guess i solved it enough since i can get it to work without overwriting the file. its just an extra step deleting the original. thanks for your help, you really dont need to waste anymore time on this.
