CDLC shows up in my songs but won't start

Hi
 

New to rocksmith and cdlc. I'm able to download the .psarc file and put it in my dlc folder. When I start the game it appears in my list of songs but when I want to play the song the fretboard never shows up and the song never starts playing. At that point it won't let me quit the song and I have to force the application to quit. What am I doing wrong? I'm also not sure if I have the remastered rocksmith. I dont see "remastered" any where on the start up just Rocksmith 2014.

Thank you

    Start the latest build of CFSM and then:

     

    CFSM>Settings>Validate D3DX9_42.dll (make sure it is checked)

    CFSM>Exit and then Restart

    CFSM>Log (find it at the bottom of GUI, scroll the Log all the way to the top)  In the second line of the Log you should see "Validated 'D3DX9_42.dll' file installation ..."

    If you don't  see the above message then you need to install the dll file manually from elsewhere.

    If you do see the message then make sure you own Cherub Rock and have it installed.

    Thank you. I now have CFSM but I'm having trouble using it. While I did the instructions you gave me and it did say Validated 'D3DX9_42.dll in the log I still have the same problem. I don't know how to find a valid Rocksmith 2014 installation directory. It says please select a directory that contains a "dlc" subdirectory.

    @seasonofthesickness 

    You know how to use Windows search tool to find files, right.  Google is your friend if you don't (Look Here).  Use Windows search tool to find the file "songs.psarc".  This will be the 'RS2014 Installation Directory' that you want to select/use in CFSM.

     

    Like I said before, make sure you own Cherub Rock and have it installed.

    @@cozy1 thank you. I found the right directory and I do own cherub rock and have it installed. But I still have the same initial problem. I don't believe I have Rocksmith remastered. Just Rocksmith 2014. Is that the problem?
