ive used cdlcs for a couple years now and only had issues starting up getting to know the basics and coming back to it wanting to add new stuff after years. after going through and adding more from the inital start i did the required updates, reverting to certain betas, and formatting to get the dlcs to be added in the game and now wanting to get back into it couple more years down the road im stumped and have asked on the discord page for assistance which members have tried their best to assist with the issue but are about as stumped as i am on the matter and was wondering if there was a way to just start all over from scratch so i can go through the process hopefully able to use the dlcs i have and new ones i want to download in the future.

You are going to have to help us, to help you. Without mockery or malice just honesty, this reads like mud. You have in your mind what you are after, what your situation is but it isn't clear in your post what and where the difficulty lies, what knowledge you are seeking.

The background you gave is fine, but doesn't really add to what the problem is.

Here is the core and crux, what is it exactly you are stumped over?

Start over from scratch meaning, Reinstalling the game, or setting everything with in the game / progress to zero? if resetting progress, just delete your profile, and add a new profile. Or versa vise add a new profile, and delete your old profile. Others have had their progress reset to zero by failures on cloud sync.

Why would you not be able to use new DLC? Have you recently tried adding new DLC that does not appear? Original DLC or Custom DLC?

so for starters, the game does work and all the old cdlc that ive gotten over the past few years still work and can play its just new stuff that i wanted to put on the game within the last couple days will not. im stumped on how to get the new cdlcs working and on the game like with the old stuff and where the issue lies so i can remember for future reference if the problem occurs again. and as far as what kind its the cdlc from the ignition search. i have tried looking into the shop seeing if there is something wrong like i have to repurchase cherub rock but when i go to the in game shop it looks like its corrupted and wont show results for songs to purchase. as far as what i have done this time to try and fix the issue of adding the new cdlc ive made sure the file names are correct ending in p.psarc, going through the cdlc enabler, reinstalled the game to see if that would kinda reboot everything, and made sure that i allowed the game to ennumerate songs. i had sent a screenshot of my files for the dlc to see if the members on discord could see if something was off but they said everything looked fine within the files themselves. and as far as starting over i was just wondering if there is something wrong with my copy or version that i can just do a full reset to try and fix whatever issue may be causing my problems now.

The discord server is usually where the "better" help is.

If the old cdlc works, anything else [new] should work too.

Cherub Rock:

a) moot / irrelevant as the new dll/ enabler bypasses the need for Cherub Rock.

b) unable to be purchased as it is removed from the store to purchase.

c)If previously purchased you can not re-purchase it for yourself. you own it for "life".

d) In game purchase is broken because UBI has not updated it and removed some songs so that the in-store jams and locks the game when you go to a certain point where songs that are no longer available are [listed] but yet removed from the in game shop.

This does bring up to me a different point, and since I was not part of any discussion in the Discord Server, I have to ask. Have you used Custom Forge song manager to change the song ID of any new song to that of another ODLC that you do own?

Before uninstalling the game and re-installing, always to make a back up of all your cdlc to a different folder so that they are not lost. It is not clear to me from the above if you have already uninstalled the game completely and tried reinstalling it, or if you have used verify files to see if you have any corrupted files. You did mention the word formatting.

If you have tried using the Beta version of the game, the current .dll will not work with it. You need one of the older .dlls to run the Beta. Stick with the updated version.

Are you using RS mods?

I recalled another individual having a similar problem;

https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/67574-new-cdlc-doesnt-show/

So if wanting to reinstall the game, remember to back up your cdlc as I said above.

holy canoli following that walkthrough he did worked for me thank you so much for posting that thread for me to go through. also just attempted adding a new song after the fact and i was able to play that too. greatly appreciate your help

Contrary to popular belief, that is indeed what I am here for. Glad you got it working, and thank you for letting us know it worked for you too. Nothing more frustrating than something not working the way you want or expect it to.
