Rhythm improvement

The beginning bothers me when I can't see the notes 🫤

However, this turned out to be easier than I thought 😉

Lead improvement. Unfortunately, no one wants to compete with me in this nice song, so I have no motivation to continue improving this...

Also download and run CustomsForgeSongManager after every batch of CDLC to run repairs (add DD, mastery 100% bug, max five arrangements). It's a bit of extra work but I think worth it and helps avoid the game crashing.

Yep cfsm definatley can be a good short term fix however if the charter is still active (and even if hes not) i would still recommend putting the problem in the comments page that way the charter knows that his cdlc is faulty and can update it for everyone. This also lets people know the issue before downloading the cdlc (if they read the comments).

From my experience cfsm is more like a one size clothes fits all or a "cure all" medicine. It can definatley fix some problems (like dd) but ive noticed in the past it can cause other visual problems. for example:

it would cause some chords to be set as crazy status, makes the handshape of the chord appear each strum which can make a simple chart very bussy and a bit messy (idk if they fixed it)

 since its just an algorithm it might not make phrases/sections in logical places. phrases will determine the camera position and anchors so they should ideally be done right by the creator. But in cases like this song ig it helps.

Overall, just use it with caution if impatient (also why i didnt include it originaly) and give the benefit of the doubt to the creator. If the cdlc is missing DD usually theres more stuff that could be improved in which case a rework would be better than just bandaiding (cfsm) something that needs stitches but thats just my opinion.

If they are new creators you can also point them to customsforge on discord where other creators tend to be more active and helpfull if anyone has doubts.

Good point, I always assume the charts I dl that haven’t been updated in years, especially from before Rocksmith+ came out, are from creators that are no longer active in RS2014. You’re right that putting in comments is a good idea. I always appreciate when someone says “the chart is trash don’t waste your time” 😂 brutal

Yea! The fix is don't download old cdlcs lol.

but like @ aand14  mentioned, for a short term fix download https://ignition4.customsforge.com/tools/cfsm and use the repair function ( i assume you already have it since you are making drop d paths). And please leave the issue in the comment section on those that have problems when you have the time on the cdlc page.
