If what you want to do is to replace the existing album art for a file, you don’t even need to depack it. You drag and drop the song/pack into C3 CON Tools. It’ll open up in CON Explorer. Then go to the Contents tab. Click on root->songs->find the song you want->gen and in there you should see a .png_xbox file. If so, all you do is click on it, and drag and drop the replacement .png_xbox file over it and it’ll tell you whether you want to replace. Click yes. Do this for all the songs in the pack. Once done, go back to Information tab and click Save.

If you’re replacing the album art with something that isn’t already used in game or by C3, then yes, you use Advanced Art Converter to convert the source image to png_xbox. But most likely, the album art you’re looking to use is already in use by HMX or C3. You should always use that png_xbox file. Even if your image from a Google search “looks” the same, or even if it looks better, if it’s not the same png_xbox, it’s not the same in game. And you want it to match in game. You can find the album art for all HMX songs and most C3 songs at http://www.keepitfishy.com/albumart/ … get it from there.

The problem you’re going to come across is that RB1 songs didn’t have album art at all. That just wasn’t a feature of the game at that point. So in the RB1 CONs there isn’t one. You can try adding one by clicking all the way through to the gen folder like I said above and right clicking on the bottom panel, Add new file(s). Save as instructed above. So now you’ll have the album art in the CON, but that still may not work in game. And that’s because RB2 and RB3 on disc brought with them album art for all these songs, along with chart fixes, dta fixes, etc. And those I believe will overwrite whatever you put in the CON file.

At that point I think you need to reach out to RBHP and see if they have a way to do it.

Thanks for this thread, I have been hoping to do the same for Bon Jovi have them listed on their individual albums and not just the greatest hits album.
