    1. Can I use Pack Creator in Con Tools to not only make Album sets, which seems to be the ideal use-case, but any songs, just to load stuff faster? For example, make a pack for all Song titles that start with A? AA-AN, then another for AP-AZ?

     

    2. What is the max number of songs per list?

    3. Any other tips in using this?

    Thank you.

    I use the Pack Creator to organize all of my songs. You can make the packs any way you want. The limit for packs is size not maximum number of songs. The limit is 4GB.

    Oh that’s great…I can just load say all A songs, B songs, etc…and don’t have to wait forever for the songs to load each time? YAY!

    I have over 2000 songs and packs are a MUST!

    How do you organize yours? By band or titles or something else?

    All my customs are packed by band. All bands with only 1 custom are packed together as AMisc, BMisc, etc…

    Just got around to making packs as the load times were just killing me. But after watching all the videos and looking at the tools, I don’t see how to actually just add a song to an existing pack. You can remove songs using the Pack Editor, but it says to use the Pack Creator for adding songs. But that defeats the purpose to create the pack again, just to load it into USB and then that now take up the load time to overwrite the entire pack. Is there not just an easy way to add one song and then update the pack?

    Yeah, you can REMOVE songs and repack, but you cannot add.

     

    Sadly, you have to DEPACK into a folder, add into that folder, and create a new pack from what I’ve done anyways…something to do with how it creates the packs and the system reads them. Can’t be helped I guess. :-(

    this should be one of your suggestions to add to con tools! wonder if it’s even a possibility assuming someone is still updating and programming con tools…

    FujiSkunk is working on it now. Maybe request it from him. It’s doable – just a lot of work behind the scenes for it to happen.

    If only I had made a recent announcement to let everyone know C3 CON Tools development is alive and well…

    sorry perhaps i shouldn’t have made my last comment! everything you guys do on here is awesome. including all that nemo has done with con tools etc and it’s good to see the torch being passed…

    i will say this though announcing this to everyone could be a double edge sword. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_cheeky.001.gif” />
