So I downloaded the export from http://www.keepitfishy.com/customscreat … htm#export and decompressed it. I now have a 1.4gig file. Does it go into RB3 just like a _rb3con or are there special instructions?

[The T]

Yeah, it’s an con file.

 

(Psst. Try it before you ask questions!)

[blackheartstar]

I would have tried it first if I could and I’m not sure when I’ll get a chance ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_wink.gif” /> Just wanted to make sure I had the idea just in case there is no internet when I do. Also thank you

This is somewhat off topic, but related. I had previously downloaded and played several Beatles songs. Following the instructions at http://www.keepitfishy.com/customscreat … htm#export, I will delete all my previous Beatles songs and replace them with the export.

 

So my question is should I expect my song scores and ratings to be retained? Not that it is a big deal at all, just curious what the expectations should be. If anyone is curious, I’ll post my end results tomorrow.

 

And BTW, I so totally am a massive fan of ALL the folks who contributed to the Beatles export project. Major win and brings to fruition something that I’ve desired since RB3 was released. Well done, everyone.

[TrojanNemo]

thanks.

 

that being said, the song IDs changed for all the songs, so your scores will be lost.

 

I also decided against continuing to provide the big export pack, since it became evident the songs have a lot of problems and now that i’m fixing them, I can’t keep the big export updated.

 

there’s an update coming tomorrow morning with fixes to over 10 songs and 4 pro guitar / bass upgrades.

[Sensei]

well, don’t I have timing? Just finished injecting into my flash drive. I understand your reasoning, but the convenience to the end-user with a big export file is pretty high. I’d very much appreciate an update to the big pack, perhaps one big update when you are satisfied with the final versions of the songs.

 

And no big deal on the scores. It was more curiosity than anything else. For me having a score only means I can sort as having played the song. Oh darn, I’ll just have to play again. Shucks. (grins)

by the time i’m done “fixing” all the songs entirely you probably won’t be playing rock band.

 

instead of spending time on constantly updating and reuploading packs, my efforts are going to go towards a packaging tool that will allow you to make your own pack at home, so I don’t have to, and you don’t have to constantly download 1GB+ files, just download the new song, rebuild pack at home, bam. hopefully I can figure this out

[The T]

Personally, I thought the big pack was a bad idea that offered only benefit: easily being able to “delete all”. Having one-file-per-song makes it much easier to keep each file up to date.

 

The only suggestion I’d make is each time you update a file, give it a version number; toss v2, v3, etc. onto the end so we can always know if our file is up to date.

In my case I doubt that very much lol

 

I’ll probably be playing Rock Band long after you’re done updating/creating songs ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_cheeky.001.gif” />

 

Also thank you for everything you’ve done!

That does sound most excellent; makes sense for both developer and users. Can’t wait to give it a try.

[TrojanNemo]

and it is now available:

 

Instead of providing you with a big pack that takes forever to download and is nearly impossible to maintain up-to-date,

I created a packager that will take the individual songs, and through a bit of magic (but mostly coding in C#) will automatically create a package for you.

You can use this to combine all the songs, or the individual albums, or whatever you prefer.

This is a skinned version of the Packager found in my Le Fluffie for RB3. If you want more than just a packager, I suggest you grab that here.

If you only want to package songs (this will do Beatles and anything else you throw at it), this is a much lighter program.

Hi…can someone help me and tell me why this packager is needed???

 

Can I not just inject the individual songs using Buffalo like I have done with other customs and GHtoRB3 files???

Yes, you can. Some people wanted a single large package or album-specific packages, so this utility just allows them to restructure their packages as they see fit.

[begad]

I see…thanks for the info…

[LPfan13]

just a quick question about that is it possible to join sgt peppers and with a little help together it would make those complete as it feels playing them together feels more right.
