[FINISHED] Bowling For Soup - Girl All The Bad Guys Want

[faint spear]

you can put that on measure 1

that goes for all the tracks

you can put your count phrase exactly where it is on the lead track for all the tracks

technically we didn't need 2 empty measures before the song starts but that's ok for now just something to consider next time

[dense slate]

oh alright, i thought its supposed to be 2 bars before start of the notes

ive read that somewhere i dont remember now where

[faint spear]

no, it's 1 empty measure before the song audio starts, sometimes the song starts before notes and we still may need an empty measure. It kind of depends though I've seen ODLC use a drum fill start in the middle of the count measure

apparently this is how Beach Boys Surfin Safari is, the count measure starts then the 4th beat is a drum hit

that's kind of an exception though best just do 1 empty bar before the start of the song audio

should never start COUNT midway through any intro audio though

it will cut off the extra intro audio when you start it in game if you do that

[dense slate]

damn, i dont know if i can move the tempo map now so it doesnt break

ill try

[faint spear]

don't worry about tit

or it

😆

I wouldn't try to fix that now

that's the kind of thing will be too hard to fix without messing up and redoing too much

that's why I said it's fine for now, just something to consider for next time

at least you HAVE some empty measure before your notes. just move the COUNT phrase location on the tracks that need it

usually that COUNT phrase can be global for this reason

I can't think of a reason to make it track specific

[dense slate]

so it worked

its one back before the music

also another question, when song starts and there is the fade in of fretboard, should fhp start the same way first note is placed or start from fhp1 and then go to the correct fhp on first note?

[faint spear]

Not sure what you mean but I’m fairly sure the answer is whatever the first note FHP is. There should be the first FHP anchor placed directly on the first note

[dense slate]

i played some cdlc where when the dlc starts its always on FHP1 and then when first note shows up it then moves to the fhp the note is placed on

so lets say song starts on slide 12->4

in some dlcs you see fret 1 on start of song

and it then moves up to fret 12

[faint spear]

Oh really? Can you tell me which song and I’ll look at what they’re doing in it?

Oh I thought you mean ODLC btw

If it’s CDLC that’s not necessarily something to follow as an example

[dense slate]

i only have songs from CF since LP edition doesnt come with anything

😢

i watch others on yt but i cant remember exact songs

okay checked 3 songs that are odlc on yt and all start on fhp same as first note

ill make that adjustment

[faint spear]

there are some still left to buy as DLC 👀

some that haven't been delisted

[dense slate]

oh really? i didnt check, everyone on yt said there are no dlc and i took it at face value

[faint spear]

yeah it's best spending some time looking at ODLC because you get an idea of how things are supposed to done most of the time

[dense slate]

im just playing songs i dont have from YT videos when plugged to my amp as casual cheapo

[faint spear]

the more time goes on, the more DLC gets delisted as most of them had a certain number of years that they were licensed

I forget what's still left but there's a decent amount

[dense slate]

this to NOGUITAR right?

[faint spear]

yeah make a no guitar start there. but then you'll need to either make a new section/phrase for that slide or adjust the next one so it's included.

don't put the slide in the no guitar section obv

[dense slate]

oh crap

can a section be 4 bars and 1 beat?

😳

or should i add back that middle section and split that 8 bar to 4

[faint spear]

I have sometimes made small section/ phrase for just a slide

[dense slate]

okay

[faint spear]

but idk if thats discouraged

[alpine pebble]

over 1000 DLC still up

[dense slate]

ummm, i dont know either so we sit in that together

[faint spear]

I prefer like you said to make the chorus actually start on the chorus

[dense slate]

if emmy dunks on me ill say its your fault

[faint spear]

when in doubt blame pavs 🥸

The later the better with DLC anyway, as we look to the latest RS2014 DLC to see how we handle things, since they honed in their methods a bit more by then

[dense slate]

okay, so far:

• i fixed slides on bass you mentioned (all of them) to end on upcoming note,
• made start fhp same as first note
• moved whole track couple of bars so there is 1 bar count in
• moved all count markers onto the beginning
• changed the bass section (and did same in rhythm main) i marked slide section as TRANSITION 🤷‍♂️ i guess that works
• there was some mistake in bass in the beginning with fhps one open note section was on 4 instead of 5

ill now change fhp that we saw in the video

should i add that slide from 7 to 9 or leave the strum version?

[faint spear]

What do you mean by this

[dense slate]

https://youtu.be/BVZPTJAlnlY?feature=shared&t=85

on lead guitar (and rhythm too probably) there is the part where he plays 5 with 1st finger then 7 with 3rd and slides to 9 with third finger

in current tab its 5 with first finger, 7 with 1st finger and 9 with third but with no slide

this is now

[faint spear]

Ummm depends if you hear it in the studio version recording or not

[dense slate]

and it can be like that

[dense slate]

i dont hear slide

but im no professional

[faint spear]

I’m not at my computer at the moment sorry

I’ll be back later

[dense slate]

alright

okay so before i run it, i just changed it on main lead, first 2 occurences one is like 30 seconds in, alt lead i left the same, so i can compile it with the fixes i did and you can try and see which plays better main or alt lead (i added that slide)

later when you are free lmk what you think and ill change it accordingly

hopefully most mistakes are fixed

the mentioned slide from 7 to 9

so you know what i meant

[dense slate]

I found the sinner, it was dell all along!
But yeah thats a cdlc not odlc.

[alpine pebble]

hey, for a 2020 chart, that's pretty good

(my old shit is not worth referencing fyi. it wasn't until like this year, when we actually pushed the new standards, where I actually started doing stuff properly)

[dense slate]

emmy, i love toten hosen songs so i just started adding guitar to "Zehn Kleine Jagermeister" in the meantime

Can i send it to you somewhere when im done with that too? Probably wont be great but some starting point.

[alpine pebble]

my DMs are always open, I'll probably just make my own version if I'm being completely honest though

It's hard when it's an old chart, because you'd be building on something that's gonna be getting changed when I fix up my old work

[mystic geyser]

I'm digging the Megaherz songs in there

[rugged rune]

if we can keep discussion here to the chart in hand that would be much appreciated 🙂

[rugged rune]

is this still being worked on?

[rugged rune]

@dense slate this discussion has been inactive for a month so im announcing that if there is no progress or communication on this by wednesday this feedback thread will be locked as this is an abandoned chart -- its been three days since ive asked if the chart was still being worked on and ive gotten no response to that either

[rugged rune]

@dense slate this your last notice that we will lock this post and consider the chart abandoned if we get no response here in the next 24 hours.

[rugged rune]

@dense slate due to repeated failure to respond to requests re: the current state of your chart and thread, this WIP is now considered abandoned and standard CF abandoned chart rules apply. Anyone interested in claiming this chart may DM me to claim it. This thread will be locked to future discussion until it has been reclaimed.

[ABANDONED] Bowling For Soup - Girl All The Bad Guys Want

[dense slate]

@rugged rune sorry, ive been at hospital for a while and i forgot when i came back. I have the psarx file ready with fixed volumes.

Ill drop it here in a moment

what do i do now

[rugged rune]

Bowling For Soup - Girl All The Bad Guys Want

[faint spear]

Would love to give it at least one more try tonight. Just a warning I may ask for the tone volume to be even lower 😆

[rugged rune]

i would second the tone volume still being too loud

[dense slate]

Which one? The distortion?

[rugged rune]

id start with lowering the volume of the distortion

the delay doesnt seem nearly as bad to me but when the distortion is lowered it could be that it still needs adjustments

ideally you want your tone to be a little louder than the song when both volumes are at 100/100 in the mixer

[dense slate]

Ye but i think my setup might be the problem. I have tried to get it as close as possible but maybe my pickups are weird. I got some "cheap" entry level ibanez guitar set on humbucker, tone 100 and volume 100 and on my end rn i have to make music sound down to 65 and guitar to 100 to make them even sounding in volume. Might be my interface too because i dont have official RS Cable.

Is it a lot too loud or slightly?

[rugged rune]

Slightly

[dense slate]

got it down 2 points, had to change version back to testing (might need to delete old one, i lowered version back from 2 to 1.XX)

[faint spear]

I think tones are probably good now. Definitely shouldn't be any lower IMO

I do wish the highway wouldn't light up like this before the first note. remove any additional FHP anchor you've got there and see if you can't get that fixed

[dense slate]

Hmmm,i can move count a bit, in charter each section marker automatically adds anchor point and i dunno if i can change that without switching to eof

[faint spear]

There shouldn’t be a section there

Section should start with the first note

double check what’s going on there

[dense slate]

I will and post a screen when im on pc

[dense slate]

there is nothing between intro and count so i dunno how to fix it

at most i could edit xml and remove fhp on count

[faint spear]

Yeah is that red 4 on COUNT a FHP?

Is this something that charter does? Force a FHP on the count phrase?

That’s gonna be incorrect if so

[dense slate]

it forces fhp on all phrases

every marker has forced fhp

[faint spear]

The count phrase doesn’t need one so wish it didn’t

Something we can mention to sai when they return to mess with charter updates again

[dense slate]

i could try to patch it

but i need to know what is supposed to happen

should it not have fhp at all?

how will fretboard anchor look like if there is no fhp on first measure? will it just start on what is next anchor? in this case intro marker

is there anything besides this, that needs fixing? is it fine to leave it like that in case of charter?

[rugged rune]

@faint spear

[faint spear]

I saw. I can't force you to fix something that hasn't been fixed in charter. it's a relatively small deal in the scheme of things at this point

there should be no FHP defined on the count phrase

[dense slate]

i did fix it in xml file

ill have a look into charter code later, here is fixed psarc, should i change it to version 2 and upload somewhere now?

[faint spear]

hate to add more feedback as you are trying to finish, but this one part on bass is pretty weird and should be fixed:

should go up to FHP4 here.....

and stay on FHP4 for this 5E...

because then we have this

so going up to FHP4 should fix that.

I don't remember these sustains being on these notes. def gonna wanna remove all these

you can leave the sustain on that 7E slide obv, then continue to remove all the sustains in this bridge

until you get to this note.

that definitely needs to be taken care of though those sustains are not pretty

and it falls under the general rule of thumb, sustains less than a beat get removed

lead: I hate to say it but I'd love you to turn the distortion tone up just a hair 😅 I think it went a little too far down.. I'm sorry

these A5s should really be in the same handshape and not show A5 chord name twice

same thing for that every time it happens in the song

[faint spear]

just turn it up a few decimal points, that should be good. and I think this applies to all the guitar tones equally so adjust them the same

those are my thoughts at this point. still really close but those things should def get fixed especially the bass sustains and the weird FHP moment

[dense slate]

Alr i will change

[dense slate]

Hmmm, i had it separate to see the last being not muted. But ill change it then.

[dense slate]

Got tones except for bass up by 0,4.
Removed the sustains in bridge.
Changed the mentioned fhp.
Removed the doubled handshapes on all guitar parts.
Hopefully i didnt miss anything.

[dense slate]

@faint spear can you take a peek sometime when you are free? sorry for ping

[faint spear]

no problem on the ping. Haven't had the time/ energy to try it yet. thanks for the reminder.

[faint spear]

gonna send a test file with my tone tweaks in a moment but there's some parts with octaves that need to be handshaped together if you can take care of those, I just noticed it

and here too

[faint spear]

did some adjustments on ALL guitar tones. had ctrl test it too and we're feeling pretty good about it so grab tones from this file and replace them, and if you can fix the handshapes on the 2 parts with sliding octaves that would be swell.

[dense slate]

you mean 9-7 and 4-6?

so it continuous here?

[faint spear]

yeah

little detail but that's the last thing I noticed before calling it done

[faint spear]

and the 9-11 octaves right after the 7-9 one as well

I showed it in my EOF screenshots but I know you have to translate to charter dont you

[dense slate]

yeah, just making sure ill get to it soon

[dense slate]

i think it should be good

imported your tones too

[faint spear]

There we go. Lookin good

Can’t final check it til later but if everyone is feeling good about it I feel like publishing it is probably ok. I think since you’re taking over the abandoned chart you gotta get a mod to help anyway though

[dense slate]

hmmm at start i think i talked about it with dell but dell is not red anymore?

[rugged rune]

I still am, but I would like pavs or someone else to give a final opinion before it’s uploaded

[dense slate]

yeah, that's why ill rather wait for feedback before uploading, if its all good ill put it on my google drive, when its done ill let you know if its okay

[faint spear]

Alright I’ll double check it all

[dense slate]

@faint spear do you have some other tips for this one or can we upload it?

[faint spear]

Shoot. Knew I was forgetting something. Will play test tonight or tomorrow at the latest

[faint spear]

Lead and Alt lead are good to go IMO. there is something worth changing in the Rhythm though... the prechorus shouldn't have these palm mutes IMO

and while you're at it, chord unpitched slides like this would look better with about a 16th note size handshape, then extend the unpitched slide out past the handshape

first one is obviously more important

I think the chords for this part are more like this too, what's in the chart now is a little overcomplicated

not even sure this is there

idk. I'd have to look at live footage for that

Alt rhythm - not seeing the point of the tremolo picking on the last note of the piano part

nothing like that is in the song

don't remember that being in alt lead, lemme check

oh right it switches to the guitar on alt lead

[dense slate]

hmmm, they dont really show that part in live i saw, but i think you can hear the change on the last 2 notes, maybe without the slide

maybe something like this?
or should i just make the second part all 1/8s with the 7-7-7 and no change on last 2 notes

i think i got all things you mentioned besides that part so far

[dense slate]

I ended up keeping that transition but without slide. And I think included the stuff you mentioned. Sorry for late, was fighting with updating my old pc to windows 11.

[dense slate]

@faint spear @rugged rune
I think it should be okay in current state.

[faint spear]

Hm whatever I just tried doesn't seem to have the changes you mentioned tbh, I'll restart the game but I'm fairly sure I have the right file and it's the same as the previous version

nvm I see them now Idk what the issue was, maybe multiple files in my DLCfolder

second time around you still have slide on this part, whatever you choose just make it consistent both times. My vote would be remove them entirely and keep on the 7-7-7 A5 chord like that tab screenshot I sent but at the end of the day I can't force a smaller detail like that

I'm like 98 percent sure it's just bass doing those C# to D notes and guitars do not do it

that would include these too

don't think the guitars change there until the next chord, the A5

little detail but there's some chords missing names, this should say D5

I think that's on Alt Rhythm but check the other paths too

[faint spear]

This stuff would apply to the Lead path as well btw

[faint spear]

here's the next line of this tab reference just in case you want it.

[dense slate]

Thats weird

Im pretty sure i changed it but maybe wrong xml is loaded

[dense slate]

Ill fix it sorry. Or maybe i missed one slide but im pretty sure i chcecked it. This is after change in new psarc. Ill see what i missed again

[dense slate]

I changed 0-0-0-2 to 0-5-7-7 as in tab and those note switch as you mentioned i removed also in all parts. Added chord names too in some places where it was missing.
@faint spear

[faint spear]

Tried all the guitar paths I'm happy with those. only thing I caught - and maybe it's not a big deal is - I think this slide doesnt happen on bass. seems like it should just continue the 7Es note until the change to the 5Es there after the slide

another small detail but I'd recommend accents on these last 3 notes

I think that's honestly it for me

[dense slate]

Ill do them
Thank u for checking on

[hallow root]

@dense slate I absolutely LOVE this chart. One of the tone switches threw me off just a bit but im a noob but great job

Were you the one that made this one too?
Idk where i got this from

this is the old one i had

[dense slate]

if you got it from customsforge a while ago then its most likely not mine

Oki while im at it. @faint spear
Here is one with bass changes

[dense slate]

@faint spear
Can you take a peek if there is something else that needs changing when you have free moment

[faint spear]

My bad, been busy with work and other projects. checking it now

[faint spear]

Still not seeing this update otherwise bass is good

I know I have an updated version though because I see the accents at the end

[dense slate]

Weird im pretty sure that slide is gone but ill check tomorrow when i wake up

[faint spear]

Yeah double check, and maybe send me a new one, and I’ll fire it up again to make sure

[dense slate]

[dense slate]

that should get rid of slide, it wouldnt let me sleep

Its my bad that i missed it, i put wrong xml into dlc checked it before adding accent and then i took wrong file added accents and ended up with the slide not fixed
I should tidy up my project folder

[wise fulcrum]

Thanks for making this, was really fun to play. Also one of my favorite songs. Looking forward to seeing this on customsforge.

[dense slate]

If you didnt spot anything weird on it i think its finished. I can ask ctrl to help me with it on forge.

[rugged rune]

@faint spear is it ok for him to upload

[faint spear]

Seems good yeah I checked the bass and that last thing I mentioned with the slide is fixed now, there's no slide like there should be

[dense slate]

aight i will make the final file with correct metatags and let you know

i need to backtrack a bit cuz i forgot how it was supposed to be

[faint spear]

how do you mean about metatags I'm not sure what that is in this context

[dense slate]

the dlc id and stuff, cuz the testing versions had weird id and now when its file for upload im just checking if everything is set up in dlcb as it should be

this stuff mostly

[faint spear]

oh ok.

that looks good to me so far

[dense slate]

does everyone use google drive for it?

[faint spear]

also right click one of the arrangements and do this

wait

[dense slate]

yes, will do, thanks for reminding

[faint spear]

this rather

[dense slate]

hmm i have option like this

i always click that

[faint spear]

google drive is fine. just make sure the link is public and everyone has access to it

sweet

[dense slate]

am i safe with using my usual google for git/yt or its better to make new acc for sharing dlcs

[faint spear]

great

that's what I meant anyway I think

[faint spear]

I'm not sure, I don't see why it matters as long as you don't lose access to your account that you use and can continue to keep it consistent for uploads in the future so theyre all in the same place for you and everyone

[dense slate]

just asking if anyone had issue with google locking their files cause of sharing dlcs, cuz you know its music and all

[faint spear]

I use a mediafire account but that's for a different reason, I pay for a premium mediafire for extra storage and links that automatically download etc

[faint spear]

I wouldn't think so 🤷‍♂️

[dense slate]

aight

[faint spear]

yup that's a mac though make sure you don't switch the 2 when uploading. the PC is the main one we want

[dense slate]

ye ye, just wanted to confirm

[faint spear]

it works and should directly download or did for me

[dense slate]

do i make it as new upload or we tie it to the one from the ramen guy

[faint spear]

yeah you need a mod to help you take over the abandoned one. that will be a better option and why we were so adamant and making sure the new version was much improved and won't need futher tweaks, because everyone will get notified who has downloaded it before

theyll make the swap and let you know and give you a link or whatever when it's ready to update then you can just make sure to update it to a new version number and make any other relevant changes to the record including authors notes, and a brief description of what's in the different paths etc

and usually something like this:

This chart has been taken over from the Abandoned User list and updated to follow the new charting standards.

[dense slate]

do i send dm to someone or put links here?

[faint spear]

@rugged rune should be able to help you

[dense slate]

oki

i enabled dms just in case for this server

[faint spear]

that's why they were asking and make sure I was good with it, because I think they played it too and were happy with it other than my last final notes

so we should be good now

[dense slate]

Thank you a lot for help and guidance, and ctrl and emmy dell. You helped me learn a lot, its been a while for this one song here but in the meantime I started learning to make other charts I wanted to make for myself and it greatly improved the way I'm doing them now with all of your tips.

[faint spear]

youre welcome sorry I wasn't always able to get to it fast enough, life gets in the way and it kind of slips out of my mind as well sometimes even when I'm free, I didn't mind the reminders at all

[dense slate]

@rugged rune sorry to bother you but do i need to send something somewhere? Like an application on discord or on forge?

[faint spear]

I haven't heard from him today either but he should be able to help once he's available, an application is kind of a cool idea though

[dense slate]

Aight. Wanted to make sure im not missing something. For application, forge maintainer can probably introduce some ticket/mail system where you mark a specific song that you wish to take, then its sent to the ticketing system/mod mail for checking and if its valid could click somebutton to change owner. If its all on the forge part if you sent it as specific user it would also have reference to who made request.

[faint spear]

Yeah I think that's a good idea. because otherwise, claiming an abandoned chart is kind of up in the air of how to contact the mods to make it happen. it's relying on people to do it on discord or something and even know how to contact mods

[dense slate]

i dunno, some concept in my head, no idea if its possible tho

[faint spear]

I like it

[dense slate]

so clicking accept or reject as mod would lead to auth link that when verified changes owner of dlc to requester in message

#ignition4 message
maybe someday

[rugged rune]

You can upload the finished product straight to Ignition

[dense slate]

so just as new item?

[faint spear]

I thought we were reclaiming the old ramen one

abandoned

[dense slate]

[faint spear]

makes sense to do so since it's literally an updated version of that CDLC, and will give everyone a notification of update for the new version

[dense slate]

do i change version to 1.0 then?

[faint spear]

You'll want to remove (Ramen's Ver) from the records title as well obv

[faint spear]

if you upload it as new. If updating the abandoned leave as 2

I'd like to see it as an update and claiming of the abandoned. that's why we need mod help. hold for that

[dense slate]

well i dunno then

[faint spear]

they have to transfer the record to you

this kind of thing is exactly why I like the idea of a formal request for claiming the abandoned records

less confusion

[dense slate]

ill just wait for ctrl to tell me what to do then, because for me it doesnt make a big difference
in any case this is me https://ignition4.customsforge.com/profile/theMaelstro

ill just link that this is the version i used #1379433889373880382 message

which is ramen version djpavs mentions

[faint spear]

A new better version will still be appreciated, but to me it makes more sense to claim the original record so an update will push to everyone who had the last version

they will get a little notification that says it was updated from V1.3 to V2

[dense slate]

here are links
PC: https://drive.usercontent.google.com/download?id=1UKdiuCWM8i6u4NUzsFI3t9IB3NAAyhEu&export=download

MAC: https://drive.usercontent.google.com/download?id=18Ua7-nxddVEnPmlua56WCxJAvbBKfdMb&export=download

[faint spear]

plus that way we have one less abandoned record and less duplicates of the same song

[rugged rune]

You’re right, I forgot

[faint spear]

no worries 😆

make sure when the record is transferred over to remove the (Ramen's Ver) from the title and make any other relevant changes to the arrangement info, genre tags, and author's notes to give info on what your arrangements entail, like say what the differences between the alt arrangements are etc @dense slate

and then obv change version number to 2

and update links

[dense slate]

GENERAL
Matched the whole beatmap to be on time with a song.
Split song into correct phrases and section for riff repeater, with verses and choruses set.
Changed some notes in verse sections for both lead and rhythm to match official tabs and recording more.

Updated all tones.

LEAD
Adjusted intro melody section handshapes to better represent how its played (From 3,4 finger to 1,2)
Removed piano section from lead before outro (kept it in alternative path), added the arpeggio on first 3 strings instead as you can hear it in song.

RHYTHM
Cleaned all handshapes so notes show up correctly.
Removed arpeggio from rhythm section before outro. (Added overlaid piano melody in alternative path instead).

BASS
Made bass more accurate and consistent across the song.

Adjusted lyrics line breaking in some cases for better screen presentation.
Fixed some syllable breaks.
Cleared some spelling issues and punctuaction.

Overall chart has been brought to 2025 standard with exemplary help of Djpavs, Emmy Dell and ctrl.

these are my rough notes

[faint spear]

what about alt arrangments

isnt there an alt lead

and an alt rhythym?

[dense slate]

its mentioned in lead and rhythm

but i can separate it

[faint spear]

oh I see it's under those

yeah maybe separate them would be my advice

[dense slate]

ill look at couple of dlcs to see how they write it

and ill try to make it written better, im just not too great with write ups

[faint spear]

it's not bad at all just giving my 2 cents

syllabe should be syllable btw little misspell there

[dense slate]

right

[faint spear]

here's one of mine

just an example, I think what you've got is pretty good too, you don't have to do exactly like this

[dense slate]

yeah i took a moment to look on one of yours and dell

[faint spear]

just keep it succinct as possible but with all relevant info, since most people either will ignore the author's notes or try to look at it quickly to see what's what

[dense slate]

ill slim down what ive had

[dense slate]

when people use the auto-download version for their links

[dense slate]

i learned from you because i liked that they instantly downloaded, so i gone to couple of your dlcs to see how link is done and i did it the same way

[alpine pebble]

Two bits you have to change from the normal ''copy link'' option you get from gdrive:

1. the start of it changes from https://drive.google.com/file/d/ to https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=

2. you then just have to remove the /view?usp=drive_link part completly from the end of it.

(if you wanted to save that anywhere if you ever forget )

or I guess since you've done it once now, you can always open up that record page and look there

[dense slate]

yup

and if i ever forget, ill just open one of songs i like made by you

and ill see how its done

[alpine pebble]

auto-download is becoming a little more common these days, just be wary of some rogue reports you may get from people whose adblocks cause issues and doesn't download the file - I've dealt with a few of those in the past.

i had my friend test it for me and djpavs tested here too earlier so i can stay sure it works
