-------------------
FEATURES / CHANGE LOG:
v4.1.0
GENERAL
- NAME CHANGE! For many years this tool suite has done more than work with CON
files, so I'm dropping the CON from the name and just calling it C3 Tools going
forward
- Few quality-of-life fixes that you probably won't notice but were necessary
- All links to www.customscreators.com now point to https://rhythmgamingworld.com/
VOLUME NORMALIZER (NEW FEATURE!)

- This Tool is intended to normalize the volume of a entire folder of CON/LIVE
files by editing the DTA without modifying any audio
(Thanks to SuperRiderTH for the entire code for this Tool, I did nothing but
integrate it)
FILE INDEXER
- Added ability to search for duplicate songs (by name)
- Added ability to double-click on a song to send to Visualizer
- Can now send to Visualizer back to back without audio errors
- Can now delete (sends to Recycle Bin) one or multiple files directly from the
form
- Can now move one or multiple files from one folder to another, will automatically
add the new folder to the list of folders to be indexed
- Now clicking on the folders on the top panel will narrow down the songs displayed
on the bottom panel, can select one or multiple folders
- All "Send to" commands have keyboard shortcuts
VISUALIZER
- Fixed bug where RB4 to RB3 conversions would show double Multitrack icons
- Fixed bug where songs created with Onyx Music Game Toolkit would have keys/vocals
and crowd/backing tracks swapped
- Fixed bug that would throw errors with some songs from the RB4toRB2 team due to
leftover crowd_channels line in the DTA file
- Now properly identifies and processes The Beatles: Rock Band custom songs created
by the TBRB CDLC team
- Added experimental support for Green Day: Rock Band customs (in the hopes that
someone figures it out)
- Fixed bug where the song "Pearls; The Frailty of Matter" would not display the
song name correctly
PHASE SHIFT CONVERTER

- Fixed bug where songs with names that ended in ellipsis (...) would fail to
convert the audio
- Fixed bug where songs from the RB4toRB2 team would sometimes have the backing
track split into mono crowd and mono backing tracks
- Switched default behavior in Phase Shift Converter to default to song.ogg rather
than guitar.ogg
- Added option to NOT write HOPO threshold to the .ini file - this was requested
due to a Clone Hero bug - disabled by default for maximum compatibility
CON CREATOR
- Added ability to create The Beatles: Rock Band packages (inspired by the work
done by FujiSkunk while I was gone)
- Changed behavior so Content Image and Package Image default to be the same, which
makes more sense than prior behavior - can still force them to be different if you
want
- Added experimental support for creating Green Day: Rock Band, LEGO Rock Band,
Guitar Hero II, Guitar Hero III, Guitar Hero: World Tour, Guitar Hero 5 and Guitar
Hero: Warriors of Rock packages
- Fixed bug where CON Creator would freeze if you added files to the root folder
CON EXPLORER
- Added support for The Beatles: Rock Band customs (inspired by the work done by
FujiSkunk while I was gone)
- Added experimental support for reading Green Day: Rock Band, LEGO Rock Band,
Guitar Hero II, Guitar Hero III, Guitar Hero: World Tour, Guitar Hero 5 and Guitar
Hero: Warriors of Rock packages
- Added button on main form to make it obvious this feature exists since apparently
many people were not aware of it
- Fixed bug where changing song ID would cause issues with some songs... should
work as intended now
SONG ANALYZER
- Added ability to detect presence of Pro Bass and Pro Guitar charts in the MIDI
file and do some basic analysis. This is very basic and experimental for now.
BATCH RENAMER
- Fixed bug where it would fail to process songs by T. Rex
- Fixed bug where the song "Pearls; The Frailty of Matter" would not rename
correctly
AUDIO ANALYZER
- Fixed bug where songs from the RB4toRB2 team would sometimes have the backing
track split into mono crowd and mono backing tracks
PS3 CONVERTER
- Fixed behavior where Merge Songs option would be disabled when no existing DTA
was present, now it creates a blank DTA and allows you to merge songs from the
start
VIDEO PREPARER
- No longer leaves multiple definitions of mute_volume and mute_volume_vocals in
the songs' DTA files (thanks FujiSkunk for the code)
----------
v4.0.0
MAIN
- Somewhat severe GUI redesign ... enjoy it. If you hate it, you can change most of
it back by playing with the customization settings available
SONG ANALYZER
- Modified behavior for 'Batch analyze for unpitched vocals' so now it only
identifies songs that are 75% or more unpitched vocals (should reduce false
positives)
- Modified behavior for 'Batch analyze for unpitched vocals' so now it also
separates songs that have no vocal charts into their own subfolder
- Improved interface during processing of 'Batch analyze for unpitched vocals' to
remove flashing that happened before
EVENT MANAGER
- Added setting for Maximum Security and Relaxed Security under Options -> Lock
Severity - Maximum Security will limit almost all interaction with the form when
locked, Relaxed Security allows for adding, skipping, modifying queue, and similar
functions
- Minor improvements and bug fixes
FILE INDEXER
- Modified behavior to fix bug where it would ignore CON files with periods in the
file name (because Windows identifies anything after the period as a file extension
and not part of the file name)
CON EXPLORER
- Modified behavior so now changing song ID also changes the song short name (first
entry at top of DTA) to avoid file conflict issues - does NOT modify file path or
CON structure, just the short name
- Modified behavior so now when changing song ID the old (presumably original song
ID) is preserved in the DTA by commenting it out rather than removing it altogether
- can be used to retrieve original ID if needed
SETLIST MANAGER
- Added step that should prevent rare control character errors created by XML
setlist files with weird characters
- Fixed a few GUI bugs
VISUALIZER
- Fixed bug with image links not being parsed correctly due to change from http to
https on Imgur's end
AUDIO ANALYZER
- Fixed bug with image links not being parsed correctly due to change from http to
https on Imgur's end
----------
v3.9.8
EVENT MANAGER
- Added feature to select a random winner for the event (chosen from previous
performances)
- Added feature to show estimated end time of event based on current queue (uses
song length from Setlist file when available, estimates 4:00 per song when not
available, and adds a 1:00 delay between songs to keep things realistic)
- Add Band field is now a combo box, which lets you click on a drop down to select
from previous acts and also auto-suggests and auto-appends (press Enter) based on
previous acts
- Can now double-click on a song in the queue to send it to Play Now
- Re-arranged fields when entering a new performance for more streamlined process
- Fixed bug that would cause soft crash when clicking to play after editing a song
in the queue

SETLIST MANAGER
- Added option to use silent mode when drag/dropping CON or DTA files (under
Options) so you don't get repeated prompts when drag/dropping multiple CONs or DTA
files
SONG ANALYZER
- Added feature to batch analyze a folder of CON or MIDI files to identify songs
that have unpitched (# or ^) vocals - find it under the Lyrics/Vocals tab - option
to separate the files with unpitched vocals will move the CON/MIDI files to a
folder named _UNPITCHED VOCALS in the same location - this looks at both PART
VOCALS and HARM1/HARM2/HARM3 parts
- Fixed bug in analysis of songs that would not count unpitched vocals using ^ in
Harmonies

- Ability to specify encoding quality (1-10, default 5) is back as requested -
applies both when splitting stems (if not encrypted) and when downmixing to stereo
(always possible)
- Fixed bug that would sometimes fail when downmixing mogg files to stereo ogg
during conversion

- Added ability to add to queue only with a band name, without needing to specify
song and artist name

- Added ability to enable/disable the auto-suggestion text

view song details
- Can now double-click on the list of previous performances to view performance
details
- Can now pin/unpin Event Manager to always be on top like with most other tools in
C3 CON Tools

Save and Exit - no more 'accidentally' clicking on close button, Alt + F4, etc
- Other minor behavior improvements
VISUALIZER
- Fixed bug that prevented you from hiding icons once assigned - right-click the
icon for option to remove
- Fixed behavior so when moving an icon from left to right, or right to left, the
other icon is moved to the other spot, rather than old behavior that deleted the

any of these, you must be in RB4 Mode, click on the Rock Band 4 menu and then
select the export to add
- Added ability to export the filtered list of songs to .Setlist format (File ->

can then share with others. You can still export to PDF, Excel and CSV formats as
before by going to File -> Export As...
- Added ability to import a .Setlist file - if you drag/drop or go to File -> Load

- Added feature that allows you to click on a button and add the RB4 on-disc songs
and/or the different pre-order exclusive songs to your RB4 setlist - you need to be
in RB4 mode, then click on the Rock Band 4 menu item, and click on the songs you
want to add - these features are disabled until I can get the correct metadata for
the songs, at which point they'll be uploaded to the server and Setlist Manager

an earlier version
MAIN FORM

MAIN FORM
- Somewhat big GUI update with changes to make it better match Magma: C3 Roks
Edition
- Re-arranged tools to reflect how I believe they are being used and how they
should be used
- Audio Analyzer now has its own button (can still be accessed from within Song
Analyzer)

you for a CON/LIVE file - just drag/drop the file and CON Explorer is opened for
you

direction under 'Move button' or click and hold on a button for one second and then
drag it around

files, or copying a very large file, etc)

file it adds to the pack - this should help tracking down when a corrupt file
breaks the process and Pack Creator fails to create a pack
- Fixed error that would crash Pack Creator when the CON had a corrupt .mogg file
inside - this does not FIX the corrupt .mogg file, you have to redownload the song,
but it will no longer crash Pack Creator

- Made optional the step that removes all *.png_xbox files after converting the
CONs - this is disabled by default since it shouldn't be needed anyways - enable it
under Options
REMOVED

character length
- Now uses new Imgur ID - if you use Visualizer to upload to Imgur you HAVE to
update, older versions of Visualizer will no longer be able to upload

configuration files to the program and it sorts where the files need to go - users
accidentally adding compressed archives (RAR/ZIP files) don't need to worry -
RBtoUSB will extract the archive for you and add the files inside
- Allows you to view all important file information as well as song metadata right
from the program without needing to first extract the files
- Interfaces with most of C3 CON Tools' other feature sets so you can send the file

can be copied to your drive with one click
- See the included Help document for more features and instructions on how to use

- Added support for editing existing character names
- All of the above only for Xbox 360 / PS3, sorry Wii users
- Considerable consolidation and improvement of the code for greater efficiency and
accuracy

- Separation of the mogg file into its component ogg files is now fully automated -
this means it's now truly a one-click process
- Added multi-threading support and a few minor fixes and improvements
WII CONVERTER
- Wii album art now will be created at 256x256 pixels rather than the prior
(official) tiny 128x128 pixels
- Added option to change preview clip down mixing: can choose automatic down mixing

256x256
- Added support for converting from .tpl files
- Added support to keep intermediary .tpl files when converting to/from *.png_wii
format
- Removed support for extracting images from Rock Band 3 save game files - use the
now more robust Save File Image Editor

process
----------
v3.0.1
Added multi-threading support to BATCH RENAMER, BATCH EXTRACTOR and ALBUM ART

well as .rbs files to usable CON format
PS3 CONVERTER
- New method of processing the audio file that now allows you to pause/unpause the
game and access the practice sessions!
- Removed editing of song.dta preview start time that was necessary under the old
audio process. Now preview start times are as the song authors set them

v2.7.1c
FLAPPY C3 (Game? Game!)
- Added support for animated GIFs
----------
v2.7.1b
MIDI CLEANER
- Yet one more annoying multi-threading bug fix
FLAPPY C3 (Game? Game!)

- Fixed reading of configuration values to ignore negative values (i.e. no cheating
by setting negative gravity!)
----------
v2.7.1
PACK CREATOR
- Added advanced option to specify encoding to use with the songs.dta file. Leave
this on default if you don't know what you're doing
MIDI CLEANER
- One more multi-threading bug fix
CON CREATOR
- Bug fix caused by a stupid misplacement of one line
----------
v2.7.0
- Given all the recently and newly added (see below) features, it's no longer
appropriate to call it "Album Art Converter", so renamed it
- Added ability to extract textures from your Rock Band 3 save game file. Drag and
drop the file to Advanced Art Converter. Bam. Instantly get your character pictures
as well as custom art you have created in the game's art creator
- Added support for more texture types and expanded support to all Rock Band games
and expansion packs, the Rock Band music store app, and all Dance Central games
- Added ability to copy the current folder to directory or paste a directory to
search in. Just right-click on the folder text box at the top
- Added feature that will remember last directory used and default to it if it
still exists next time you run the program
- Fixed bug that would cause all images to be shifted slightly to the right
- Greatly reduced and improved the code for higher efficiency and accuracy in the
conversion process
SAVE FILE IMAGE VIEWER (NEW!)

- Found in Advanced Art Editor -> Advanced
- Allows you to view your character pictures as well as custom art you have created
in the game's art creator
- All three consoles are supported - see HELP doc for more information
- You can export all images by going to File -> Export all images or by clicking on
the respective image's Export image button
- Five backgrounds are included for your character. If you want to change them,
replace "bg1.png", "bg2.png", "bg3.png", "bg4.png" or "bg5.png" in the /res folder.
To export a composite image of your character on the selected background, right
click and choose "Export composite image"
- The code for editing and replacing of images is there, but disabled since the
game continues to say the file is corrupt. Hopefully someone else can pick up where
I left off and finish it. For now, EDITING IS DISABLED. ONLY VIEWING/EXTRACTING IS
ENABLED.
SETLIST MANAGER
- Added support for Rock Band Blitz song cache files ("Library Files") - Xbox 360
ONLY (not quite sure if PS3 has a cache for it)
- To import a Blitz cache, go to File -> Import RB Blitz song cache. You can also
add "blitz" to the name of the cache file and then drag and drop it. If you try
drag/drop without having "blitz" in the filename it will fail, since it will assume
it's a RB3 cache file
- There are some limitations: Blitz does not keep track of a few fields that RB3
does, so we don't have gender (defaults to Male), master status (defaults to being
a master), song length (will show as 0:00), rating (defaults to NR), track number
(defaults to 1)
- Fixed a couple of potential bugs for more stability
PACK EXPLORER
- Fixed bug introduced when this tool was strictly for Rock Band use which would
change the game ID of any CON file opened to Rock Band 3 by default if it wasn't
another Rock Band title - now can open, edit and save CON/LIVE files from other
games without affecting the game ID
- Made the Visualize button only show up when the program can find a songs.dta file
in the CON, otherwise it's not a Rock Band song and can't be Visualized
WII CONVERTER
- Fixed bug that would create a corrupt VENUE track, which in turn would cause
playability issues with some songs
- Added option to enable/disable the conversion of the venue from RBN2 to RBN1
(enabled by default)
- Added option to enable/disable the conversion of post processing events (enabled
by default)
VISUALIZER
- One more bug fix for using our default font. It was requiring you had Myriad Pro
default installed, not just the included Myriad Pro Bold. Fixed
GENERAL
- Fixed behavior throughout to avoid issues of files being in use when the program
scans for CON files
----------
v2.6.1
PS3 CONVERTER
- Changed method used to make the EDAT files to a more reliable and efficient tool
= less failures, more consistency, less clutter
VISUALIZER
- Added option to pick between Myriad Pro (default), Calibri, Tahoma and Times New
Roman fonts
- Changed behavior when our default font is not installed or accessible = program
will keep running and you can just choose a different font
- Simplified ability to use a custom font = create a text file named font.txt and
place it in the /res folder. Enter one line of text that says FontName=Name Here
and save it. Visualizer will load that and make it default, but you can still
choose any of the other fonts mentioned above. Make sure the font name is spelled
correctly (case sensitive) and is actually installed on your system.
MIDI CLEANER
- Fixed multi-threading call bug that would cause the program to fail (introduced
in v2.5.1)
- Cleaned up files being left behind when cleaning a CON file
ALBUM ART CONVERTER

- Added support for converting most game textures from Guitar Hero 2, Dance Central
3, and Rock Band: Blitz
- Fixed conversion from *.png_ps3 to *.png_wii
- Fixed bug that would count incorrectly how many files when converting to
*.png_wii
BATCH RENAMER
- Fixed bug when changing how to name the files, settings would seem to change
randomly
PACK CREATOR
- Added several new package thumbnails from RB3 and TB:RB textures
MAIN FORM
- Added ability to make form background transparent. Combine it with borderless and
hide the banner = free-floating buttons!
----------
v2.6.0
- Since it's been brought up so many times and the program no longer resembled Le
Fluffie in any way, we've renamed to C3 CON Tools.
MAKE SURE YOU UPDATE YOUR SHORTCUTS TO POINT TO C3CONTools.exe! That includes
changing the path in Magma: C3 Roks Edition under ADVANCED SETTINGS.
PS3 CONVERTER (NEW!)

- Customs come to PS3! (Requires jailbroken PS3, see included Help Documentation)
- Allows you to very quickly batch convert CON/LIVE files into PS3 format
- Allows you to merge already-converted songs with your existing customs (i.e.
files downloaded from C3's database)
ALBUM ART CONVERTER

- Increased in-game album art quality exponentially (about 8x the image data) - now
creates 512x512 DXT5 textures instead of prior 256x256 DXT1 textures when
converting to png_xbox or png_ps3
--- As of this writing, Magma: C3 Roks Edition isn't updated to accept these files
natively. Refer to the updated tutorial on the Magma: C3 Roks Edition thread on how
to get these higher quality album art files into your song
- Increased quality of images converted from png_xbox/png_ps3 (also noticeable in
Visualizer)
- Added support for most Rock Band game textures (besides the usual album art
files) - can be converted from *.png_xbox or *.png_ps3 to *.png, *.bmp, *.jpg
and/or *.dds. No guarantees are made that it will work with all game textures from
all Rock Band games, but over 3,000 textures from RB3 and TB:RB have been tested
and worked
- Added support for input images in Targa format (*.tga)
- Removed ability to resize images on the fly when converting from
png_xbox/png_ps3/png_wii - this yielded lower quality than doing so afterwards on
Paint.NET or Photoshop, and allows for otherwise overall better quality as
mentioned above
SETLIST MANAGER
- Fixed bug caused by old songs having Track Number 0 that would cause the
Information panel to stop showing song information
- Fixed bug where certain songs would have ridiculous rating numbers that would
cause the program to crash
- Fixed bug where files would not refresh when drag/dropping one Setlist after
having another Setlist already opened
- Greatly improved error handling and notification during loading of the Setlists
QUICK PACK EDITOR

- Added ability to work with loose DTA files without requiring it to be in a pack
QUICK DTA EDITOR

- Fixed bug that would result in the songs.dta not opening if you hadn't told
Windows how to open .dta files before
BATCH EXTRACTOR
- Fixed bug that had broken ability to use with Pro Upgrade CONs
MAIN FORM
- Re-designed the layout to account for all the latest additions
- Added ability to fully customize your experience = resize the form to your
liking; make the form be borderless; right-click on the background to choose a
custom background color or use a custom background image (or drag and drop the
image to the form); right-click on any button to change the background color and
the text color of the button; right-click on the C3 banner to make transparent or
hide. All of these changes will be saved and will be there next time you run the
program. If you want to share your customization, just share the main.config file
found under the /bin folder. Your friend can replace his or just drag and drop it
to the program
- Right-click on the background and select "Reset everything..." to put everything
back to stock
----------
v2.5.1
SETLIST MANAGER
- Enabled selecting of multiple songs in the song list for deleting - hold Control
+ click, or hold Shift + up/down arrow to select up or down

metric you could think of
- Added option to View Setlist Details feature to export the details to a text file
for sharing/bragging online

- Fixed bug when importing song cache con file in a specific set of circumstances
MIDI CLEANER
- Fixed bug that would fail to clean MIDI if using a non-standard time signature
AND having a problem at [1:0:00]
GENERAL
- Improvements throughout the program to handling of large tasks and animations so
you know the program is working and not stuck
----------
v2.5.0
SETLIST MANAGER (NEW!)
- Will parse both Xbox 360 (both the STFS package and the internal song cache file
are supported) and Wii (*.vff) RB3 song cache files instantly to start a new
Setlist.
- Gives you a multitude of detailed filtering and sorting options
- Can edit existing songs, delete existing songs, and add new songs
- Can export to PDF, Excel and CSV with a multitude of styles and options
- Highly customizable for a unique experience based on your tastes and preferences,
refer to the detailed HELP doc for more info
- To bypass the main screen and go straight to Setlist Manager, add -manager to
your program C3 shortcut
- Right-click on a .setlist file and tell Windows to use C3 CON Tools to always
open that kind of file, and you can just double-click on your Setlist files to open
them straight into Setlist Manager

- Added option to normalize featured artists (featuring, feat, Feat.) to "ft."
- Added counter to distinguish from skipped (already properly named) and failed
files

PACK CREATOR
- Several code changes to hopefully increase stability and address some of the
reported bugs
BATCH RENAMER
- Improvements to the code that checks for duplicates and allows you to delete
older versions of the same file, etc.
VISUALIZER
- Improved shortening of long album names and fixed bug that would scroll to the
beginning of the album name field
WII CONVERTER
- Fixed bug in Smart Folder Merge that would happen when merging songs with older
formatted DTA files
CON EXPLORER
- Fixed bug that would cause errors when extracting files in certain operating
systems
ALBUM ART CONVERTER

- Added "_keep" to the filename automatically when converting to *.png_xbox /
*.png_ps3
GENERAL
- Changed how code works throughout the program when reading DTA files. This should
result in drastic improvement in the ability to read special characters and
preserve special characters when creating packs
- Patched up potential memory leak when sending MIDI files to midishrink (and
includes fixed midishrink.exe thanks to raynebc)
- Improved how moving of files works throughout the program for better performance
and lower likelihood of crashes
- Fixed bug when sending files/folders to Recycle Bin which sometimes would fail
and leave the files/folders behind
----------
v2.4.4c
GENERAL
- Enhancements to the stability of all instances where a MIDI file is being
imported or accessed. This affected Pro Bundler's ability to bundle some files,
Visualizer's ability to determine if a chart had EMHX, etc.
----------
v2.4.4b
QUICK PACK EDITOR
- Bug fixes that would lead to failures when dePACKing the AC/DC Export Pack, Green
Day Export Pack and RHCP's Blood Sugar Sex Magik Album
----------
v2.4.4
QUICK PACK EDITOR
- Added option to dePACK packs into individual songs with one click. Each CON file
will retain the same game ID as the original pack (i.e. RB1/RB2/RB3) and will be
named Artist - Song. By default the CON files will use the song's album art file as
thumbnail, user can change this to use the pack's thumbnail image.
MIDI CLEANER
- Expanded ability to clean CON/LIVE files. Same behavior as before - drag/drop one
or multiple CON/LIVE files or use the "Browse..." button to find them. Can only
combine CON/LIVE files with MIDI files. LIVE files will be changed to CON and
unlocked/made anonymous in the process. No packs or pro upgrades.
- Expanded fixing of uncapitalized words to HARM2 (off by default) - before would
only check PART VOCALS/HARM1
- Expanded detailed logging to specify how many errors are from KEYS and PRO-KEYS
GENERAL
- Further enhancements to the code for stability and to remove some redundancy
throughout the entire program.
----------
v2.4.3
ALBUM ART CONVERTER
- Added PS3 support! Can now convert to and from *.png_ps3 images
- Minor behavior changes to logging
MIDI CLEANER
- Fixed cleaning of incorrectly formatted lyrics, now it detects all instances and
fixes them correctly
- Added check to existing BEAT track for back-to-back downbeats
- Modified code to ensure creation of BEAT track does not generate back-to-back
downbeats
- Added check for 1/x time signatures ... since these are so rare, user will be
notified as a warning of a possible mistake in the tempo map
- Expanded persistent options to include whether to override note velocities, the
note velocity value, whether to correct notes that are too short, and what size to
change them to
VISUALIZER
- Added support for PS3 (*.png_ps3) images for album art
- Changed behavior when reading the MIDI file to estimate if the file is Expert-
Only. If the program determines it most likely is Expert-Only, you'll be shown why
it thinks so and you can choose whether to mark is as Expert-Only or not. Songs
marked as Expert-Only through Magma: C3 Roks Edition will continue to behave as
they have in the past.
- Changed location of difficulty tier form to be centered on Visualizer's location
rather than centered on the screen
- Fixed bug that would require pressing on Harmony image twice to change from one-
part harmony to two-part harmony
GENERAL
- Improved tracking of which forms are currently open
- Improvements to code efficiency
----------
v2.4.2
BATCH EXTRACTOR
- Fixed bug that would lead to failure extracting files from RB1 era files
ALBUM ART EXTRACTOR

- Fixed bug where thumbnails were being extracted whether you checked "Extract
thumbnails" or not
MIDI CLEANER
- Added function to convert lyric events outside of VOCALS/HARM parts to Text
Events
- Improved code for detecting unsupported events earlier than 2 beats from the
start of the song and moving them
- Changed behavior so options are saved across MIDI Cleaner sessions
- Improved and condensed logging to remove redundant log lines
- Fixed bug that would cause corrupt track header errors in MagmaCompiler
VISUALIZER
- Added New Year's Eve theme (created by drummerockband). Visualizer will
automatically display this between Dec 25 and Dec 31. To access it before, click on
the lock and enter "newyears".
GENERAL
- Improved code in all instances where CON/DTA files are imported/processed to
expand compatibility with RB1 era files
----------
v2.4.1
MIDI CLEANER
- Added finding and moving of [music_start] event if it's earlier than two beats
from the start of the track
- Added option (enabled by default) to create a BEAT track for the MIDI if one is
not present already - this is highly accurate for most songs, but it may fail if
there are irregularities in the MIDI file (i.e. very rare but possible, mostly very
old files) - songs with 11/16 and similarly "weird" time signatures may need
thinning of the BEAT track to match the "feel" of the song
- Added cleaning of lyrics with either # ^ & markers at the start of the lyric, now
will be moved to the proper placement (as the last character of the lyric)
- Added option to display total number of issues fixed broken down by instruments
(on by default when Detailed Logging is enabled)
- Greatly improved reporting accuracy when using [M:B:T] format during detailed
logging (i.e. easier to find the problems in REAPER)
- Fixed code to ensure all tracks finish with an EndTrack event (just for a
healthier MIDI file, no changes in behavior for RB3 purposes)
- Adjusted code so a "clean" copy isn't exported when nothing is actually cleaned
in the MIDI
- Fixed bug that would not save clean MIDI to the right directory if MIDI Cleaner
was opened via command-line or Magma
- Fixed bug that would sometimes report wrong notes twice when the MIDI was using
running status
- Fixed bug that would report the uncapitalized lyrics without specifying the track
name
WII CONVERTER
- Added code to convert unsupported RBN2 venues into supported RBN1 venues =
working camera cuts and lighting calls!
- This takes place automatically when converting an existing CON to Wii format, or
you can click on 'Extras' -> 'Convert VENUE from RBN2 to RBN1' and you can process
MIDI files for songs you've already converted. You can do one or multiple MIDI
files at a time this way.
BATCH RENAMER
- Added option (enabled by default) to sort expert only songs separately when "Try
detailed sub-sorting" is enabled. For songs created with Magma: C3 Roks Edition
this is picked up from the DTA file. For other songs this is estimated based on the
charts found in the MIDI file.
BATCH EXTRACTOR (previously DTA EXTRACTOR)

- Expanded from only extraction of DTA files to include MIDI, MOGG and MILO_XBOX
files
- Can extract one or all of the file types above from one or multiple CON/LIVE
files at once
- Still uses all the renaming features present before, each file type is grouped in
its own folder
- For PNG_XBOX (album art) files, continue to use ALBUM ART EXTRACTOR
PACK CREATOR
- Several bug fixes and code changes to eliminate (or at least reduce) the "access
to folder denied" errors reported that would cause the process to fail
PRO UPGRADE BUNDLER

- Added some code to improve loading of some MIDI files that may not have loaded
before due to format errors
GENERAL
- Enabled running multiple instances of the program
- Enabled opening of MIDI Cleaner by drag-dropping a MIDI file to the main form
----------
v2.4.0
MIDI CLEANER (NEW!)
- Feature to batch process old RB/GH/FoF/PhaseShift MIDIs to get them as close to
RBN 2.0 compliance as possible via automation.
- MIDI Cleaner will NOT make an old RB/GH/FoF/PhaseShift MIDI ready to compile in
Magma, but it will reduce a lot of the time you have to spend cleaning it up.
- MIDI Cleaner can be opened via command-line two ways: use -cleaner as an argument
to open MIDI Cleaner, or use the file path to a specific MIDI file to open it
automatically. This also means you can do Right-Click -> Open With and select C3
CON Tools
- For the extensive list of features included refer to the Help in MIDI Cleaner
QUICK PACK EDITOR (NEW!)

- Finally one of the most requested features is here! This allows you to quickly
modify a pack of songs in two ways:
You drag and drop or browse for a pack, the program reads it, shows you all the
songs it finds. Select all the songs you want to remove, leaving the ones you want
to keep in the new package. Don't worry, you have plenty of opportunity to change
your mind. Then you choose
1) Edit DTA entries only - the songs will be removed from the songs.dta file, so in
game they will no longer show up. This is much quicker but leaves you with the same
file size pack
2) Edit DTA entries and pack contents (default) - will remove the songs from the
songs.dta file as well the associated files in the package. This is the preferred
method but takes considerably longer
- If you want to go a little further, you can also change the title and description
text, the package and content thumbnails (what you see in this program and the Xbox
dashboard), and the game ID in case you want to change it (default value is
whatever game ID the input file had)
QUICK DTA EDITOR (NEW!)

- Feature to quickly open and edit the DTA file (controls all metadata in the song)
- Drag and drop a song/pack file, or use the 'Open file' menu option. The DTA file
is automatically extracted and opened in Notepad, you make your changes, exit out
and click Yes to save. The modified DTA file is replaced and the song/pack file is
saved as a signed, unlocked CON file ready for your Xbox
VISUALIZER
- Added option to use custom overlays for holidays and other special moments. You
need two files, one called "theme_overlay.png" and one called "theme_button.png" -
replace "theme" with the name of your holiday or whatever you want. Place those two
in the /res folder. Visualizer includes six preset themes: Christmas ("xmas"),
Valentine's Day ("love"), St. Patrick's Day ("stpaddy"), Summer ("summer"),
Independence Day ("freedom") and Halloween ("spooky"). When making your own, use
the included themes as reference. Your files must match the dimensions of the
included themes and be .png (with transparency). Then in Visualizer you or anyone
you share the files with clicks on the lock and enters the name of your theme, and
voila. If you named your files "valentines_overlay.png" and
"valentines_button.png", the password would be "valentines" in Visualizer. C3
Authors must make sure to get admin approval if they're planning to use any custom
designs.
- Fixed bug where expert only chart that was also marked as X-Only in Magma would
show two X-Only icons
- Fixed annoying bug where every time you typed into the Name or Artist fields it
would always scroll to the end
BATCH RENAMER
- Fixed bug where some special characters would end up in the file name, which the
Xbox would not accept
PACK CREATOR
- Small code changes to hopefully eliminate the random crashes after building a
pack using a thumbnail from one of the cons in the pack
- Fixed bug where input files would be counted incorrectly and lead to incorrect
"duplicates" message
PRO UPGRADE BUNDLER

- Fixed bug that had broken ability to use pro upgrade con
WII CONVERTER
- Added option to replace non-working .milo_wii files with a working basic one from
an official song. It is not a perfect solution but it gives you some sort of camera
cuts and lighting effects, rather than a static camera. This option is only
available when doing Smart Folder Merge.

- Added option to replace the genre with the song's subgenre. Note that Phase Shift
does NOT support subgenres, so this replaces the genre with subgenre in the
song.ini file, not add both.
----------
v2.3.5
VISUALIZER
- Added ability to use TIFF (*.tif), GIF (*.gif) and DDS (*.dds) images for the
album art
- Added Halloween and Christmas overlays if you want to theme your Visualizer
images...these will only show up in the months of October and December respectively
ALBUM ART CONVERTER

- Added ability to open *.tif, *.gif and *.dds images when converting to Xbox/Wii
format
- Added ability to convert .dds images to usable Windows format
- New method for creating png_xbox images will generate better looking album art
with less artifacts than before
GENERAL
- Bunch of code optimizations
----------
v2.3.4
- Bug fix on the song.ini creation for the proper preview start time metadata
- Further fixes to the creation of the song folders where disallowed characters
would fail the process
GENERAL
- No longer using Tao.DevIL.dll or ILUT.dll (you can safely remove them if you
still have them, no longer included with the program files)
- Greatly improved image handling to avoid crashes and more efficient processing
- Testing different way to enlarge/shrink images, let me hear your opinion! Better?
Worse? The same? (= better because cleaner code).
----------
v2.3.3
VISUALIZER
- Added ability to display song rating (FF = Family Friendly, SR = Supervision
Recommended, M = Mature, NR = Not Rated)
- Enabled auto-loading of Author Logo at run-time. Name it "author.png" (224x33
pixels) and place it in the program directory. This image goes in the small
rectangle at the bottom of the album art.
- Changed behavior to account for long album names to shorten and add ellipsis
(...) rather than have the text go off-screen
- Changed behavior to replace "feat." and "featuring" with the much shorter "ft."
to save space and generate text at an easier to read size
- Greatly improved the SPLIT behavior for better splitting and text resizing after
splitting
- Fixed bug that would allow Genre/Sub-Genre to be moved up even when there was
existing Album Name text
- Fixed bug that would show both Rhythm on Keys / Rhythm on Bass icons when
importing a song that was compiled with the Rhythm on Bass marker in Magma.
- Other minor improvements

- Bug fixes on the song.ini creation code
- Fixed bug that would fail conversion if the song title or artist name had colon
(:) in the name (i.e. Ulrich Firelord: Breaker of Mountains)
----------
v2.3.2
- Removed some more unused / unnecessary tags
- Added support for reading/writing of hopo threshold (hopo_frequency) information
- Included custom c3.png icon to be used as icon for C3 customs
- Modified some other aspects of the song.ini file
WII CONVERTER
- Added preview time shown when sending to Audacity to the log, so you can refer to

- Added two C3 thumbnails. Use them when creating packs of C3 customs!
GENERAL
- Cleaned up the installation folder of all .dll and .exe files
- Other minor fixes
----------
v2.3.1
VISUALIZER
- Added ability to estimate whether a song is Expert-Only based on the contents of
the MIDI charts. This should be "pretty good" at determining whether there are
"some" reductions, not whether the reductions are done to any standard. Still,
tests show a 90%+ accuracy. If you want more details as to what is and isn't in the
MIDIs, you might want to use the MIDI Tester feature that will be available in
Magma: C3 Roks Edition v2 soon.
CON EXPLORER
- Fixed bug that would cause a crash when extracting a file via right-click menu.
TIP: You can extract files by drag/dropping them to your desktop/folder!
- Fixed bug where if you replaced a file by drag/dropping it, the form would not
reflect that changes had occurred

- Cleaned up how the song.ini file is created to remove unused fields and modify
some fields from old FoFix format to current PS format - thanks to AkiraNomuraBCN
for the help!
- Added C3 icon to each song archive and necessary line to the song.ini file.
You'll need to copy the C3 icon to your icons folder. Thanks to AkiraNomuraBCN for
the suggestion.

PHASE SHIFT CONVERTER (NEW!)
- Quickly and accurately converts CON/LIVE files to Phase Shift format - all the
features that Phase Shift supports that are present in the CON are preserved!
- Only step you have to do manually is separate the mogg into individual ogg files
- program can automatically send the mogg to Audacity for you
- Program can automatically RAR each converted song if you want to share them -

accurate
- All instances where the songs.dta file is being read (Album Art Extractor, Batch
Renamer, Visualizer, etc) should now be consistently accurate

- Improved the restore form feature - if you hide or minimize a form, click on any
empty space on the main form to restore it
- Hopefully fixed all instances of the code where user could not delete a
folder/file until closing the program down
- Added ability to open Wii Converter directly in the desired folder by passing the
argument as -wii -folderpath - future update to Magma will use this
----------
v2.2.2
WII CONVERTER
- Added option to clear contents of folder before starting to avoid duplicates/file
conflicts
- Fixed bug where preview start time would only show 1:0 instead of 1:00
- Fixed bug where song name was incorrectly determined for non Magma-created songs

- Enabled showing subgenre by default except in cases where it's the same as the
genre [i.e. it won't default to Rock (Rock)]
- Minor cleaning up
CON EXPLORER
- Fixed bug where changing package / content image sometimes would not save
correctly

on the log box and select 'Export log file'
----------
v2.1
PRO UPGRADE BUNDLER (new!)
- allows for easy and quick bundling of songs with their pro upgrade - drag and
drop the song, drag and drop the upgrade con or upgrade files, press
Bundle...that's it! The songs.dta and upgrades.dta files are combined, the song's
midi and the upgrade midi are combined, song is rebuilt as "filename_bundled". Your
original files are not edited.
- Added -probundler argument: add it to your shortcut after
the .exe: ...C3CONTools.exe" -probundler and the program will bypass the main

files
----------
v2.0.0 RC2
VISUALIZER

- Significantly improved code to better understand the songs.dta entries and reduce
crashes/failures
- Improved code for extracting the songs.dta and album art to make the process
quicker and more efficient
PACK CREATOR
- Improved (but not completely fixed) special characters not showing correctly

- Fixed pre-set filenames for packs to no longer have Windows forbidden characters
- Cleaned up how songs.dta files are generated: no more empty spaces, no more
useless comments, each song entry separate by a blank line

- Improved code to remove the "Can't create file because file with same name
exists" error
----------
v2.0.0 RC1
BATCH RENAMER (NEW!)
- Allows you to rename and/or sort your files in a batch!
- Enable 'Rename files' if you want your files to be renamed (enabled by default) -
can choose from four formatting options: "The Artist - Song", "Artist, The - Song",
"Song - The Artist" or "Song - Artist, The" - renaming works by grabbing the artist
and song from the songs.dta file for single songs (99%+ accurate?) - for pro
upgrades and packs, it uses a bit of logic based on naming conventions and patterns
(~90% accurate)
- If you want to replace blank spaces in your file name with underscores, select
that option before clicking Begin ('Rename files' must be selected)
- Whether you're renaming or not, enable 'Try to sort files' to do basic top level
sorting = sorting of the files based on established naming conventions - will sort
to "pro_upgrades", "hmx_dlc", "c3_dlc", "rbn", "ghtorb3", "beatles" and "pony_rock"
- Enable "Try detailed sub-sorting" if you want to have sub-sorting into "rb1" and
"rb2" subfolders (rb3 content stays in main sorted folder), and then finally
"packs" or "albums"
- Will also find duplicates! - default behavior is to append (2)(3), etc - select
'Delete older copies' to delete files with older "last modified on" dates with the
same internal file name (i.e. v3 of a song for which you have v4), select "Delete
exact copies ONLY" to delete files with same name, file size and "last modified on"
date (i.e. exact duplicates of a file) - duplicates are sent to your Recycle Bin
rather than deleted from your hard drive, so you can restore your files if
something went wrong
DTA EXTRACTOR (NEW!)

- Allows you to batch extract the songs.dta files from CON/LIVE files very quickly
- Provides several naming options so the files aren't all named "songs.dta" - 5
different naming options available
- Can remove spaces in file names or replace with underscores for post-processing
with software that doesn't like spaces
ALBUM ART EXTRACTOR (NEW!)

- Allows you to batch extract the album art files (png_xbox) from CON/LIVE files
- Will extract from single songs as well as from packs!
- Provides several naming options so the files aren't all named the same - 5
different naming options available
- Can remove spaces in file names or replace with underscores for post-processing
with software that doesn't like spaces
- After extracting, allows you to go straight into Album Art Converter to convert
your files
VISUALIZER
- Added ability to mark a song as having 2x Bass Pedal icon (click on the drum icon
to toggle)
- Added 'RB3 version' and 'Expert Only' icons to the Icon Panel
- Removed second 'Convert' icon and re-designed the Icons Panel
- Greatly improved how icons are enabled/disabled: double-click on any icon in the
Icons Panel to send it down, or drag and drop it. In the template box, you can also
drag and drop the icons from slot 1 to slot 2, and vice versa
- Added ability to read subgenre from song. Can only display genre OR subgenre,
click on the the one you want to show
- Added ability to overwrite font size...will always auto-size first, then you can
enlarge or shrink the Song Title, Artist Name and/or Song Duration
- Added ability to split Song Title or Artist Name into two lines - just type the
whole thing, then click on "Split": Visualizer will try to split as close to the
middle of the phrase as possible without splitting a word. Click on "Join" to go
back from two lines to one line
- Added ability to move the Song Title and the Artist Name - just click on the
arrows and move the mouse around. This works with both one-line and two-line names
- Added ability to change font color individually for each component of the image!
Just click on the color bar next to the name of the field (i.e. next to Song Title)
- Added ability to lower/raise the Year - it will be aligned to the Album Name or
the Genre (this is useful for longer album names that typically overlap the Year)
- Changed previous restriction so Song Duration can now show up to 7 characters
(i.e. 1:23:45) since the new Magma allows us to go beyond an hour
- Changed and improved code that reads song duration from songs.dta to take into
account 60 minute+ songs
- Changed and improved drag-and-drop code - can now drop an image anywhere on the
form and it will be assigned to the album art, and can drag and drop a song (CON or
LIVE) anywhere on the form, including on the previously-restricted album art box
and it will be loaded and processed
- Greatly improved uploading code: if fails will ask if want to retry, and can
handle user input
- Changed default uploading / saving behavior: default is now to just upload to
Imgur without making a local copy, you can check off "Local" to also save to your
hard drive, uncheck "Imgur" if you ONLY want to save a local copy and not upload it
to Imgur automatically
- Changed uploading behavior: link is copied to clipboard automatically but browser
won't open unless you click on the link
- Changed the tiering behavior to show pro guitar/bass/keys difficulties when
present rather than their 5-lane counterparts
- Added ability to read new metadata saved by Magma: C3 Roks Edition (whether song
is karaoke, multitrack, expert-only, etc)
- Added field to show you who the author of the song is (if they're using Magma: C3
Roks Edition)
- Visualizer will try to make an educated guess as to whether the song is official
DLC from HMX, from RBN or one of the GHtoRB3 tracks
- Added ability to interpret the contents of the Song Title: if the Song Title
contains (RB3 version) (Rhythm Version) or (2x Bass Pedal), it will automatically
select the appropriate icon(s) and remove it from the Song Title for you for a
cleaner image
- Added ability to save / load 'Visualizer Profile' = saves the colors and font
sizes for each component, so you can set your color scheme, save it, and load it at
any time. Once you load a profile, that will become the "default" values until you
close Visualizer (hint: you can distribute a custom Visualizer Profile with your
custom skins)
- Reworked the font loading process: if "font.otf" or "font.ttf" are found in the
'res' folder, it will default to that (hint: this can be used to distribute a
custom font with your custom skins), if not, it will default to the included c3.otf
font. If the chosen font is not already installed, Visualizer will open it for you
and prompt you to install the font. The program will close, run it again after
installing the font and you will be good to go...PLEASE NOTE that not all fonts
will work well with Visualizer's auto-size feature and GDI+ graphics drawing
method. If your font doesn't play nice, you can still use it but you must set the
size manually
- Improved code that verifies the song is not a pack - Visualizer no longer needs
to extract the pack to determine it has more than once song inside
- Added small graphic to let you know Visualizer is loading when drag-n-dropping a
large CON file (takes a few seconds)
- Changed the look to match the new "look"
PACK CREATOR
- Changed encoding for the songs.dta files - they now are encoded using UTF8
encoding and the line "encoding 'latin1'" is replaced with "encoding 'utf8'" - this
should resolve most of the non-standard character issues caused by previous
Packager
- Improved the option to use an existing folder structure (i.e. previously
extracted and prepared pack) - Click on 'Advaced' -> 'Use existing folder
structure' - YOU MUST SELECT THE SONGS FOLDER (i.e. "songs\yoursong\" - select the
songs folder)
- If you load the Packager, and there were previously extracted files, and you
accidentally click "No" (so it deletes and starts from scratch), your folder is
moved to the Recycle Bin rather than deleted from your hard drive, so you can
restore it
- Enabled changing the Content Image (previously locked) and switched order of
images to make more sense
- Can now drag and drop images to both image fields
- When changing either the Content Image or the Package Image, defaults to included
folder of images provided by C16 (THANKS!)
- Several major code improvements
ALBUM ART CONVERTER

- Several code improvements and general cleanup
CON EXPLORER
- Added ability to extract multiple files at once...select all the files you want
to extract, right-click, 'Extract selected files' or drag and drop them onto your
Desktop or other Windows folder
- Added ability to add new files to existing package either by drag and dropping
the files into the bottom panel, or right click and choose 'Add file(s)'
- Added ability to replace file by drag and dropping over the existing file in the
bottom panel (can only replace file with same filetype - i.e., .mid with .mid, etc)
- Removed "option" to add new folder since it was never coded to work
- File sizes now display in KB or MB, so it makes more sense than looking at size
in bytes
- Added option to change game ID from and to RB1, RB2 and RB3 - ONLY USE THIS IF
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!
- Changing game ID will automatically change Content Image to match
- Extracting package now creates a "header_info" text file with all of the useful
information and none of the useless information it generated before
- Considerable code improvements
- Re-created the form from scratch to break away from the constraints of the old Le
Fluffie DevNet controls and changed the "look"
CON CREATOR
- Added ability to drag and drop entire folders [on the left panel] ... files
inside the folder are automatically added as well. If it's a song folder structure,
the "gen" subfolder and those files will also be added...if "songs.dta" is present,
it will also be added
- Added ability to drag and drop files [on the right panel]
- Added option to change Game ID to Rock Band, Rock Band 2, and Rock Band 3
(default) - when changing ID the Content Image will automatically change for you to
match
- Fixed deleting folders ... before it would seem as if it was deleted, but was
still in the package
- Fixed deleting of multiple files: select the ones you want to delete, right click
on any of them, delete. Bam, works as intended.
- Removed option to rename files/folders. It was messy and didn't always work well.
Just make sure files/folders are named correctly before you add them.
- Major code improvements and clean-up
- Re-designed most of the form to break away form the old Le Fluffie "look" and
only give you what you need for Rock Band purposes
GENERAL
- now accepts arguments! This means you can create shortcuts with one of the
following arguments and it will bypass the main screen and go straight to that
form, which saves you time if you only ever use the Visualizer, for example. Valid
arguments are "-visualizer" "-artconverter" "-packcreator" "-renamer" "-
artextractor" "-dtaextractor" and "-songpackager". Only one argument per shortcut.
Add it to your shortcut after the .exe: ...C3CONTools.exe" -visualizer
- program can now be opened via command line with the file path to a CON/LIVE file
as the argument - will open in Song Explorer (now used by Magma: C3 Roks Edition!)
- Re-envisioned the "look" of the program - new modular look that will allow for
further expansion rather than the already crowded drop-down menu system
- Miscellanous code improvements
X360 LIBRARY
- No longer using x360.dll, but instead imported only the relevant parts of the
source code, cleaned it up, and fixed some parts that had problems...this may mean
further improvements down the line as I fix up the library.
