The Ultimate Charting Table (Google Docs)

[rbpwnage]

So Gyoo's charting table was a bit of a mess (no offense), so me and him decided to remake it in Google Docs.

The link is here.

Right now, anybody can view, but only me and Gyoo can edit. If you would like to be able to edit it, PM me your Google account (Example: [e-mail]) and I will give you permissions to edit if Gyoo and I think you can be trusted.

When more people can edit it, and when I'm not lazy, I may post a tutorial on how to edit the table.

[Gyoo]

First of all, we're gonna import my table on the google docs, what will take a bit of time since there's still a lot to do

OK, I've been meaning to make a statement about the song situation.

It's a shame that we haven't got a good selection of charted songs together yet. I know it's alot to ask of such a small community but we feel that before we can make a push and start contacting game review sites we need to have a collection of songs to bundle with the game.

It may have been a mistake to require charting of Pro instruments as these tend to be putting people off from charting. We understand it is a hard job getting these songs together with the high standards we require.

I'll be interrested in hearing any suggestions on how to progress with this faster to get a reasonable career together before the end of the year and hopefully sooner.

It is also clear than me Knapman and I haven't had much time to keep up with the latest changes and as such people have been forced to create their own lists. It might be an idea to apoint a couple of people to be in charge of keeping everything organized and neat. However, we need to keep focus on the main songs for the game and not keep drifting off and having loads of half finshed songs.

In the past we have tried to incourage charting by withholding features untill milestones are completed but I'm begining to believe this isn't working like we hoped.

I would like to ask what incentives would temp you to spend your time helping us chart these songs. We would like to eventually have a nice database of free songs that are charted well as both bundled songs and dlc. But right now that does seems quite a tall task.

Thanks
David

I think this is merely for convenience as a quick reference for what's not finished and what is. What may be a good thing to add to the table is a high priority key, that way people know which ones are needed for the game and which ones aren't at the current time.

The popularity of pro guitar authoring is increasing with the development of Rocksmith customs. It's possible that some new blood will be infused into the customs community and they can author pro guitar and bass for songs featured in Phase Shift, since I know they are and will be looking for free-use songs to hand around for use in Rocksmith, since they won't come with any threat of legal actions due to copyright.

The only incentive i want and probably most the comunity too, is to know that somwhere in the future we will have a working vocals mode, yeah i know you already know this, i cannot help but think that this mode is important because it would open the game for a bigger selection of people, many dont have the controllers/skills to play the regular modes but everyone can sing!(or atleast try).

That said ill do my best to help you get that high priority song list done before the new year, infact ive already started working on it (currently downcharting orphanage).

It may have been a mistake to require charting of Pro instruments as these tend to be putting people off from charting. We understand it is a hard job getting these songs together with the high standards we require.

I kinda agree on that, as much as i want to help, i as many others cant chart pro modes and requiring them right of the bath might be a bit too much for the current goals, IMO.

[Gyoo]

Pro modes need for most of them the tabs if you want to chart correctly, what is not always available, so I think the pro modes should be a kind of bonus if we can chart them. It shouldn't be a priority.

About the incentives and everything, I just chart for pleasure. I like drums (sadly I can't have a real drumkit at home but I'd love to) so I like charting drums (as you may have seen, I've made quite a few drums customs and there's more planned).
But this is also not the most difficult to chart. I think people can't afford charting lower difficulties, what is really boring, but we must find a way to chart everything "on time"

How many songs do you think it'd be good to have bundled with the game for the career mode ?

BTW, I think I've imported my old table. Now there's still songs to add since I missed some by creating mine, so there's not everything but almost

I'd like to chart songs, but I've been really busy. Plus a hurricane knocked out the power for a week, meaning I couldn't chart. I will try charting advanced and real keys on more songs.

I will be getting back to charting for you guys soon, ive gotten anew job which is taking up a lot of time. my motivation is really just seeing PS progress, so i don't know how you can feed that

all in all it seems mostly like the usual charters have gotten busy lately, i dont think any of them have abandoned the project, just have it on the back burner, I know JD was working on orphanage earlier
