FoF - Song Manager 3.24

[sebku]

Perfect!

Been wondering if you would update the Song Manager to the new changes. I guess, now I have my answer.
Thank you very much for the hard work.

EDIT:
Would it be possible to make a "Create "Genre/Year/Decade/etc. Collection""? I've listed a copy of all the updated RB-Songs in one directory and sorted them with the new sorting option and as great a feature as this is, with over 500 songs it is very "unübersichtlich" (not easy too use/not very clear, sorry can't find the appropriate english words). Sorting the songs in subfolders by genre/decade/etc. would be a big help.

Version 3.21:
- added slider
- label.png and album.png togehter in tab "pictures"





@sebku: hu. i'm try to make it possible

Great program, really useful for sorting out my custom songs. One slight issue though: when you input year/album/genre info, it just seems to copy the year into each of these. I tried over writing this, but it just comes back. Also, it would be cool if the 'band difficulty' could be automatic, because surely it is an average of the other instruments?

Did you know that the difficulties can have be 0 as well?
if it doesn't exist it stand N/A if there's a 0 it'll show 5 empty circles.
Oh and since some songs only have guitar could you add toggle buttons above as well so you get N/A on bass and drums?

For me too. Especially bad when the infos (as in the updated rb-packs) are already in the file, they are overwritten indepedent from what you change. CAUTION!

Version 3.22:
- added "Tracklist Function" - "Change HopoFreq"
- fixed slider of difficulties (-1 ... 6)
- fixed save album/genre

If you change the difficulty to -1 the entry in the song.ini will be delete so that there is N/A.

@sebku: Sry.

[sebku]

No problem. It did not affect me, since I was warned and then tried it. Thanks for the new version. Am gonna try it in a second. ;))

EDIT:
Still changes the album to year, genre to album and comment to genre if u change anything. But at least the information does not get lost, ;)

A little detail: The counter tool are messed up, it always show the result as "label.png", and some of the submenu items are not counting the thing that supposed to do.

By the way can you add the support to "crowd.ogg" as FoFix supports it now?

[blazingamer]

Could you add a tab in pictures for song background? The file should be called background.png.

Also could you make the difficulty slides horizontal, right now there is a lot of empty space to the right of them in the window and it would look more appealing and filling if it was left-to-right instead of top-to-bottom. I'm sorry if this has already been done but I'm waiting until all these new functions are working 100% properly before I get the newest version.

Version 3.23:
- added background.png in tab pictures
- fixed save album/genre (again ^_^)
- fixed counter
- fixed slider (left-to-right)

[sebku]

yay! Seems to be working fine. THANKS

EDIT:
If the title name line (as goes for artist, maybe for all other) in the song ini begins with a big letter and you change something it will add a new line with a small letter. If you reload the directory it will only show the unchanged lines. (Haven't yet checked it in FoFix but am predicting the changes won't be seen there either.)

Example:

before:
Artist = Aerosmith
Name = Walk This Way

after:
Artist = Aerosmith
Name = Walk This Way
artist = Aerosmith (feat. Run DMC)
name = Walk This Way (GH Version)

EDIT 2:
Okay, in FoFix the changed lines are visible.

Drums and preview oggs counters are still screwed up

[sebku]

If you change anything the difficulty setting will automatically take the difficulty of the guitar (or band, I am not sure which of the two) and then apply that difficulty to the others (drums, bass, etc.). They are always on the same setting after saving.

[TypusMensch]

Hu, thats not my day ^^
I post it tomorrow.

Version 3.24:
- fixed counter
- fixed save difficulties

GREAT Program man. I wish I had seen it before undergoing the ULTRA-MEGA RB Project :)

In the meantime, can you get with MFH about you mid parser? It might help it figure out what is going on. I posted a list on page 13 of all the songs in the RB catalog that are not displaying lyrics in FoFiX. I checked the unedited mids in CakeWalk Sonar 7 PE and on the PART VOCALS there were no lyrics shown for those songs. But when I view them in your mid parser, the lyrics are there.

Keep up the great work man.
