<u><b><!--sizeo:18--><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo-->Part 1: Building Your Custom Disc<!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec--></b></u></div>
Files Needed:
Rock Band Wii ISO (Track Packs will also work!)
<a href="http://www.gbatemp.net/index.php?download=1909" target="_blank">Trucha Signer</a> (Find a tutorial if you get errors about key.bin)
<a href="http://files.filefront.com/RipToolsrar/;10413633;/fileinfo.html" target="_blank">RipKit</a> (ArkTool and GH2 DTB Editor)
<a href="http://www.google.ca/" target="_blank">Common-key.bin</a> (Google it!) (This is for Trucha Signer)
<a href="http://asia.cnet.com/downloads/pc/swinfo/0,39000587,39002010,50001198r-39273032s,00.htm" target="_blank">Audacity 1.3.3 Beta</a>
A Hex Editor (I’m using Ultra Edit)
ISO Burning Program (I recommend ImgBurn)
Blank DVD’s (DVD-R)
<u>Steps:</u>
1) Find a way to get Rock Band Wii ISO on your computer (The easiest/fastest way = “Wii Dumper” Homebrew app, dump to PC over WIFI)
2)Open up Trucha Signer and click File<Open ISO (If you get an error, you don’t have the common-key.bin installed, Google how to do this for Trucha). When the ISO is opened, you will see 2 partitions on the disc. We’re only modifying the bottom partition. Click the + and then click the + of the “ROOT” Folder, then the + on the “gen” folder. 2 files in there, main.hdr and main_0.ark. Right click on each and click “Extract to file”. Remember where you extract them to, and then close Trucha.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Trucha1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
3)Download a custom song from <a href="http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9342" target="_blank">this thread</a> or <a href="http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15715" target="_blank">make you own! </a>
NOTE: If you find a custom that is a .chart file and not a .mid, <a href="http://www.geocities.com/leff527/Chart2Mid2Chart.zip" target="_blank">use this converter</a>. <a href="http://www.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45092" target="_blank">Instructions on this is here</a>.
Most customs don’t come with the audio, you have to find this your self. After you have got a hold of a custom and the audio, open Audacity. Go to Edit<Preferences, then go to File Formats. Make sure that “USE ADVANCE MIXING OPTIONS” is selected (Under “When export track”)
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Audacity1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
<b>NOTE:</b> Rock Band Wii .mogg files are divided like so:
Channel 1: Drums
Channel 2: Drums
Channel 3: Drums
Channel 4: Drums
Channel 5: Bass guitar
Channel 6: Guitar
Channel 7: Guitar
Channel 8: Vocals
Channel 9: Everything else
Now, unless you have the master track for your song (every instrument on its own channel), put your audio file (mp3/wav/etc.) on Channel 9. That way, if you mess up when you are playing, the audio will still be there.
4)To do this, click Track<Add New<Audio Track (or Ctrl+Shift+N) and do this 8 times. Then click File<Import<Audio and find your audio file of the custom. Split the audio into a mono track by clicking the box with the name of the song (it has a down arrow), then click “Split Stereo Track”. Click the little X on one of them, then click the name again and then click Mono.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Audacity22.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
<b><!--coloro:red--><span style="color:red"><!--/coloro-->IMPORTANT!!:<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> When you download a custom, it should give you an offset from where you downloaded it from. You’re going to have to add silence to this so that the music and chart are insync. To do this you need to find out how long the offset is in seconds, then go to Generate<Silence and type in how many seconds of silence. You may want to do this now, or your chart will be off sync in the game. You also need to add 2.95 seconds at the beginning for the video in the background. Trust me, this is a pain in the ass after all this work and then you find out the tracks are out of sync.</b>
5) Now click on File<Export. MAKE SURE THE SAVE TYPE AS BOX IS WAV!!!!
When it comes up with the “Advanced Mixing Options”, make sure there are 9 channels, and then click OK.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Audacity4.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Now open up the wav in Audacity and this time Export it. MAKE SURE THE SAVE TYPE AS BOX THIS TIME IS OGG!!!!
Again, when it comes up with the “Advanced Mixing Options”, make sure there are 9 channels, and then click OK.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Audacity5.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
6) Look at the size of the OGG. Write it down or something. You’re going to have to find a song where your ogg and mid are of equal or less size than the one in Rock Band. (So you won’t be able to put that 22 minute Dream Theatre song in.) Let’s do that now!
7) Open up ArkToolGui.exe. Find where your .ark and .hdr files are (they better be in the same folder!) by clicking File>Open. Click the plus on “songs”. Some songs are in the folder “songs_regional”.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/ArkTool1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
<b>NOTE:</b> Inside the “songs” folder is all the songs in it’s own folder. Inside each folder of a song are a .MID and a .MOGG. These are the only files that are going to be modified in that songs folder. <!--coloro:red--><span style="color:red"><!--/coloro-->You need to find a song in which the mogg and mid are of equal or less size!!<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->
Once you find a song that is of the qualification above, right click on the .mogg file and click “Extract”
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/ArkTool2.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
8) Open up your Hex Editor and open up both your ogg you made before and the mogg you just extracted. Go to the mogg first. If your Hex editor has a Find feature, use it to find the first instance of:“OggS” (without quotes).
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Hex1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Copy everything before the first instance of OggS.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Hex2.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Go to your ogg and paste what you just copied at the beginning of your ogg, then click save.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Hex3.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Go to your ogg and change the file extension to “mogg” (without quotes).
9) Go to ArkTool and go to the song you are going to replace with your custom. Right click on the .mid and click replace. Replace the .mogg file as well.
<b><!--coloro:green--><span style="color:green"><!--/coloro-->Optional: If you want to change the name of the song ingame, follow step 10, 11 and 12<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--></b>
10) In the “songs” folder (or the “songs_regional” folder if you are using songs from there), there should be a “gen”. Inside “gen” there is a songs.dtb file in there (don’t worry about the other 2 .dtb files). Right click and extract it. <b>KEEP ARKTOOL OPEN!!</b>
11) Open up GH2 DTB Editor (GH2DTBEdit_unencrypted.exe). Click File>Open and then find where you extracted the songs.dtb file. Once opened, find the song that you put you custom into. Click the plus next to that song and then do this to name and artist. Click on the songs name and in the box on the right, change it to the Customs Name. Do the same for artist.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/DTB1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Save it and then close it.
12) In ArkTool, replace the file songs.dtb with the one you just saved. Your songs will now have the right name in the game!
13) Go to File>Save in ArkTool. You are almost done! Close ArkTool.
14) Go to Trucha Signer and open up the ISO. Replace the main_0.ark and main.hdr with the ones you have modified. Now right click on the partition we have been modifying and click “Trucha Sign It!”.
<img src="http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff331/Mrkinator/Trucha2.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Now close Trucha Signer.
15) BURN YOUR ISO!! YOU ARE DONE PART 1!!

<b><div align="center">FAQ's</div></b>
Q. Hey, send me a link to a Custom Disc torrent/download!
A. I cannot send you a link because I'm the first one to (or one of the first) to make Rock Band Customs. I also won't post any of the one's I've made because they are experimental.
Q. One of the customs I have downloaded is a .chart file.
A. <a href="http://www.geocities.com/leff527/Chart2Mid2Chart.zip" target="_blank">Use this converter</a>

5) Go to the SoftChip.zip and copy SoftChip folder inside it (the one with the boot.dol, icon.png and meta.xml inside it). Go back to the apps folder and paste the SoftChip folder.
6) Pop your SD Card in your Wii and go to The Homebrew Channel. Boot up the cIOS installer. Use the D-PAD left or right to change it to this:

7) Once it’s done installing, go to SoftChip in The Homebrew Channel. Make sure you boot under IOS 232 (follow the instructions it says.) Pop in your disc and press A.

<b><div align="center">FAQ's</div></b>
Q. Hey, send me a link to a Custom Disc torrent/download!
A. I cannot send you a link because I'm the first one to (or one of the first) to make Rock Band Customs. I also won't post any of the one's I've made because they are experimental.
Q. One of the customs I have downloaded is a .chart file.
A. <a href="http://www.geocities.com/leff527/Chart2Mid2Chart.zip" target="_blank">Use this converter</a>
