espher, this worked perfectly! Everything worked great in Party Buffalo and exactly like in the video you linked! THANK YOU! I was feeling down about no more dlc from harmonix, but after discovering these customs, I can extend the playability of my Rockband gaming! Thanks so much!

Noob question that I didn't see answered:

I bought the Games on Demand version of RB3 back in March or so when it was on sale. I was unaware at the time of the wonderful world of customs. (keep reading, I'm not asking what you think)

I just managed to score a keyboard bundle of the game, brand new, for $22. I wanted it mostly for the keyboard, but the disc version and the ability to play customs is a big plus.

My question is this: Is it possible to install the On Demand version to one USB stick and use the other USB stick(or even just my xbox hard drive for that matter) for playing customs with the disc? I know I could just do the two USB method and uninstall the GoD version, but since I purchased it, I would like to use it instead of just having it sit in the cloud. Is this possible? Thanks in advance.

It's actually easier than that - the 360 effectively treats the EA disc version and Mad Catz GoD version as two different games.

If you set up a USB drive with Title Update 4 and your Customs it will use that if you launch the disk version of the game. To play connected to Live just launch the GoD version instead off your hard drive which doesn't even bother doing anything with the Title Update files on your USB. Makes it even easier than deleting and reinstalling the Title Update 5 to switch between having Live and Custom access to the game.

Okay I am new here - I'm glad I stumbled upon this treasure trove of new content ... I've read the guide and also read some of the many threads about custom songs -

I have just a few quick questions -

I've been rocking it out for a few years with my mates. We play every Friday night - Anyways, we have a ton of DLC. I thought in order to play the DLC you needed to be connected to Live ? How can I use custom songs and my DLC at the same time?

What about using our band / profiles ? Whats the best way to keep our band / stats / points ?

Thanks for everyone who contributes !

I would LOVE to NOTE that you don't need to download TU5 at all... You can manually place the TU4 into a flash drive... Just gotta right-click and create the right folder.

Note: Folder you gotta create is 000B0000 and should be created under "Data -> Content -> 0000000000000000 (No profile) -> 45410914 (RB3)"

Basicly...

"Data -> Content -> 0000000000000000 (No profile) -> 45410914 (RB3) -> 000B0000 (Installers)"

Once that done, put TU4 in the 000B0000 folder then take your flash drive to the Xbox 360 and copy/move the TU4 onto your harddrive!

I know cause... I did it that way! Don't have Xbox Live where I live so couldn't get TU5 in the first place XD.

Also... Wtf? What Rock Band 3 DLC requires you to be connected? I have plenty of DLC songs and they don't require a connection and they all work fine. (@ talonz).

When I go into my hardrive, then Rock Band 3, I cant find Title Update #5, but when I go onto RB3 it doesn't let me download it. Help?

I downloaded RB3 off Xbox Live, how would I go about adding custom songs? I got the TU4 and a bunch of customs on my USB (8GB). When i play the game they're in the setlist but when I pick one of the customs it says my disk is unreadable, which is odd for a game thats all on my hard drive.

I'm pretty sure that the on demand version of Rb3 as well as the new mad catz version of Rb3 have TU5 built into the game, making customs unplayable. Even if u put TU4 into ur flash drive it will not work. However, custom pro guitar upgrades for songs that are in RB store or imports will work.

So I'd have to find an older version of the game to play customs? Shit, that sucks asses.

Quick edit: Is it possible to play custom 360 songs that I got with maybe a version on PC?
