Enhancement Request: write out bundled song CON w/pro

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Option to write out the ENTIRE CON with all tracks
(i.e. just merging PRO track into the existing CON)

A user said there is a way to make the editor do this already, but it seemed 
like a exploit, not a feature.

OK, I want to do this with ALL my pro files. i.e. combine the PRO files into a 
new CON file. You have oversimplified this, so let me review your steps so I 
understand:

1. Take the CON file without PRO injected and extract it. (songs.dta, song.mid, 
song.mogg, song milo.xbox, song_keep png.xbox). There should also be a 
directory structure, not just the files.

2. I assume this means "complete your PRO upgrade file in the ziggy editor"?

3. I am not following this step at all. I am using v65. Are you stating that on 
the TRACK EDITOR tab you should DRAG the completed pro tracks from the PRO side 
over to the 5 button side? Or are you saying to drag all the 5 button tracks 
over to the PRO side?

4. Do you mean "create a new CON package" from the Song Library tab?

Just a little addon:

I've had weird experiences with customs and custom upgrades, where the song id 
would match but the upgrade wouldn't show up in game.

Looking at a custom upgrade from C3 showed me that you can actually put the pro 
tracks in the original midi and you don't need an 'upgrade'. The process I use 
is -

1) Extract custom song into its bare parts
2) Make upgrade
3) In Ziggy's newer versions, you can merge a pro midi and a 5tar midi, it 
helps a lot so using that simplifies a lot.
4) Repackage with the merged midi

Also you have to make sure to add lines in the songs.dta for real_guitar and 
real_bass so that they don't show NO PART in game.

I think if you DRAG the CON into the editor to start the process, and it has a 
non-numeric SONG ID, it should visually flag that you did this and allow the 
option of BUILD producing a new CON and/or the PRO upgrade.

This is no longer needed with the C3con tool which does and excellent job of 
bundling, even correcting for the wrong songid in updates.dta
