ChartTools is a .NET 8 library with the purpose of modeling song files for plastic guitar video games like Guitar Hero, Rock Band and Clone Hero. It currently supports reading of .chart and .ini files, with .mid support currently in development.
If you find any bugs, you can report them in the Issues section of the repository. Make sure to use the "bug" label.
As this project is in development, it should only be used with charts with a backup available. I am not responsible for damages to charts!
For an overview on installation and taking your first steps with ChartTools, see Getting Started. A GitHub Pages website is available with detailed articles and API documentation.
If you like to contribute to the development of ChartTools, feel free to comment on an issue, submit a pull request or submit your own issues. To test your changes, create a new solution outside your clone directory and include the relevant existing projects from the clone. Changes to these projects will be handled by Git without pushing newly created test projects.
