I was able to get some charts that i have been trying to get for a while, but they ended up in .dat form. is there any way to convert .dat to .mid or .chart? thanks!

If this happens to be the .dat format for Guitar Zero, I wrote a dat->chart converter a while ago. Download here.

After it creates the .chart file, you should probably open and save it in FeedBack, just to make sure it's in proper format (I had a problem with a converted chart once and this fixed it... don't know what the problem was, though)

If you're not sure what kind of dat it is, post one or two here and I can tell you if it is the same format the converter expects.

Sorry to necropost, I was wondering if your converter would work with PS3 .mid.dat files, which I decrypted from an edat. (If you're still around that is)
