Modding in Your Own Radio Stations

[Morthos]

I'm aware that there are 2 current radio mods on nexus, but I found that not even the 300+ one had a station I would listen to. Plus, I wanted to add my local stations and ones I use in ATS. So this is kind of a guide for anyone who wanted to do the same.

If I did get something wrong please let me know. This was a three day trial and error thing that I finally got working at 4am when it really didn't need to be...

Download:
Repak[github.com]
Repak Wrapper[github.com]

Unzip repak & repak wrapper and move the repak exe file from repak's folder to repak wrapper's

Make a folder inside repak wrapper named whatever you want with a "_P" after it. I named mine MyRadio_P so I'm gonna call the example YourRadio_P. Within YourRadio_P make a series of these folders: MotorTown > Content > RawAssets

In the RawAssets folder make a txt file called InternetRadioStations and rename it from txt to json. Open it in notepad and paste this code

 {
    "Stations": [
        {
            "Name": "Radio Station 1",
            "URL": "radio stream link here"
        },
        {
            "Name": "Radio Station 2",
            "URL": "radio stream link here"
        }
    ]
} 

Add as many of your own stations as you want. This will override the current radio station list so if there is a base game station you like you'll have to google them add that to your list. I'm unsure what Motor Town's AES key is to work with it in FModel and see those links myself.

Save it. Take the YourRadio_P folder and move it on top of the make_pak_compressed bat file. I don't think it matters which one you use since it's not a big file anyway but I used compressed.

Take the newly made pak file and place it in MotorTown > Content > Paks. Browse local files to find said location.
