Internet Radio through In Game Radio

[Donik]

I would like the ability to add 1 or more URLs in a config file that would stream music of my choosing through the in game radio.

Euro Truck Sim had this feature for the truck radio and it was a lot of fun/immersive being able to cycle through your radio stations using the truck radio.

That would be interesting, i think just being able to mabye use the steam workshop to share radio songs and having its own menu option on the laptop could be interesting. but of course you could just get a youtube tab of whatever you are trying to listen to and set it to loop forever.

Something like this ? https://twitter.com/i/status/1141673008463060993

Yup, pretty much like that. I don't know how much of a pain it would be, but the ability to be able to pull in your own stations would be cool.. Maybe through a config file or something if doing it through the in game UI is a pain.

I'd love the ability to be able to put in each of the Soma FM stations and then toggle between them via the radio in game. :)

Here's pretty much exactly what I'm talking about: https://truck-simulator.fandom.com/wiki/Radio_Stations

I have inplemented in the game already, it will come in the next few days, but for now only with radios i have added. Some radio links just don't work and giving players the ability to add custom radios can create some issues . For now will be added from me and if you want some custom one, just send me a link and the name of the radio to test it. If it works will add it.

I wish certain hacking sims that shall not be named would get this creative... Have you considered developing a hacking simulator?

[pickupsticks]

Oooooooooh. Firstly: internet radio implementation is aweseom. Secondly: a hacking sim would be awesome too! Or some kind of Zactronicsy game.

How about dark ambient radio stations?

In the save folder there is a rafio json file you can add it manually.

Thanks. They do appear now, but buffering is stuck on 0%. What stream format does the game support?
