Radio station hollywood version 2


!!!!!!In order for this mod to work YOU MUST EDIT YOUR radio.ini FILE!!!!!!!

!!!!!!It absolutely WILL NOT WORK if you do not edit this file!!!!!!!!!!!



Old time radio in SH4! This mod has 90+ files of old time radio from the war years. Comedy, drama, and mystery, just tune in to either frequency 300 for Radio Hollywood or 310 for Radio Los Angeles on the 1st of every month at 20:00.

Each station will have a different broadcast, and both stations broadcast for the duration of the war.

In order for this mod to be compatible with other radio station mods, you must edit your own radio.ini file so that you don't overwrite it and kill other stations you may have added. IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS, THIS MOD WILL NOT WORK. You can find radio.ini in /data/sound/radio. Just open it with notepad and it can be edited.

One radio station originates in Hollywood, the other in Los Angeles, both will be heard anywhere on the map.

Simply copy the section below and paste it into your radio.ini at the bottom.

**********copy below ***********
;RADIO HOLLYWOOD MOD
;============================
[CHANNEL]
Name=Hollywood
Folder=Hollywood
Freq=300
Antenna=01.01.1930-01.01.2000:34.09,-118.32:100000

[CHANNEL]
Name=Los Angeles
Folder=Los Angeles
Freq=310
Antenna=01.01.1930-01.01.2000:34.05,-118.22:100000
;RADIO HOLLYWOOD MOD
;============================

***********copy above **********


If you already have a radio station in the radio.ini file with Freq=300 or 310 or you want different frequencies for whatever reason, just change the Freq= number to unused frequencies. Leave at least 10 unused frequencies in between stations. Frequencies range from 1 to 1000.

Once you have the radio.ini edited, you can install the mod either with JSGME or manually.

Please be aware that if you use JSGME to install this mod, it will double the size this mod takes up on your hard drive because JSGME keeps a backup of the mod files in the mod folder. This will cause the mod to take up about 1 gigabyte of space.

If you still want to use JSGME to install this mod, you still have to edit the radio.ini yourself. THIS MOD IS LARGE!!!!! IT COULD TAKE 2 MINUTES OR MORE TO ENABLE USING JSGME!!!!! BE PATITENT!!!

If you want to do it by hand and save space, 1st make sure you have edited the radio.ini in /data/sound/radio as specified above.

2nd, place the Hollywood folder in /data/sound/radio.

3rd, place the Los Angelese folder in /data/sound/radio.

That's all there is to it. Now all you have to do is turn on the radio on the 1st day of any month and tune into frequency 300 or 310 at 20:00. A different broadcast is made on each station on the 1st of every month at 20:00 for the entire war.

If you need to uninstall this mod, remove the [CHANNEL] entries you made in the radio.ini file located in /data/sound/radio and delete the Hollywood folder and Los Angeles folder located in /data/sound/radio.
