A simple template for anyone who wants to add their own songs to a PDA playlist in S.T.A.L.K.E.R Anomaly
Admittedly a tad redundant considering you could simply take any custom radio mod and add music yourself but I figured a simple to download template and tutorial would be nice for a neat little addition like this.
Instructions:
Take your song(s) and convert them to the .ogg format at 44100hz & 96kbps using a program like Audacity (Be sure to Export not Save As, and keep the quality at 9)
Assuming you've put the template in your game files through your preferred method go to the mod folder>gamedata>sounds>radio and drag and drop your songs to the _playlist_2 folder, you can also add more playlists by following the naming configuration and adding folders i.e. _playlist_3, _playlist_4, and so on.
If you added another folder for a playlist:
Go to gamedata>configs>plugins and open up radio_zone_fm.ltx and simply change the number of playlists line to the correct number of playlists TOTAL (including the default Anomaly playlist)
Otherwise:
Load into the game and find your playlist in the PDA and profit
Other Info:
I haven't played with the Hideout Furniture mod yet but I am aware radios that you can place exist in the mod and by extension music being played in the world itself instead of a HUD sound meaning if you intend on having these playlists play on anything the music also has to be converted to mono instead of stereo audio. I'm unsure if it'll crash or simply not play but that's another heads up listed on that mods page.
Happy jamming S.T.A.L.K.E.Rs! :3
