Basics
The custom radio lets you play whatever song you want on the in-game radio. The station for the custom radio is AM 1080. You can find the settings for it at the bottom of Misc where it has to be enabled for it to work. Only .ogg and .wav files work for this guide I will be using .ogg files.
How to get the files and where to put them
First, you will need an audio file you can get one in many ways like a YouTube to mp3 converter or downloading it from a site. The file you get will most likely be in the .mp3 or some other format so we will need to convert it. you can do this in many ways but I use file converter[file-converter.org] right click on a file then select Show more options, locate File Converter, a drop-down menu will appear and you will select .ogg. After the file is converted locate documents>TheLongDrive>CustomRadio and drop the file in there.

] If you can't find it then try to follow the path shown in the settings for the radio. Or if the custom radio folder isn't there make a folder and name it "CustomRadio" spelled exactly like that.

The Radio plays songs randomly so the order doesn't matter. If the radio doesn't play press reset path in the settings menu.

Like if this helped you :)

im late but using .mp3 causes lag spikes when each song loads, i have no idea why that would be the case but just use .ogg or .wav instead

quick note, if on beta (i think only beta, correct me) F10 skips the song

there is a slight lag spike when the music starts playing, im mainly using mp3 so is this just normal for these files? it isnt to much of an issue though
