markslo111 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Okay, so I want to have custom music in GTA IV for PC, but I don't know how to set it. In the game, it said I needed to put my music in My Documents/Rockstar Games/GTA IV/User Music....so I put it there and went into the game. I started listening to Independence FM radio but all there was were commercials. So, if anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, please tell me. A quick answer would be appriciated. : ) Edited December 4, 2008 by markslo111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ManArmy Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Well, what you can do is reduce the radio volume to zero in your settings. Then play the songs you want on windows media player or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TECHN9CiAN Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 How many commercials did you get? I think you should've just waited a little longer, then your music would play... If not, I believe you can just change the play-syle option from "radio" to "random" and play the songs radio-style, but without commercials. Check the audio settings in the start menu....

Fidayi Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 After you put the song into the folder, you need to go to the audio options and perform a scan. You can also switch the Auto Scan option on so it can detect any new songs you add to the folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharmingCharlie Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 This is straight from the readme file and tells you how to do it. I have followed the instructions in the readme file and it worked fine for me :- 10) INDEPENDENCE FM (USER RADIO)_______________________ For the first time ever, you can now select your own favorite songs to play through the in-game radio station Independence FM. Simply place your non DRM’ed MP3s, WMAs, or M4As (or shortcuts to your music folders) in the file location below: My Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA IV\User Music Note: Quicktime or iTunes needs to be installed for M4A support. After accessing Independence FM as you would with any other in-game radio station, you will also have the following options in the Audio tab of the Pause Menu: Scanning Modes Enable Auto Scan - Set this to ON to perform a Quick Scan automatically on game startup. Quick Scan - Reads the audio files within your folder, plays back exactly as they are in the folder. Complete Scan - Reads the audio files within your folder, performs additional analysis to enhance user experience. Play Modes Sequential - Plays through audio files as they appear in your folder, can skip songs. Shuffle - Plays through audio files randomly, can skip songs. Radio - Plays through audio files randomly with radio adverts and DJ banter in between tracks, cannot skip songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
