IceWolf729 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Hello, I didn't find a topic on this matter, so I would like to know if there is a certain limit regarding the maximum number of songs on Independence FM. Currently, I have about 140 songs, I can hear all of them, although some aren't heard as often as others. So does anyone know if there is any limit to how many songs you can have ? On a side note, I find it rather funny as the DJ, Gary Sheen, always talks about the songs being sh*te, since all of them are oldies, from the late 50's to a few early 90's, mostly classic rock, so the comments are a bit inappropriate, but I definitely love the station's jingles ...

Keith in the Woods Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 ive got about 3000 songs bunged in, runs fine almost always. sometimes the station crashes and i have to restart the game, but it happens so rarely its not a problem. Gary Sheens brilliant, its nice to have a pessemistic brit for a DJ.

IceWolf729 Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 Wow, and I thought that 140 songs were too much ! So it seems, that I can go well over up to thousands of songs; that's very nice !

radioman Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I don't think there is, I have over 1,000 songs in IV, and SA, and VC, amd III-that's over 1,000 for each game. The trick is to use shortcuts to songs, so you don't use too much hard drive space.

TOMERAKA Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I have about 400 songs and I'm having no problems, but you've already seen a guy runs about 3000. I think it's unlimited!

EColeman24 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 You guys have me outdone by far I only have around 200 songs.

Keith in the Woods Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Does anyone know if you can change the directory so it uses songs from My Music folder instead of the Rockstar Games folder in My Documents? It would save me having 2 copies of music on mah C drive.

All you have to do is use shortcuts to the songs instead of using the Original songs, this WILL save A LOT of hard drive space as well as eliminate the 2 copies on the drive as you are worried about since there will be only shortcuts to songs rather than the song file itself. Just a heads up. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/438983-independence-fm-maximum-song-limit/#findComment-1059751270 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith in the Woods Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 cheers mate, dunno why i never though of that Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/438983-independence-fm-maximum-song-limit/#findComment-1059751301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
That_Guy28 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I guess the only limit is the hard drive space. If each song is about 5MB and you have a 500GB hard drive, you could probably put about 95000 songs on there. The Windows files and GTA files are about 25GB total. So, (500,000-25,000)/5=95,000. Considering all you do is play GTA IV on your computer, that is how many songs you can put on there if you have the average hard drive. edit: and yes, i was really that bored.

madasafish2010 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Wow sh*t? 3000 songs!? I thought the limit was 13! LOL Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/438983-independence-fm-maximum-song-limit/#findComment-1061882578 Share on other sites More sharing options...
APNBUSTER Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Wow sh*t? 3000 songs!? I thought the limit was 13! LOL I think u right. I think that's the limit. Because I use the shuffle mode and the station ain't play all songs I have. You can add many songs but I think it can run only 13 ones, as I see.
