Radio from live stream

[Mantriur]

Looking for a radio mod, which can play a stream from the Internet instead of files. Is that possible?

 

Background: Friend of mine runs a swing radio, which would be a good match for Fallout. http://rockstepradio.com. It would be very cool to have that in-game.

 

Edit: If someone can make this possible, I'd be happy to pay for the work.

I've been looking for something like this...

Specially because I don't download music.

It would be great to connect your spotify/soundcloud account!

..Only if I knew how to mod

The problem is every song needs to be added as a .wav and loaded in when the game first loads. The only real way to do this would be using a media program like vlc player, writing a plugin to check a file which is written by f4se, and if the player isn't tuned to a dummy radio station with it's name, VLC mutes itself.

 

This is way too much effort to reproduce what almost exactly translates to "run the radio in the background and leave your radio off ingame".

There might be a work-around (I've seen similar in other games, with live video). Have the music program running in another window, and somehow enable an in-game switch on the game radio to allow the volume from the other window to 'bleed in' (basically, you'd just be hearing the music you already had playing but couldn't hear because you had FO4 open).

 

Of course, that goes beyond normal modding, You have to hard-code some of that into the game itself. Something that would enable FO4's audio to NOT completely override other sources.
