[What This Is]

Adds an "Appalachia"-themed radio station to the game that plays copyright-free music in the same vein / inspired by later game("s").
Doubles as a functional framework, but is unsupported when used this way.


[What This Does]

+Adds "Appalachia Radio" to the game, which makes more sense if you're playing TTW and consider Appalachia is technically a short hop away from the DC area.
+Smaller-than-usual filesize because it uses .ogg files instead of bulky .wav or .mp3 files. Optimization!
+Randomized playlists on the station keep things somewhat interesting, though no DJ is included. Automation won.
+Soundtrack draws entirely from copyright-free sources, so you don't have to be a butt and shout "is this piracy?" and send me doorkickers and death threats.
+The "Functional Framework" seen in other mods I've retooled is present, and while the names of the files reflect this, the music is now entirely different. Don't believe me? Install it and listen before complaining.
+No support will be given, condoned, or tolerated for anyone redistributing or otherwise repackaging this with other any other files, replacements or not. You have been warned.
+Added a GlobalVariable to all versions, which = you can set manually via console to make the station stay enabled no matter what.

[Music Credits]

There's an additional text file, "AC_SongList_AppalachiaRadio_Redux.txt", that details all the music used in the mod. It is also included in the Misc Download section.


[Disclaimer]

This is a completely-for-fun and not-for-profit mod, and required a lot of work, research, and tinkering to get right. It may not be the most accurate thing, but it just works.
It DOES NOT and WILL NOT include any copyrighted or otherwise damnable audio that people can complain and meme about. You're just getting the basics. It's still functional, from what I've tested.
While it DOES double as a plausible framework for other music to be used in place of what's included.... You'll have to make your own cool radio station mod with that in mind. Have fun with that, wannabe-doorkickers!
Also, under no circumstances are any of the contents of this mod to be redistributed, repackaged, sold, re-recorded, or supplemented directly or indirectly. Again, make your own cool things, but don't share them.
I have ZERO tolerance for and will take ZERO responsibility for the actions of people foolish enough to try repackaging this with anything they think may be more "appropriate". If you wanna screw around, you'll find out right quick what can go wrong.
You have been warned!

If you want to extract and convert files from FO76 for this, here's some code aleaallee came up for GitBash and ffmpeg.
I have no idea how those two programs work, so again, you're on your own and no support will be given for getting it to work.
This is only useful and only permitted to be useful if you own the base games in question and know what you're doing.

for i in *.ogg; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -ac 1 "${i%.*}_mono.ogg"; done

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE CONVERTED OR OTHER EXTRACTED FILES. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.


[Conclusion]

This was a lot of work to put together. Hopefully this time around, I've made the right and better choices about the music selection, and still made it enjoyable.

Comments are disabled for a variety of painfully obvious reasons. If you have an issue with the music that is included, keep it to yourself.

With that all said and done, have fun!
