Mod Description:

This mod adds a new radio station - Sims FM. It includes music, news, talk and commercials.

The station's list consists of 132 tracks:
  • 90 songs from different TS3 radio stations (mostly pop and indie);
  • 20 commercials (based on the TV commercials from The Sims and TS2);
  • 16 radio djs talks and 6 news reports (a combination of TS3 sims' voices and some TS4 audio).
Here's a brief example of how it may sound ingame:


The game shuffles the station tracks, so they won't be played in a certain order. For instance, you may hear 10 songs in a row or 3 commercials. It's random.


Requirements and Game Version:

The mod was built and tested with game version 1.67.

The station's list includes the songs from ALL Expansion packs (World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Supernatural, Seasons, University Life, Island Paradise, Into the Future). The Stuff packs are not required for this mod.

red cross If you don't have any of the EPs, the mod will work, but each time the game will try to play a song from the missing EP, the stereo's sound will disappear and you will have to change the radio station or to turn the stereo off and on.

green tick So, in order for this mod to work correctly you must have all Expansion packs installed. As an alternative, you can change the station song list (replace or delete the missing songs).








Installation and removal:

Install the package file to your Mods/Packages folder.
Uninstall by removing.
If you save the game with this radio station playing and then delete the mod, your stereo won't sound till you change the radio station.


Conflicts:

This mod overrides the Stereo XML found in GameplayData.package and will conflict with any mod that alters the same resource.
