SCS General Nonsense Thread

Escape is the best i think, no vocals just calm "noises" remind me of childhood and playing the orignal Driver game while my papa listened to jazz on the radio, absolute zen experience.

Not sure about the game radio
Is it live radio channels?

To be honest I prefer my own selected channels added to the live-stream config

It's a pre-made playlist of music stored within the game that pretends to be a live stream or radio. For example, unlike your own sound files, where you pick the first to play and it starts from the beginning, that in-game radio will start at a random place in a random song, like a livestream would. If you turn your radio off for five seconds, then resume, it won't resume where you paused, it will resume five seconds later into the song, like a live stream would. But it's not streaming from internet, those are local music. It does not replace live streams, you can still listen to those.

Read also: GTA radio.
But I can safely assume that most people here don't know what GTA is.

Has anyone here played Star Trucker? This game has a very similar in-game radio. It's also just some songs on repeat without DJ or news or advertisements. But at least it has jingles between songs. I don't expect SCS to go full GTA with the radio, with weather updates and ads for in-game companies (although it would be awesome to hear some ads for a Walbert or some random lawyer from those "Injured?" billboards). But jingles would be really nice to have, they would improve the experience a lot.

I don't see the idea of a Grand Theft Auto-inspired radio format, and it is worth mentioning that they still use "singular audio files". Those were what they used in old games (except SA) and they still do use them in some stations in the current entries.
