How To Make A Fallout 4 Radio Mod
Filed Under, &The good folks at Bethesda Softworks have gone to great lengths to assemble a fine pop soundtrack for Fallout 4. The thing even. Unfortunately, the game can take anywhere from 20 to a 200 hours to complete.
Here are the best Fallout 4 Xbox One mods you must try To mod or not to mod, that is the question. Lauren Relph. This trait isn't in Fallout 4, but a mod has been made to emulate it.
So, no matter how much you love those assembled classics, they get old.That’s where voice talent Casey Mongillo comes in. With next-to-no budget, Mongillo has crafted, a full-on radio station that comes complete with an ever-expanding list of songs built from a list of public domain classics and, oh yeah, a brand new companion.We got a chance to talk to the creator of one of Fallout 4’s most necessary mods about her inspiration, process, and becoming part of the game. What inspired you to tackle a radio station mod for ‘Fallout 4’?I began working on a radio station for Fallout 3 briefly in 2009, but I never completed it since it just didn’t feel necessary. Though for Fallout 4, the existing was more or less abandoned, and any existing content by Bethesda was cut. Having something almost complete bothered me, so I wanted to fill that void.How long did WRVR take to put together?I started jotting down ideas when I was on a plane back to New York from London.Being stuck on a plane for six or seven hours when caffeinated will make you a little kooky, so I stayed busy by brainstorming how I wanted the overall project to look, sound, and feel. It’s been a work-in-progress ever since that day.
The first release took a few weeks to build.How labor-intensive is it to create a mod for ‘Fallout 4’?Very labor-intensive. Honestly, you probably have to have a few screws loose to be this dedicated – to anything. Be prepared to sacrifice a lot of time that could be spent outdoors. What skill level would you say amateur developers need to be at to accomplish something like this?Bethesda Game Studios’ tool, the “Creation Kit”, is fairly self explanatory, at least for easy tweaks, like what weapons deal what kind of damage, what characters wear what outfits, etc.The intensity of the mod is determined by how much you’re able to learn using the Creation Kit. You can start out and change a few words around, then tweak more and more as you learn.For example, originally, I wanted it to be just a radio station. Then, I toyed with creating myself as an NPC radio host. Then, I gave her spoken dialogue, greeting the player.
After uploading progress videos to YouTube, people asked me to make her into a companion. So I did.It sounded like a lot of fun to record the dialogue, so I think that’s what drove me.This interview has been edited for brevity and clarity. Media via Giphy.

I like listening to the Radio in Fallout games. The combination of music with the occasional commentary on my actions is enjoyable. But I'm a little tired of the very small playlist of jokey, often borderline offensive songs.

I'd love to replace Diamond City Radio's tunes with some great songs by some of my favorite Boston bands that It'd be even better if I could add them without replacing the existing songs, expanding the overall size of the playlist, to reduce the repetition.Is it possible to do this? I have all of the music that I'd like to use in DRM free MP3 format, as well as the original CD's if I need to rip them to something else. This can be accomplished on PC by simply removing the songs from the game files and placing your own songs in their place. As long as the name is exactly the same, the game will play your songs instead.To find the music files simply search the Fallout 4 game files for one of the songs: 'Heartaches' and 'Johnny' are the names of two songs which you can use to search for.Alternatively you can use which essentially does the same as the procedure I outlined above, it only allows you to replace songs and not add any.
