The computer game "GTA: San Andreas" remains one of the most popular and successful third-person action games in the open world. Large staff, three cities, rural areas and a lot of freedom of action. Of course, moving between locations is more fun with music, since the path often takes several minutes. But what if all the radio stations are fed up or do not like you at all? Let's figure out how to add music to GTA: San Andreas ourselves.
Series chip
In no other similar game can you do this - create your own radio station from any tracks. This feature is only available in the GTA series of games. Starting with San Andreas, players can add any songs, and then listen to them on a separate radio station. The developers have tried on realism and immersion in the atmosphere, so between the added songs in between the voices of the hosts, various conversations will sound.
The procedure for creating a radio station is very simple and affordable for each player. To insert music in "GTA: San Andreas", you do not need additional programs or modifications - this function is built into the game by default.
Instruction manual
So, first you need to prepare a playlist with all the songs that you want to listen to when traveling on cars and motorbikes. For this you will not need additional utilities - just collect the tracks in one folder. A prerequisite is the mp3 format, and the rest of the parameters are not so important.
To add music to GTA: San Andreas, you need to open a special folder located on the system partition of the hard drive. This guide is valid for all Windows operating systems.
Open "My Documents" and find in them a folder called GTA San Andreas User Files. This directory contains the User Tracks folder. Here you need to copy all the necessary tracks. To add music to GTA: San Andreas, but not copy the files themselves to the system hard drive, you can create shortcuts for all the songs and transfer only them. This way you save space, the entire library of songs is on another section. The number of tracks is not limited.
Scanning
Now you need to start the game and open the audio settings section. In the block that is responsible for the radio parameters, click on the "Scan" button. After that, the game will begin downloading songs. This can take quite a while, especially if you want to add a large number of songs.
Turning on
It remains only to get into the car, find a radio station and enjoy the songs while traveling around the state. Sitting in the car, start flipping through the list of stations until you find “Own Radio”. In some translations, this radio station may be called "Player Tracking." Songs will be played in random order so that they do not have time to bother the player. Now you know how to add music to GTA: San Andreas.
In some versions of the game, the radio may not work. Typically, this problem occurs in pirated copies, in which the entire musical component is cut out. In this case, you will have to install a different version of the game.
