How to Add Radio Stations to Euro Truck Simulator 2


Important:

My favorite stream links: [ Ссылка ]
My game is downloaded and installed from Steam

Want to play custom radio station streams and even local FM stations in your ETS2 or ATS game? Yes?

You can add custom radio stations by editing the live_streams.sii file manually.


First things first, the game creates the file when you update radio stations from the internet from withing the game…

Here is how to do that


Load ETS2 or ATS at least once, and navigate to Radio -- Streaming -- Update From Internet

Watch me

I had already updated from the internet before, so don’t worry if you don’t see any radio stations on your end

This should be enough to pop up a couple of interesting stations.

Time to add our own. ]]]]]


The file we are editing can be found here: Mac Library - Application Support - Euro Truck Simulator 2 - live_streams.sii

To launch the Library folder, you need to Click on go with the Options+Shift key on the keyboard held down.

If you don’t hold down options(alt)+shift, you won’t see the library option—- check example

Okay, let’s go to live_streams.sii

You can see my file already has a healthy dose of stations


On Windows: Open My Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2\live_streams.sii

— Scroll to the bottom of the list and add in new stations in the same format as the ones above

Formart:
stream_data[(next stream number)]: "(stream link)|(stream name)|(genre)|(two letter language code)|(bitrate)|(favorite 0 or 1)”

This is what I added

stream_data[274]: "[ Ссылка ] Radio|Deep House/Pop|EN|128|1"

I prefer copying the previous entry, pasting it and then modifying the values I have to

Get a station from my list of stations: [ Ссылка ]
Now,

Save and close the live_streams.sii file

I also like to restart my game to ensure the changes reflect.

Make sure the stream numbers are unique for each line (stream_data[XX], where as XX are supposed to be unique, sequential numbers for every station. i.e. 1,2,3,4…,70,71,72)

Note: You can overwrite pre-existing streams with your custom ones, then use 'Update From Internet' within the game without overwriting your custom streams.

And you can see




There is my radio station at the very bottom. The favorite star is lit up because I set favorite to 1


That is how you do it.
