WAR Radio with Angry Bob v1. 1
a Fallout 3 modification by Volek
This mod adds a new radio station with 24 songs, and the host is Angry Bob from the post-apocalyptic film HARDWARE aka M. A. R. K. 13.
As of V1. 1, the mod is divided into three parts:
Part 1 features seven songs and one commercial from the film, as well as Angry Bob\'s voice.
Part 2 features Hardrock/Metal songs only, including the requests from the Nexus community.
Part 3 features songs from different genres, from Choir to Punk.
It\'s like a Soundtrack to Survival, most songs deal with post-apocalyptic themes or war in general.
NOTE: you don\'t have to download all 3 parts. Of course it\'s recommended for variety, but if you dont, you\'ll sometimes hear nothing for a few seconds.
The actual score of the film is more like ambient-orchestra-synthie-blues music (can\'t describe it better), i included only two songs of this style. The songs played during the film are more rock/industrial like, and all of them are included in the playlist of part 1.
The film is from 1990, and has been re-released on Blu-Ray recently. If you can rent it, its worth a try. Especially if you\'re a post-apocalyptic-genre fan like me ;)
I would recommend the Hardware Soundtrack as background music, it\'s better than the original FO3 background music imho, it reminds me a bit of Mark Morgan\'s works for Fallout 1 & 2.
To install, extract the Data folder from each archive into your Fallout 3 folder. Activate WAR_radio.esp with FOMM or FO3 Launcher.
To uninstall, deactivate & delete the esp file and delete the contents of Data/Sound/Voice/War_radio.esp/
!!!IMPORTANT INFO FOR UPDATERS!!!
please delete all files of v1. 0 before updating. Load your game w/o the ESP, save, exit, and then activate the ESP.
Otherwise you won\'t hear anything.
Sometimes the first second of a song or Angry Bob\'s voice is cut off. I dont know why, i adressed this by putting a short pause in front of every track.
Not everyone will like all the songs on the station. If you happen to really hate a song and dont wanna hear it anymore, you can delete it from the folder Data/Sound/Voice/WAR_radio.esp/MaleOld01. As they are standard wav-format, a doubleclick should open them with Windows Media Player, Winamp or whatever program its assigned to. When you found the song you dont like, just delete it. The game will still search for the song, so you\'ll hear a few seconds of silence.
All tracks are 22kHz 16bit Mono files. So the sound quality is not very good. If you like what you hear, go out and buy the stuff!!!
Thanks to Delgerin for the idea of Angry Bob on the radio. I\'m a fan of the film, and i really had to do this to sleep well ;)
Thanks to Rekicker for the Radio tutorial, which made it possible that i could create the mod in less than 2 hrs (plus another 2 hrs for the updated version)
