I could make like an hour-long playlist with cigarette ads and everything... the sky's the limit, really. The only limit I have it the size of the mission people have to download before joining a multiplayer server. For a 8 mb mission like the one I have right now, it takes about 2 minutes to download and load with a normal rig. Not too bad, but it's nothing like the 15 minutes loading time it took when the mission file size was 25 mb.

For single-player or coop missions, though... I could have (in theory) a very long playlist. And if I felt motivated, I could even make the track order randomized... but I'm a bit too lazy to learn LUA. Maybe at some point...

Can you either tell how to do this or point us in the right direction? I've watched your video several times now, both because I like it and of course I like the music. And as I said, I'm quite sure the Andrew Sisters appreciate you keeping your pants on .....

I haven't gotten my Dora of the ground yet but I do have all my keys remapped. And have taken her for a spin down the taxi way. Just haven't got her off the ground yet. Denny says that the Dora does not like being on the ground but is made for the air.

Unfortunately, I just found out on the forums that there are issues with broadcasting in multiplayer matches that ED is aware of. Until a fix is done, radio project will be shelved.
