Capt. Midnight/CBS NEWS Mod issue

Qrex · 10-03-22, 01:45 PM

So I have the Capt. Midnight/CBS NEWS Mod (the original and the update) activated through JSGME, but when I play channel 30 on the radio, it seems to be playing two different newscasts or Radio shows at the same time. Plays two at the same time even without the updated patch activated... Bit distracting...

Anyone else get this or have a way to fix?

Thanks!

Do you have any other radio mods installed, Qrex? The radio station mods do not overwrite each other, but rather "blend" together if there is a "conflicting" channel. You might also want to download and run Digital_Trucker's RadioStationManager V1.0 (RSM) mod. It can be a bit fiddly to install and run, since it was written for Windows XP, but it can be made to run acceptably in Win10, and I would assume by association, in Win11. It can help you sort all kinds of issues with Radio Stations, and it can help you in building your own. One of the radio station mods has a "date sequence" error, where an event occurs after the previous one, and that results in a CTD, which can be somewhat difficult to track down, unless you know what you are looking for, and the exact date & time of the occurrence. RSM will find that for you.

Qrex!

... back on the surface from a 'silent run' since 2009!

LOL! yeah, it's been a while since I have been on the forums or played modded sub games.

So I have fiddling around with the RSM utility, but am confused by it. It's activated but it doesn't do anything in the game. Should I uninstall all the Capt. Midnight programs first?

Did anyone ever make a 'How To' video on Youtube or anything to show how the RSM program is supposed to work?

As I recall, it does or did come with a read me .txt with it, that outlined how to use it.

Think I may be fortunate to have the download I grabbed some time way back... will check & see... if I still do have that & did not lose it in the HD meltdown... that I suffered a couple of months back.

Exactly Maddy - it is not a mod per se, but a utility that you load your radio mod files into.
