Find the folder with the save files on your computer

Open a file explorer window and paste this path in the navigation bar:

%AppData%\..\LocalLow\BirdyDogStudio\OceanIsHomeIslandLife\

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\BirdyDogStudio\OceanIsHomeIslandLife\

IMPORTANT: Just in case, make a backup copy of your save. Just copy all the files from the "OceanIsHomeIslandLife" folder.

Add your music

Open the UserData folder. It contains 2 folders.
Drop the mp3 tracks into the UserMusic folder. In the game, turn on the radio and press F8 to switch the audio source.

Add radio stations

In the User Radio folder there is a file user_radio_stations. Open it with any text editor.

Format of recording radio stations to a file:

1 - link to the radio station.
2 - the name of the station displayed in the game. Be sure to replace spaces with underscores or dashes.
3 - format (mp3 for most radio stations).

How to find the radio stations you need?

I am using Google Chrome

Let's show how to search for links to radio stations, using the example of one popular site https://www.internet-radio.com/

Choose the station you like and open it in a new window:

Press F12 or Right Click on the page and select "Inspect" to open the developer tools:

Follow the instructions in the screenshot below:

Select the Network tab
In the Filter panel, select Media
Press Ctrl+R to refresh data
A line with the content should appear in the list, select it.
Copy the link in the Request URL line and paste it into the user_radio_stations.

What can I say? You really make us feel like a part of your development process. Please stay the course. I had to say that now.

Was soll ich sagen? Ihr gebt uns richtig das Gefühl ein Teil in eurem Entwicklungsprozess zu sein. Bitte, bleibt auf diesem Kurs. Das musste ich jetzt mal gesagt haben.
