Installation

gta6_radio shows a horizontal strip of station logos at the top of the screen while the radio key (Q by default) is held in a vehicle. The current station sits in the middle, larger than the rest, with a thin line and the station name in capitals underneath. Scrolling the mouse wheel or pressing the left / right arrows while holding the key changes the station. It needs no framework and reads everything from game natives.

2. Server config​

server.cfg
ensure gta6_radio

3. Test​

Get into a vehicle with a radio, hold Q and scroll the mouse wheel. The strip should appear below the compass area and the station should change with each notch.

Works with​

  • gta6_hud: the strip sits at 9% of the screen height by default, just below gta6_hud's compass and street names. Adjust Config.Top if you use another HUD at the top centre.
  • Other radio scripts that also disable the radio wheel control (control 85) will conflict. Run only one.
