Thanks for the mod. Looking forward to injecting these into all the custom stations I create this week in prep for a fresh playthrough :). Very great mod idea. I wish other mod content creators were out there doing it. Looks like ChatGPT has the ability to generate mp3s from text, YT - tutorial. Maybe I'll see how it does generating commercials from the game lore on its own. I'm not creative enough to come up with any lol.
LOL, I tried following that tutorial. It was actually really easy. ChatGPT was really good at coming up with ideas, scripts, and using that service to turn them to MP3s. If curious what it generated in under an hour, I bundled the mp3s up onto my Google Drive.
The problem is I'd have to pay to get realistic sounding voices. Also that pipeline only worked for the narration. It couldn't create sound effects and background music for the commercials that ChatGPT generated for the scripts. So I'd have to find and build similar pipelines with other services that could generate MP3s for those. Then use an audio program to merge the MP3 layers together. It'd be some work.
If willing to pay for a month from a few services, bet I could generate maybe 10 commercials an hour once figuring out the process. It's be slower though for scripts with multiple voices mixed in. That text to voice service didn't seem to let you target parts of the script for different voices. Maybe you get that in the paid version, but if not you'd have to chunk up the script by voice and then it'd be more work merging it all at the end. ... Anyway, interesting experiment.
Thank you so much !!!! I'm actually a really big music lover and I always customize the radios in the game if possible, GTA V was my favorite so far until I saw this mod. I was actually looking up standalone ads for the game to make it feel more natural and immersive but here you are with a folder full of them. Thank you so much for doing this, you saved me so much time.
DOWNLOAD! This is so very cool. Both for folks making their own custom stations and for those of us who have a bunch of custom stations but want a little Night City specific kick to them. Thank you so much for coming up with this, what a most excellent idea!
OH just FYI, you might want to remove this from the "requirements" to download and use this mod as it might confuse less experienced modders since you don't really need this to actually USE your mod.

Our next update will include lead ins, e.g. "another word from our sponsors."
Great work.
For the Saul ads added bonus I owe you a coffee!
Definitely voting mod of the month, thanks for making this!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THANK YOU <3
I thought of doing so for my radio, but released a little short before you. will totally update my mod with this.
Glad you found the mod useful!
