Era Radio is finally here with a fun twist. It is LIVE! It's not a new idea to Graal, but it will certainly be a fun aspect of Era. Players will be welcome to make shout outs, businesses will be allowed to advertise, items will be given away, and so much more!

Most likely players will also be allowed to own radio stations (Though they will NOT be live) that must be different genres, and we will have our live Staff station.

I hope you are all excited as I am for this! I have been constantly trying to get it up and running since May, and with some help from some friends, hours of trial and error, we got it up.

See you in the sound waves

Magnificent work! This is exciting.

Whatever you do... No letting Gabriel host it... All we need is a radio segment on Political Perspectives and Debate.

You forgot classical music, which is acceptable.

So, when you say Businesses can advertise, you're talking about audio advertisements, right?

Yes, ammo mart could create a commercial, simply just have a recording of someone talking, or the dj could just make the announcement.

So, you're saying you can record yourself talking for an advert, send it to an email or upload it to era somehow and you guys will upload it and you could have an advert for your business on Era? Sweetio.

Emera · #11 11-16-2011, 07:47 PM

Love the idea of letting players own their own station. Well done!

papajchris · #12 11-16-2011, 08:02 PM

Yup. Seeing how it goes, i really want to utilize the live dj part in that maybe there could be a "news around the world hour" where a dj keeps everyone up to date on interesting news. Just an idea, but thats what i'd like to see.

DarkRenji · #13 11-16-2011, 09:25 PM

Ok so you guy's brought back the radio stations, why is that such a big deal?

The only new feature is the live thing... ?

Are you guy's at least going to give them new names?

Also for "news" why can't you just bring Era News back

Skyld's still working on the news GUI

only 2 more years to go!

No but in all seriousness, it just hasn't been a major concern, especially when we are working on a ton of things on Dev. I definitily want to get Era News fixed, but the way it worked before was just so inefficient. Once we get everything done, I'd love to get Era News back up and running properly.

Woooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooo yah wotasjndfladsf

maximus_asinus · #18 11-16-2011, 10:12 PM

It would be interesting if there were multiple stations you could tune into, your live station and a few prerecorded stations GTA style. You could have quests tied into the recorded stations.

The_Federov · #19 11-16-2011, 10:37 PM

I was promised a Ratio station before they were deleted :/ I guess I'll settle for running the main-station <3

Sorry, ratio stations will never exist in this game for all we know.

Quite sure they don't work just because you have the tag.

Staff normally set their own rank to owner, I watched Nich and Zeus do it yesterday.

bloodykiller · #29 11-17-2011, 08:51 PM

radios r nice, but rnt gang point shops nicer??

Supaman771 · #30 11-17-2011, 10:23 PM

Apparently a post expressing my personal opinion on a subject is less worthy to read than one entailing "ownerplz".

Why not accept reality and make a server worth playing?

No, you're wrong.. Here's some code to prove it, cause I don't like being wrong, ever.

PHP Code:


			
function onCreated() {

  this.business = "Vengeance Radio";

  this.owners = {"Tim_Rocks", "papajchris"};

  this.hireranks = {"Owner", "Co-Owner", "Manager"};

  this.join("newbusiness-functions");

}

In order to use the commands for a business your account needs to be in this.owners or you'll need to have the rank in this.hireranks. Now there is an exception, a level 4 staff can use them as well.
