File Size #2

I don't know if anyone's even tracking this, but... what happens if I use file-sizes larger than 10mb? I only ask because I want to do a couple radio stations built on full albums... a live show radio and a concept album radio. Maybe this isn't necessary (I don't know if song are randomized or not), but my plan was to turns these albums into a single track before putting them in the radio.

There's no way to get a file that size down to less than 10mb without killing the quality so bad it's unlistenable. Would this still be doable?

Or is this even necessary? Is there a way to force it to play tracks together, as if an entire album is being played rather than just a shuffled list of random songs?

It'll be fine, the 10mb limit was just a recommendation, as larger files can cause a small delay when being loaded to memory (I never really tried at what size that starts becoming an issue, but probably only once you get into the triple digit sizes). But nothing technically prevents you from using large files, just give it a try. The next update of the mod (Currently on the /fmod branch) will also fix this by not loading the whole audio file into memory at once, also ordered playback will be a thing.
