How to Get Custom Music on GTA VCS for the PSP

Sometimes when a person plays a game for awhile, he may want to hear new music after hearing the same songs over and over again. With Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, it is possible to make a custom radio station, which will play any song you want it to play. All it takes is a retail or a burned CD, a copy of Vice City Stories and a few minutes to spare on the process.

Things You'll Need

CD
Rockstar custom tracks
Exact Audio Copy PSP edition
PSP USB cable

Instructions

- 1
  Download and Install Rockstar Custom Tracks onto your computer.
- 2
  Download and install Exact Audio Copy PSP Edition. Make sure to install it in the same directory as Rockstar Custom Tracks.
- 3
  Download a save file from Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories from GameFAQs if you don't already have one. Otherwise, skip ahead to Step 6.
- 4
  Connect your PSP to your computer with the USB cable. Set the PSP to USB mode.
- 5
  Unzip the save file you downloaded. Cut and paste the contents to the PSP\\SAVEDATA folder located on your PSP drive.
- 6
  Get the CD with the music you want to rip on it. Put the disc into your CD drive.
- 7
  Open Exact Audio Copy. Wait while it reads your CD. If it fails to read your CD, select the correct drive.
- 8
  Hold the \"Ctrl\" key and select the tracks you want in your game.
- 9
  Click the button that has a picture of a CD pointing to a PSP.
- 10
  Pick any version when the dialog box prompts you to select one.
- 11
  Wait for the PSP to finish converting the audio.
- 12
  Close Exact Audio Copy.
- 13
  Open your PSP drive on your computer. Navigate to the \"SAVEDATA\" folder.
- 14
  Go through each folder and highlight each folder's \"icon0\" file. The file you are looking for shows an image of a man on a motorcycle. This is the Vice City Stories save file. Take note of which folder this is located in.
- 15
  Return to the \"SAVEDATA\" folder and find the \"*********CUSTOMTRACKS\" folder, where the asterisks represent the version number.
- 16
  Click to rename the folder. You will want to change it to \"[First4letters][First5Numbers]CUSTOMTRACKS\" where the first four letters are from the folder you made a note of, and where the first five numbers are from the same source. Do not include the brackets. For example, the American version would probably be renamed to \"ULUS10160CUSTOMTRACKS\".
- 17
  Unplug the PSP and run Vice City Stories.
- 18
  Pause the game after it loads and navigate to the \"Audio\" menu. Change \"Custom Tracks\" to \"On.\"
- 19
  Unpause and get into a car. The first track should begin to play and you should be able to use the left and right buttons to change the tracks.
