Planning On Writing Radio Station Editor

I'm planning on developing a radio station editor for Saints Row 2-4.

Currently I'm thinking a GUI application posted on here (and on GitHub).

It would require installation of some third party tools (Wwise, Minimauls' tools, etc).

Anyway this is the feature list as it currently stands, feel free to add anything.

Functionality:
Allows replacing individual songs or entire radio stations in Saints Row 2, Saints Row the Third and Saints Row IV, automating the process as much as possible.

While it would support automation, it would also support manual steps as well, including command line functions so if someone wanted to use it in a larger tool it would integrate easily.


Features:
  • Auto-detect of Game Installs (with user-override)
  • Auto-detect of tool installs (with user-override) (Also would offer information where to download the tools, most of which are here.)
  • Automatic backup of game data files
  • Optional automatic installation of modified files
  • Drag and Drop support
  • Automatic rebuilding of radio station table file (remove intro/outros for replaced songs, put in song length, etc.)
  • Handling of special songs (with the sing alongs), warning the user about the replacement.
  • Automatic check of max soundbank size (128MB) with warnings given to user.
  • Option to disable intro/outros for station/songs.
  • Option to disable ads for station/songs.

Stuff I'd Like It To Do:

These are things I would like to include as features but I have not yet determined all the specifics on how to implement yet.
  • Automate Wwise Conversion
  • Automate Music Conversion (with optional Normalization)
  • Update song names in UI
  • Create new song previews for in-game mixtape edit
