This is a support category for asking questions about how to get something done on the Roblox websites or how to do something on Roblox applications such as Roblox Studio.

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!

I have a sound that I want to use in my game, but I can’t upload it (it’s not inappropriate or anything, it just can’t be uploaded to roblox as one audio file). However, I have a link to it. The link is JUST the audio file, like “roblox.com/randomaudiofile.mp3”. Is there any way to insert this into my game, as one sound object that can play said audio file?

  1. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!

I’m unsure how to do this.

  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?

There’s nothing online that I can find, whether it be devforum or third party forums. And I don’t know if this matters, but I’m not very knowledgeable in APIs.

Note, the reason I can’t just upload it as an audio is because it infinitely keeps expanding in length.

Why not just loop a short sound? There are plenty of examples of this kind of thing in the toolbox audio.

i’m basically trying to implement a radio into my game, which plays real-time radio stations.

That’s a much better description.
You aren’t loading an audio file.
You’d be playing an off site web link to a radio station.
I’m pretty sure that wouldn’t be allowed.
