📋 About This Mod
Do you find your Gauss Rifle a bit lacking in the sound department ? Well I've got just what you need, wastelander.

If you too find that the Gauss Rifle sounds more like some kind of... spring-loaded BB gun than an electromagnetic weapon that hurls slugs at hypersonic speeds, then please check these new sounds. Handcrafted with passion.As my first mod ever it's likely to be far from perfect and I'll be grateful for constructive criticism.
EDIT : Re-did the silenced fire sound and added an alternate charge sound.
Installation : Via Nexus Mod Manager. And if you, for obscure reasons, haven't downloaded this awesome tool yet, just drop the sound folder in the game's data folder.
Tools used : Audacity and Wavozaur.
Goes very well with dikr's awesome retexture ! Check it out !
