📋 About This Mod
JSRS Sound Mod for Fallout 4
Overhaul of Fallout 4 weapon sounds, using assets from the JSRS sound mod for ARMA 3.
Changes explosion, impact and ricochet sounds and provides a ton of all new weapon sounds (both player and NPC).
The weapon sounds use layers and new reverbs to provide a more realistic experience. Weapons of different calibers will have different report sounds and reverb.
It is HIGHLY recommended that you use this mod alongside Reverb and Ambience Overhaul as it was designed with that mod in mind.

Installation
Either extract files into the Fallout 4 Data folder or install with your mod manager of choice.
Patches are currently available for vanilla and DLC weapons. Patches for a select few weapon mods will follow. All patches are marked as ESL so they won't affect the plugin limit.
In order to actually make use of the weapon sounds for other weapon mods, you will need to change the sound keyword that they use.
For example, if I open up the 9x39 Project mod in the Creation Kit or FO4Edit, the VAL and Vintorez use the sound keyword "s_40_9x39Sounds". To replace these sounds with the ones from this mod, we would change this keyword to "JSRS_s_40_ASVAL".
There are patching tutorials in the articles section. Omega4D also made a video tutorial:
