📋 About This Mod
This mod replaces all of the "mus_combat_...wxm" files with silent audio. The actual song files are 3 minutes of silence and their ending jingle is 1 second. This is so that the game isn't loading hundreds of 1 second long sound files during combat. You may still get an occasional combat jingle that plays during a fight, I'm not sure which files these are but they aren't too intrusive.
To install, drop the "music" folder into your ...\Fallout 4\Data\ folder.
These lines must appear in your Fallout4Prefs.ini and Fallout4Custom.ini files:
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 sResourceDataDirsFinal=
If you're confused about changing these ini files please watch Gopher's video on how to do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWDjdimWoMQ

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (1,314 endorsements, 78,995 downloads)
- Does exactly what it says—no bloat, just silence in combat
- Lightweight and doesn't touch other audio files
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—may not be compatible with current Fallout 4 updates or DLC
- No documentation or install instructions provided by the author
- Purely cosmetic—if you want more audio control, this won't help
For Fallout 4 players who love the ambient wasteland music but find combat music distracting or repetitive. If you're a purist who wants to hear every gunshot and footstep during fights, this is for you. Skip if you want to customize audio further or need modern compatibility.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod was last updated in 2015, check if your game version is compatible—if you have all DLC, test it early.
- Use a mod manager like Nexus Mods' Vortex to install and easily disable if you encounter issues.
- If you're on PC, you can manually place the file in your Data folder, but a mod manager is safer for tracking.
