📋 About This Mod
Introduction
In the vanilla game there are only 6 footstep sounds for each movement type and terrain, with Project Reality Footsteps FO4 there are now up to 16 sounds for each type and terrain. The sounds are way more realistic, including subtle gear and backpack rattle and such. Please adjust the volume to suit your taste in the audio settings, personally i set it to about 80%.
Snow Edition available

⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or NMM, install this mod through the manager to avoid manual file placement issues.
- Check if the Snow Edition is a separate file or an optional patch — if so, pick the one that matches your game's environment.
- Since the mod is from 2019, test it in a new game or after loading a save to ensure no conflicts with other audio mods.
