Realistic Reverb & Ambience - The sliders have been set at what i would consider the closest to real for all senarios and locations. Don't have to adjust based on location because somethings too loud or broken. Still has good dynamics.
Ambient Wasteland Redone - Removed 'distracting' noises flys, mozzies, dogs, wolves, coyotes, bears, bombs, glass, gunfire, moans, breathing, deathclaw noises in radstorms.
- Ambient Wasteland
- Realistic Reverb and Ambience Overhaul
- Physics Patch if required
- NPC Footstep Patch if required
Adjusted chances of sounds playing back to vanilla levels so its less spammy.
Adjusted volumes of some sounds cicadas reduced in some areas to blend better with background audio.
Together this means you get a clean vanilla audio with some extra birds cicadas etc in certain areas, but if you hear running or gunfire or explosions its actually a threat or something going on.
Patches and Fixes for all DLC have been included, Vault Patch from jakelad & GINGAs compat edits for echos and double ups of audio when using True storms.
Things not fixed are the Reverb slider saving position, this is why the mod is a set and forget I've tried to set up so you don't need to adjust anything just install and go for the best reverb ratio in all locations.
