📋 About This Mod
I made this mod for personal use but seeing that there are not many mods that do something similar I decided to share it.
Originally intended to be used alongside mods like zombie walker or any other that adds a lot of feral ghouls to the map, this mod tries to create a more terrifying sound environment, adding distant grunts or heartbreaking screams.
But it is not limited to that, you can also hear sounds of distant animals, some gun shots and more.
Requires Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul All dlc

The video belongs to version 1. 0, in version 1. 1 the chances of hearing the different sounds is at least 90% lower
I made the optional version to use with Night of the Creeps
I also use True 3D Sound for Headphones

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,861 endorsements and 329k downloads—clearly a lot of people dig it
- Simple concept: just adds new ambient sounds, so it's easy to understand what you're getting
- Last updated in 2021, so it's been around a while and likely stable for most setups
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021—might not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 updates or DLC
- No sound samples or previews, so you're taking a leap of faith on the audio quality
For Fallout 4 players who want to freshen up the Commonwealth's ambient audio without overhauling the whole game. If you're tired of the same old background noise and want a bit more atmosphere, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for a comprehensive audio overhaul or need detailed documentation.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple sound mod, you can install it manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 is safer for easy uninstallation.
- Check if the mod requires any DLC or if it's compatible with your game version—since it's from 2021, test it early to ensure no conflicts with your current setup.
- If you're using other audio mods, load order might matter; place this one after other sound mods to avoid overwriting.
