📋 About This Mod
I'm a huge fan of the minigun, both irl and in films, and when I first heard the vanilla minigun sound in FO4, I was disappointed. Sure, it sounds 'alright' but I always thought it lacked that 'oompf' that really makes it feel like a heavy weapon.
After browsing the nexus for a long time to find a replacement, but never finding anything that satisfied me, I decided to try my own hand at making one.
And here we are. I present to you the very first Terminator minigun sound replacement, and it comes in four three different variants - similar to each other but still slightly different.
It may not exactly be the most realistic sounding minigun, but it's still my preferred one, which is why I'm sharing it in case anyone else feels the same way.
I'd quickly like to add that this is my very first mod EVER and as such there may very well be bugs/issues. Please let me know if you find any.
Another quick note: I tested the sounds ingame on a vanilla installation and I think it sounds pretty decent, but you may have a different experience if you use any mods that alter sound such as "Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul."
Thank you for checking out my mod, I hope you'll like it :)
UPDATE: I've removed one of the sound variants for the time being due to... complications :/
This audio mod replaces the vanilla minigun sound in Fallout 4 with the iconic Terminator 2 minigun sound, giving your heavy weapons a cinematic boost. It's a simple, lightweight download for fans of the movie who want that classic 'cha-ching' feel.
