X3DAudio HRTF - 3d Headphone Surround Mod

Have you ever wondered why you cannot correctly identify the direction of sounds that you hear while playing Fallout 76?

Worry not, this mod implements HRTF 3d sound technology into Fallout 76, which is also officially used in games like Counter Strike: Global Offensive, etc.

After enabling the mod, your standard 2 channel stereo headphone will turn into a monster giving full binaural hearing experience.

Just extract the contents of downloaded archive into C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda.net Launcher\games\Fallout76.

Game will automatically hook x3daudio1_x.dll, which is the interface library needed for HRTF sound calculations.

Disable if you have any external surround effect enabled. Check sticky post in comments for more troubleshooting options.

I do not own this mod. Full credits goes to Github user kosumosu who implemented x3daudio HRTF sound calculations and turned them into a .dll library that can be loaded into games easily. I'm providing this work by compiling/building the project & sharing it via NM under allowance of its copyright, also allowance of the owner of project. Copyright notice can be found below:
