📋 About This Mod

## Introduction

- A10 SFX overhaul for Eagle Strafing Run and other close air support SFX overhaul

- This mixing of my SFX is opinionated, and it's under assumption of playing without music,

and with only environment ambience SFX and fire fight SFX.

- Added a experimental / alternative version:

- this experimental version make impact ending echo and tail sounds a little more stand out / has a little of more breathing room within the engine sound

- this experimental version replace and adjust the distance of cannon firing loop SFX

- you probably won't notice much change unless you pay much attention

## Installation

- Please use the latest version of Helldivers 2 Manager.

- All SFXs from the following game

- Insurgency: Sandstorm by NewWorld Interactive

- Squad and Squad 44 by OffWorld Interactive

- Author of hd2-audio-modder and audio modding guides, RaidingForPants. I would not create

this mod, and figure out some of bugs I encounter when creating this mod without her help.
