📋 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
