📋 About This Mod
Autominators
Terminator Music Theme + Plasma Weapon SFX + HK Drone SFX
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This mod is a Terminator theme music to replace Automatons cues of:
Mission Objective Complete
Extraction-Lift off / Debriefing
-------------------------------------------------------------
Helldiver's Weapon SFX Replaced by plasma SFX (PLAS Weapon so far)
Terminator plasma weapon SFX replacing Automaton's weapon SFX
Terminator Hunter Killer Drone SFX replacing Automaton's gunship SFX
______________________________________________________________________________
The mod consists segments of T1, T2 and Terminator Resistance. Plus fan made scores for Helldiving, Extraction and LiftOff/Debriefing
There are over 50 different segments, but I randomized the battle and ambients tracks.
I edited some of the segment for smoother transition with Audacity.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 109 endorsements and nearly 7k downloads—people are actually using this.
- Covers a wide range of audio cues, from music to weapon sounds, giving a cohesive Terminator vibe.
- Recent update (May 2026) means it's likely still compatible with the current game version.
⚠️ Cons
- Only the PLAS weapon gets the plasma SFX treatment—other Helldiver weapons are untouched, so you'll hear a mix of old and new sounds.
- Automaton weapon SFX replacement is incomplete—the description cuts off, so you might not get full coverage.
- As with any audio mod, there's a risk of conflicts with other sound mods or future game updates breaking it.
For Helldivers 2 players who want a Terminator-themed audio overhaul, especially fans of the franchise who enjoy immersive sound design. If you're looking for a complete weapon SFX replacement for all weapons, this might disappoint since only PLAS is covered. Skip if you prefer the original game audio or want a more comprehensive sound mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the mod files in the correct game directory (usually the 'data' folder) to avoid issues.
- If you're using other audio mods, consider testing this one alone first to ensure no conflicts.
- Since the mod replaces music and SFX, you can preview the changes by playing a mission and listening for the new cues.
