[]F-16 Strafing sounds(wowwe)
[
]F-16 Flyby sounds (only for the strafing run!)This mod replaces the Eagle-1 Strafing run sound with a F-16 Strafing run sound (Might be quite loud). This causes the Eagle strafing run to sound more "aggressive" due to how the F-16 sounds like when it Strafes. Please Tell me anything I could do better with this mod. There is a quite of lack of F-16 strafing sounds so I had to try my best with what I had. Hopefully it isnt too loud.
Installation
Just add it to the Helldivers 2 Mod Manager and activate it. probably shouldn't use it at the same time as any other mod that modifies the sound of the strafing run.
Audio SorucesI got the sounds for the F-16 from the strafing runs in This video and also This video (I couldnt get DCS sounds myself as I do not own DCS or really have a strong interest of getting it)
But sides that Massive thanks to FaithfulStorm80 for making his audio modding tutorial video as it helped me get started on this mod which can be found Here if you would like to make your own audio mods
