📋 About This Mod
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT
Barooom, if you will.
•-•-• Personalize Eagle-1 with multiple audio options. •-•-•
If you don't want her using the GAU-8 Avenger or TF34-GE-100 Turbofan Engines, you can disable them independently by selecting the corresponding options found in the GUI of Arsenal.
Options include disabling specifically the custom fly-by and forward gun + bullet impact sounds.
Also included is the option to toggle on a volume increase for Eagle Cluster Bomb's deployment sounds, the originals are very quiet.
•-•-• "Where did you get these sounds?" •-•-•
This mod's sound effects were taken from "Insurgency: Sandstorm" and random YouTube videos of actual A-10 Thunderbolts performing both fly-bys and gun-runs. They function as a great baseline since the only Thunderbolt I have around here is the one on my computer case.
I go in and combine them with Helldiver's own sound effects with a bunch of tweaking and post processing to give it my own spin.
This mod will sound similar to other mods who use the same original sound effects however I have spent a whole bunch of time to differentiate it from its peers. If something isn't to your liking, make a post asking for a tweak and I will consider releasing an optional version of the mod with that tweak. If enough people ask for one particular thing, I'll compile it into a full update.
•-•-• I do not own the original sounds! •-•-•
