📋 About This Mod
AUDIBLE PASS THROUGH BUSHES SOUNDS
1. DESCRIPTION
A simple mod that makes sounds when player passes through bushes audible. By default, they are there, but are so quited they were basically inaudible. Volume of the sound depends wether the player is running, walking or sneaking. With running being the loudest and sneaking being the most quiet. Sounds were also converted to stereo from mono. Doesn't work on other actors besides player.
