📋 About This Mod
Coming at the same time as a large update to Lived In North Vegas Square is this small ambience mod.
Inspired by Brightweight Strip Overhaul's great use of sound to add to the immersion of the strip this mod aims to make the player able to hear the strip tempting them from the outside while also adding ambience to Freeside and displaying the rampant shift in wealth and quality of life between Freeside and the Strip itself.
Thanks to AshenBonfire for permission to use the sound fx in Brightweight Strip Overhaul to make this mod. You can hear the Strip from the following locations:
1. The North Gate in Freeside
2. If you listen closely, by the Gunrunners shop
3. Outside of Camp McCarran by the ranger sign.
4. In spots by the NCR Sharecropper farm and Monorail entrance.
