Rationale included in file, here's the full text anyway:
Code: Select all
This pack replaces the sounds for several weapons, which's default sounds hurt
my ears while using them. The purpose of this mod is to replace them with
alternatives that do not cause hearing damage. Here are the weapons I replaced
or changed, and why:
Burst Battle Rifle
Source: Modern Warfare 2
Rationale: The default one is too low resolution and too high pitched to
equalize and fix.
Heavy Combat Shotgun
Source: Modern Warfare 2, FEAR
Rationale: I thought the new one was more fitting. It also originally had too
much treble to deal with.
Combat Shotgun
Source: Modern Warfare 2
Rationale: The original is too reliant on treble to work well, so I replaced
it. I also think the new sounds fit better together than the originals.
Gauss Rifle
Source: N/A
Rationale: I added beeps to the charge sound to make it clearer when to fire.
Laser Shotgun
Source: Halo 3
Rationale: The old sound is low resolution, unfitting, has mixed resolutions
and sounds awful. On top of all that, it relies so much on treble I can barely
even stand hearing it.
Minigun
Source: EYE Divine Cybermancy
Rationale: The old firing sound has a bit too much treble, which I could have
fixed easily, but I find EYE's sound both pleasing to the ear and amusing, so I
replaced it instead.
Nuclear Plasma Revolver
Source: N/A
Rationale: I removed the charge sounds, because they're both not useful and
*extremely* loud. I don't know why they exist.
Pistol
Source: Fallout 4
Rationale: The normal pistol sound is good, but actually a bit too strong. The
weapon is pretty weak, so it doesn't make much sense to have a very strong
sound for it, and replacing it with a weaker one actually makes it feel
stronger. The original sound was really rather loud.
Shredder Pistol
Source: N/A
Rationale: Equalized to have less higher spectrum noise. Unchanged otherwise.
Shredder Shotgun
Source: N/A
Rationale: Same as the Shredder Pistol.
Shrapnel Cannon
Source: Modern Warfare 2
Rationale: The original sound had an extreme amount of treble which was
probably the worst of the bunch. Replaced with a slightly less treble-y sound.
Storm Handcannon
Source: Killing Floor
Rationale: Very loud and grating sound. Replaced with one which feels just as
strong, but far less of that.
Storm Pistol
Source: Killing Floor
Rationale: Same as Storm Handcannon.
Battle Rifle
Source: Halo 3
Rationale: Same as the storm weapons, but the sound was also much louder and
much more grating. It doesn't work very well for an automatic weapon.
