MrCUrchin Weapon SFX Overhaul

Objective

This is an attempt to make changes to the vanilla weapon and explosions sounds more realistic. I have always found the 7D2D weapon sounds to be a bit lackluster when it comes to hearing them. This Mod looks to fix this. 

The end goal for this mod is to completely overhaul every weapon fire, hit, impact sound.

For example, the pump shotgun has several components, the shot, pitch of the shot, the distance heard and SFX tied to it, the impact of the round hitting wood/concrete/dirt, etc.., the pump in/out, the shell ejection and reloading. My aim is to replace these all or at least most if need be.

The end goal for this mod after converting all the SFX is to add different sounds based on is the player in the building, how far is another player from the distance of the shot. SFX for example shooting a weapon inside should sound different than outside. Whether or not this is possible is to be determined but none the less I will work on it.

Current Features

This mod currently features all firearm weapon fire sounds for a total of 76 new SFX. High-quality sounds from my own Sound Library as well as additional sounds from Escape from Tarkov have been added into this mod to enhance the experience of the players who use it. In addition to Weapon firing sounds, I have added new Explosion SFX as well.

In case you are curious about what sounds come from where within the credits.txt file I have listed what sounds come from where. I may simplify this list in the future.

Compatible Mods

This mod is also currently compatible with any mod that uses the base game weapon sounds to use for their weapons. There will be a list below of confirmed mods that work with this mod.

I am open to expanding and enhancing other mods' SFX, however, this will only be the case if the mod creators allow altering/updating their files or they have given me permission to do so. As I do not want to change any work that another mod creator has put into this.
