Overview
Replaces the Gorilla Arms steampunk noises with sounds of regular fists, effectively silencing them.
On my netrunner I use Gorilla Arms only as stat sticks and to fill an implant slot. After fixing the visuals using Subtle Gorilla Arms and Hand Cyberware Removal I was left with their obnoxious sound.
While I can certainly appreciate rule of cool over realism, the constant pneumatic puffing and mechanical clanking felt a bit unimmersive especially on stealthy builds.
Requirements
TweakXL - required to load the mod.
RED4Ext - required for TweakXL.
Installation
Install with a mod manager like Vortex or MO2.
Compatibility
Most likely compatible with all mods changing Gorilla arms, unless they also change audio metadata.
Technical Details & Bugs
Sets audioWeaponConfiguration to use audio_melee_metadata_fists_normal.
No known bugs, but I want to note that I have tested the mod only on builds that don't use gorilla arms for combat (aside from choking
enemies or "Beat On The Brat" matches).
