Ambient Wasteland was a mod for Fallout 3 and NV that added ambient sounds to the wasteland ranging from gunfights to birdcall. This mod aims to add all that back into Fallout 4. Fallout 4's ambient sound system works differently than older Fallout games, as in games like Fallout 3 sounds would get randomly picked from a folder. In Fallout 4, it's much more organized, and ambient sounds have records, so it had to be decided which sounds are appropriate on a region/environmental basis. Generally, foothills (area around Sanctuary, etc) are the most diverse. You'll hear packs of dogs, distant quick gunfights, bugs, snakes, and birds. Forested areas like Fort Hagen are where you'll start to hear more wildlife like loons, bears, mountain cats, hawks, ravens, etc. Lastly, swamps focus heavily on haunting birds like loons and crows, as well as tons of insect sounds. In the cities, you'll hear shattering glass, falling metal, and junk clanging around among the moaning buildings. The same can be said for Diamond City with the addition of dogs and cats.

Drag and drop the contents of the mod into your game's "Data" folder,
and activate with the mod manager of your choice. Alternatively, install
directly through Mod Organizer 2.
