About this mod

When you've heard the Revolutionary Re-enactors in Concord's museum 32 times for 32 new characters, that might be enough of that.

Permissions and credits
*WARNING* - version 1.0, posted last night, had an error which has been fixed. It included one directory from my other mod, Shut Up Redeye. Version 1.1 has *replaced* version 1.0 in the downloads section and details are in the comments section (I didn't see any reason to preserve the error version).

---

For people who start a lot of new characters, the Concord Museum of Freedom is very familiar territory. Perhaps too familiar. If you can't stand hearing "You lobster-backed knaves!" ONE MORE TIME, then this mod is for you.

It's a simple loose-file override that replaces the historical re-enactment dialogue with 1-second silent files (completely empty files don't seem to work). The "full" version includes the fife-and-drum music for the upstairs mural. I made a separate version with only voices and cheers because the mural music is *probably* used elsewhere in the game.
Otherwise, just install with NMM, manually with NMM, or manually without NMM. Or MO. Or standing on your head, you be you!

It *may* also not take effect at least until you leave and re-enter the cell you're in (the game seems to cache some sounds in a cell).

Mods / Utilities I used creating this:

Unfuzer by greentea101  (note this is a Skyrim utility)
BSA Browser (with BA2 Support) by AlexxEG
MultiXWM by Raxdiam
Audacity or similar audio editor
Also worth checking out: FO4 Voice File Reference Tool, for finding the BA2 file name for dialogue

Micro-tutorial: Basically, I extracted the voices needed using BSA Browser, used Unfuzer to extract the files from FUZ archives, replaced all the wav files with a 1-second silent file (16 bit signed PCM, 44khz) - a knowledge of command line utilities and batch renaming saves a lot of time here. 

I left the files loose because the game did *not* like when I recombined them (could be the files or it could be that Unfuzer is made for Skyrim). 

I converted the same 1-second file to XWM with MultiXWM, made several copies, and renamed them to match the music files.

Other mods by me:

Shut Up, Redeye (put Nuka World's DJ on mute)
