Restores weapon reload sounds for Fallout 3 weapons in Anniversary Animation Pack.

Thanks to hitman47101, we can all enjoy the excellent Anniversary Anim Pack.
The only problem with the new animations is that the reloading sounds for some of the Fallout 3 weapons are lost.
If you use Fallout 3 Weapons Restoration by Yukichigai you already know the drill: in F3 there was a single reloading sound for every reload animation while in NV it's split in three different sounds (this was made due to agility and new perks increasing reload speed).
Since the single sound from Fallout 3 is still present in the game's files, what I did is to substitute the new sounds with the old one, sometimes adjusting the timing of it to better match the animation. These modifications was made in the reload animation nifs created by hitman47101.
Sadly, the issue with the original files persists: reloading sound may be out of sync with the animation if you raise your reload speed by increasing agility or adding a relevant perk. The only way to correct that would be creating new sounds with the three-part NV system; the only thing I could do was restoring the old sounds and tinkering with the timing a little.
It's a rough solution but it's better than mute reloads, I think. Anyway, the out of sync should be negligible unless you improve reload speed a lot (with agility set to max it was annoying but not that terrible).
Weapons affected:
Chinese Pistol
Dart Gun
Microwave Emitter
Combat Shotgun
Railway Rifle
Double-barrel Shotgun
Alien Disintegrator
ABOUT THE DISINTEGRATOR: it doesn't have a reloading sound at all in NV, as also pointed out by Yukichigai. What I did was using one of the three sounds for the laser rifle as a substitute (the one I thought sounded the closest to the original): another crude compromise but, again, better than nothing!
INSTALLATION
