This mod lets you replace pretty much any sound in the game with a wav file by placing them in the folder BepInEx/plugins/CustomAudio.


Sound Effect Replacement

Sound effects are organized into arrays and when a sound effect is triggered, the game chooses a random item from the list. You can either replace an entire list with your own list, or replace individual list items with your own clip.

List Replacement

To replace an entire list, use the following syntax:

list_<number>_<effectName>.wav

<number> can actually be whatever you want, it's just to allow for multiple files with the same effect name.

<effectName> is the name of the effect.

Here's an example, replacing footsteps with male screams:




Effect Replacement

To replace a single audio clip in an effect, use the following syntax:

effect_<clipName>.wav

<clipName> is the name of the clip. Any clip with this name in any sound effect will be replaced with the file.

Sound effects are too numerous to list. If you want to find a specific sound effect, you can turn on the config variable DumpSFX and look at the console when the effect is played.


Music Replacement

Use the following naming convention for wav files that replace music tracks:

music_<clipName>.wav

Replace <clipName> with the game's AudioClip name.

Here is a list of music track names as of writing:
