The Best Fallout 4 Sound Mods
If we admit to ourselves, Fallout 4 doesn’t have the best sound optimization. Some of the audio aspects are poorly designed and they lead to some truly unrealistic results. Other sounds aren’t tweaked at all to suit the surrounding or just straight up misplaced. That’s why a lot of players search for alternative solutions to fix this problem. Luckily, we have a bunch of helpful sounds mods to help you get the best out of the audio in Fallout 4!
Enhance the Quality of Fallout 4 with These Sound Mods
Pip-Boy Flashlight (Pipboy – Power Armor – Lamp Overhaul)
First of all, here is something that is overall helpful for all players, regardless of their experience in the Fallout series. The Pip-Boy Flashlight mod is a completely new light for Fallout 4 that focuses on illuminating what’s in front of you. The corners of your screen will remain in the shadows, making the experience very realistic.
Quieter Settlements
Quieter Settlements is an awesome mod if you want to get rid of the excessive sound clutter that comes with building a settlement. Sometimes it can be too noisy with all the machines and engines running, plus the NPCs. So if you find it hard to focus this is a mod that will tone everything down.
Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul
And here is a mod that completely replaces the unrealistic ambience sound from Fallout 4. The base game is filled with audio inconsistencies and this mod does a fantastic job at fixing every problem.
