Description:

***Sound related Submod for Valour made by Snake***

Valour is without a doubt the most comprehensive mod for Men of War Assault Squad 2. However in all seriousness most of the sounds in that particular mod are underwhelming (in my opinion some are even worse than in the vanilla game) – this sound overhaul seeks to rectify this issue. This mod changes almost all sound files to bring you a balanced mix of realism and hollywood epicness.

This mod’s features include:

– All changed sound files have higher bitrate than vanilla
– All changed sound files are less compressed and more dynamic, covering a wider sound spectrum
– Most gun sounds are either all new or have been heavily remixed/remastered
– All guns of caliber 20mm and larger have a distinct "distant sound" as well as ambient reverb covering the whole map
– All new (less random and more homogeneous) detonation sounds
– Overhauled tank hit and ricochet sounds
– All vehicles now have idling engines when not moving
– Improved engine, turret and track sounds where necessary
– Sound related changes for historical accuracy
– Tanks of all additional factions which previously had regular sounding vocal emotes now have voices with a radio filter
– Annoying sound file "cracks" of existing vocal emotes have been fixed
– Goofy out of place sounding files have been removed or replaced
– Additional vocal emotes for Germany, USA and Britain
– Improved vocal emotes for Finland (from CTA Gates of Hell)
– And more…

How to install:
1. Subscribe
2. Wait for it to download
3. Start the game, go to options/mods and make sure that #valour is already activated (if not activate this one first)
4. Activate Snake’s Sound Pack (if the mod is not there restart the game)
5. Play

NOTE:
The sound mixing for the files of this mod has been done in accordance with a stereophonic sound system. In order for this mod to work as intended it is crucial that you play either through stereo speakers with a subwoofer or high quality headphones with good bass response. When played through bad headphones or laptop speakers it will sound thin and grating.

ATTENTION:
As this mod messes with a sizable number of game set and entitiy files you will not be able to play it with others in multiplayer if they don’t have the same mod installed as well.

It can happen that an automatic mod update doesn’t fully replace the previous files thus causing a "Resource Desync" when wanting to play with others. If this happens it’s easiest to manually delete the mod’s folder in the game files and re-download the latest version of the mod.

This is a submod for #valour – It will not work with the vanilla version of MOWAS 2. Normally it can be combined with other valour submods, so far no bugs are known.

Obviously I do not take any credit for the works regarding the main mod – all credit goes to the original creators.

If you like this mod, please leave a thumbs up – I have spent well over 200 hours and amassed a sound library of over 6GB for this – Your support will be greatly appreciated!
