Immerse yourself in a more realistic and dynamic audio experience with BetterSounds. This mod completely overhauls gun shot sounds, explosions, and environmental effects, delivering a more authentic and immersive gameplay environment.
Key Features:
Authentic Weapon Audio: Experience a vast improvement in the quality and realism of weapon sounds, including HMGs, LMGs, rifles, and more.

Compatibility:
Designed to work seamlessly with other mods, BetterSounds should be placed as the last mod in your mod order for optimal compatibility.

Compatibility:
1. **For Single Player (SP) Users:**
   - Before installing any new mods, delete any existing instances of BetterSounds (BS) and Enhanced Weapon Immersion (EWI).
   - Re-install BS and EWI as the last mods in your mod order.
2. **For Server Administrators:**
   - Configure the mod order on your server to ensure that BetterSounds and Enhanced Weapon Immersion are loaded last.
   - This step is crucial for maintaining compatibility across all client mods.
