Modder “SkyBorik” has released a cool new mod for Fallout 4 that many audio fans will love. This mod adds higher-quality voices with less compression, so the characters sound clearer. It’s a great mod for anyone still playing Fallout 4.
Going into more details, the PS4 version of the game featured better sound quality as it used Sony’s proprietary audio format. So, this mod basically ports the PS4 audio to PC.
As the modder has showcased, the vanilla version has a lot of data missing. And any sound higher than 12kHz is completely cut off. Below, you can find two graphs that showcase how much better the mod is compared to the vanilla PC version. At the end of the article, you can find a comparison video between the vanilla and the modded voices.
From what I can see, this mod is 12GB in size. So, for some of you, these improvements may not be worth it. On the other hand, those who want a better audio experience should download it right now. You can get the mod from here.
If you are into Fallout 4, you might also want to check out these other mods for it. For instance, there is a LOD mod that reduces distant object/shadow/texture pop-ins. Then we have the Disk Cache Enabler Mod. There’s also a mod that adds ragdoll physics and collisions to dead bodies. Another amazing mod is this one that fixes the game’s long loading times. DirectHit is a mod that overhauls the AI of enemies. And let’s not forget this mod that adds real locational damage to all enemies. We also have this mod that adds to the game 10 driveable cars/vehicles with Havok physics, as well as this Enhanced Movement Mod. Modders have even brought Fallout: New Vegas’ skill system to it.
To improve the graphics or performance, you can use the following mods. If you don’t like this latest HD mod, you can either download this 8K Texture Pack or this 41GB 4K Texture Pack, which optimizes all 40,962 textures. There’s also a mod that improves the faces of over 1450 NPCs. Plus, there is a mod that adds support for NVIDIA DLSS 2, AMD FSR 2, and Intel XeSS. And let’s not forget the free AMD FSR 3.0 Frame Gen Mod.
America Rising 2 is another fan DLC/expansion mod that integrates the Enclave faction into the main story with 24 main quests. Hunter’s Abyss and Caves Of The Commonwealth are two other fan expansion mods. Let’s also not forget Fallout London, which looks promising. Misery Island is another DLC-sized fan expansion. You can also download Sim Settlements 2 – Chapter 3, Whispering Hills, which is a cool Silent Hill mod, and The Wilderness Mod. Plus, there is a horror quest mod that is inspired by Lovecraft, Resident Evil, and Dead Space. A few months ago, we also shared a brand new dark quest mod, called Project A.R.E.S. Let’s also not forget Atom’s Retribution, which offers 24+ hours of gameplay and 40+ new quests. Oh, and the Mass Effect Evolution Mod is once again available for download.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
