L4D2 Reloading! Sound Mod (Left 4 Dead 2)

I made this one day because I was sick of cartoony reload sounds. I have added a few gunfire sound replacements but only on the SCAR and silenced SMG for a deeper effect with boosted volume taken from personal experience. EVERY guns foleys have been replaced except the auto-shotgun and hunting rifle which I will probably update in the future.I do not plan to add any more gunfire sounds outside of what is present. I have been through the files and due to file length constraints cannot seem to improve on Valves gunfire sounds. Report any artifacts or bugs and I will happily try to fix them.

Pros

The reloading sound is amazing, very realistic instead of the Left 4 Dead 2 sounds. It fits the guns reloading very much.

Cons

The sounds for the SCAR and Silenced SMG are not that good in my opinion, but GCF Scape should fix that ( -0.1 )

The mod is amazing and I'm looking forward in to using it more/

I don't like many of these sounds.
The silenced smg was really good but the reloading for some weapons doesn't fit the game.
The Sniper fire is horrible.
The pistol reload sound is not good.
I find the Scar fire atrocious, yet I like the Scar reload sound.
Better off releasing individual replacement to allow people to CHOOSE what they like; we have various other weapon sound modifications you know.

Pros

~Great sounds for reloading and for the AK and Silenced MG ~Felt a lot better playing without the cartoonish sounds, as you said

Cons

~I think a better firing sound for the regular SMG would be good

Would you consider releasing a version of this without the gunfire elements? This would make the mod theoretically compatible with other weapons sound mods, enabling the reloads to be heard with the user's choice of replacement sounds.

Whlle I have found the mod to be more or less compatible with my other sound mods, I also find your choice of Silenced SMG not my flavour (as it doesn't sound like the MAC-10's suppressor is being effective). The SCAR replacement is nice but too loud, in my opinion, to be a part of a ed panoply of noise. Unfortunately for me, your mod currently overrides my preferred sound.

Pros

The reloading sounds are really nice. Much better than Valve's. Silenced SMG has a great gunfire sound, actually.

Cons

Except for the SMG, the other two gunfire sounds were barely standable. Perhaps you could change it?

I like the idea of it, although it needs more polishing. Hopefully I'll change my review soon :D

Pros

Love the reloading for the pistols much deeper audio for guns

Cons

personally can't stand the sound of the military sniper, just doesn't feel right

overall great mod, download it! Can only hope that the sniper's audio will be changed...

By Mr._All_XYZ August 2011

Pros

Really nice reloading sounds, which contribute to greater immersion in the game (as promised)

Cons

Awful flat sound of pistol gunfire. I had to turn off your mod because I had my own sounds for some guns.

Well...I think that if you have called your mod Reloading Sounds Mod then you'd better replace only reloading sounds and nothing else.
