Quieter Chainsaw Sounds
Left 4 Dead 2
Makes the default chainsaw sounds quieter so you can actually hear yourself think.

I'll be honest that I don't really know what (or how loud) a chainsaw like this sounds like. But although the audio is lower in volume now, it's also on the weak and unimpressive side. I honestly couldn't care less if I couldn't hear someone talking, I can usually barely hear them anyway. But it does help hear the in-game sutff better.
So I wonder if the audio for the chainsaw could rather be replaced or maybe even edited.
I wish I could get my hands on the original audio-file and tinker with it, cause I work with audio a lot.
The audio from Valve sounds clipped and thus distorted, which means it's often harsh and not dynamic.
If the original audio IS clipped, it should be replaced, if it's not, it can be made better a lot easier.
This is a useful mod, but it also kind of removes the power from the chainsaw, at least in terms of sound.
Now I wonder, could you make a mod that makes the Jukebox louder (without clipping/distorting)?
It could easily be increased by say 50% or something, I wouldn't mind still hearing it down a road. Unless that makes it really loud (in an unpleasant way) when you stand near it.
I'd like to see them same for the other weapons, the sounds are really loud and harsh. And even though I've been playing this game for years, it still annoys me and I'm pretty sure it's not good to my ears.
I'm looking into sound-mods, but I'm not sure if that will cover all the weapons.

Finally, i can actually hear my friends talk when voice chatting and hear them warn me that there is a smoker right behind me so i can kill it without letting it happen in the first place.

HOLY CRAP I CAN USE THE VOICE CHAT AND THE CHAINSAW AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!
Cons
NOTHING.
If you are tired of not being able to hear people telling you to duck while using the chainsaw, then download this.

Pros
- I'm not so daunted to use the chainsaw; don't have to reach for the volume buttons seconds before now. I know they're loud in real life but this is a video game and virtual life doesn't need to be vanilla chainsaw loud...
- Appears to be fully functional, perhaps in part due to it's simple ambition
Cons
- People who like loud might not like this
I'm adding this review because, well, you have earned my aural gratitude. Don't need to go deaf for video game content.
Because it meets its simple goal with a minimally sized vpk and so far hasn't presented any problems, I'd have to say this earns a rare 100 from me. If there's nothing noticeably wrong with this, what justification do I have to say 99?

Pros
You can hear other Special Infected more easily now when you're using the chainsaw.
Cons
None that I can find.
A great mod for people who like to use the chainsaw, or who have friends who do. :P
Even if you don't usually use the chainsaw, this mod is handy. You never know when someone decides "Hey, I'm gonna use the chainsaw riiiight next to my teammates".

THANK THE HEAVEN
Before, I was just using custom sound mods.
Does exactly what it says in the title
Cons
Now, I need this for Rochelle, haha.
Great job, it works and is perfect if you hate pulling out your chainsaw b/c of the noise.
