Fallout 76 Mod: Silent C.A.M.P.

Silence the generators, wind turbines, cicadas and crickets at your C.A.M.P.

About the mod

I am not a fan of the constant drone of generators while crafting at my C.A.M.P. I was particularly turned off by the scraping and rusty screeching noises put out by the wind turbines. Since the other mod out there did not eliminate the wind turbine noise and removed turret noises (something I did not want to remove), I chose to create my own mod. I’ve been using it for a while now and just decided to upload it.

I have since added silencers for Cicadas, Crickets and now other C.A.M.P. machines (which I may actually start using myself). Each type of noise is in a separate file, allowing you to pick and choose which sounds you want silenced.

I replace the game audio with tiny, completely silent audio files, and as such, I will not be producing other versions at varying volume levels. I will take requests to silence other annoying noises.

Installation and removal

All of my audio mods are compatible with the Fallout 76 extension for Vortex, but you are still required to add the filenames into your Fallout76Custom.ini file. The example below is just for the Silent Generators mod, so you will need to add each of the ba2 files you download.

This will obviously get a lot simpler if/when Vortex fully supports Fallout 76.

Manual installation

  1. Extract SilentGenerators.ba2 to your Fallout76 Data folder.
  2. Add the following line to the bottom of the [Archive] section in your Fallout76Custom.ini file:
sResourceArchive2List = SeventySix - ATX_Main.ba2, SeventySix - ATX_Textures.ba2, SilentGenerators.ba2

If you already have a sResourceArchive2List in your Fallout76Custom.ini file, then just add the following to the existing string of mods (without the quotes):

, SilentGenerators.ba2

Manual removal

  1. Remove the SilentGenerators.ba2 file from your Fallout76 Data folder.
  2. Remove , SilentGenerators.ba2 from the sResourceArchive2List string of your Fallout76Custom.ini file.

Compatibility

These mods are not compatible with any mod that changes the sound of the various C.A.M.P. machines or insects.

Disclaimer

Currently, Bethesda has only mentioned that using mods may lead to game functioning improperly. You can read their statement here.

Note that this mod simply changes some sounds and offers the player no benefit or advantage over other players while playing Fallout 76. However, you should use this mod at your own risk.
