I already have tinnitus, I don't need a video game to simulate it for me.
This mod:
Removes the tinnitus ringing sfx from cop flashbangs
Removes the tinnitus ringing and echo sound sfx from player concussion grenades and replaces it with the "downed and unconscious" muted-sound fadeout sfx instead
This mod does not remove the visual effect or the sound-fade (muting all other ingame sounds) effect, so it does not give you any advantage except that you might not get a headache while playing from getting flashbanged anymore.
This mod gives the sound-fade effect to friendly concussion grenades (to replace the irritating sound echo and ringing being removed), although the effect is somewhat less pronounced than from enemy flashbangs, much like the original effect.
Installation:
Like all BLT mods, extract the .zip file into your "mods" folder.
