About this mod
==============
If you like shooting weapons in GTA4 and want to feel like your holding and shooting the real thing this mod is for you. I made this mod because i didn't like original weapon sounds for GTA4 and no other sound mods have satisfied my crave for realistic sounds so decide to make my own. I used many HD gun videos from youtube with the gun sounds i was looking for and edited and combined to make sounds that i liked or best i could make that sound realistic. If you think you can make better realistic sounds you can use my sounds to give you somewhere to start or if you want to make Realistic/Fantasy style sound go ahead but remember to give me credit. Just don't reupload the exact same sounds as mine. You can upload to other GTA websites but remember to give credit! Thanks for downloading & hope you enjoy.

Installation:

   ====="You'll need 'SparkIV' and 'GTA-IVaud Editor' to install this sound mod"=====

1. Open SparkIV & goto the following directory
    
   'GTAIV/PC/Audio/Sfx/resident.rpf'

----open resident.rpf then export & backup 'WEAPONS.ivaud' and 'EXPLOSIONS.ivaud'

    "Note" - EXPLOSIONS.ivaud is only for the Grenade sounds!!!

2. Open GTA-IVaud Editor then with this tool look for the location where you exported your 'WEAPONS.ivaud' & 'EXPLOSIONS.ivaud' files

3. Open 'WEAPONS.ivaud' & 'EXPLOSIONS.ivaud' then replace the sound files in the .ivaud with the ones of your choice in the 'Realistic Weapon Sounds Mod v1' folder
 
   "example" Replace 'M4_SHOT1_L' from WEAPONS.ivaud with a 'M4_SHOT1_L' that's in the realistic weapons mod folder

4. Save after your done importing new files in GTA-IVaud Editor

5. with SparkIV 'Import' and replace the new edited .ivaud files then save

6. Exit SparkIV and GTA-IVaud Editor then start GTA 4

I'm not the best at giving instructions so i hope everyone who uses this is familiar with SparkIV & GTA-IVaud Editor if you're still confused how to install search youtube to find out how to use those tools. Cheers.
