Better Smashed Head sounds

I need to test a little more, but aparently it overrides the deaf and hard of hearing trait(that dampens all sound ingame), so it's all muffled, and then suddently a loud crunch

But aside that, a great MOD, variety is gold!

Very gud

it's true my friend ;) i believe too ^^

proper zombies don't have a beating heart, so they won't have the required blood pressure for arterial spurting to be a thing. i'm pretty sure a real corpse that got reanimated by some unknown force would barely bleed from any cuts because of that, though blood would come pouring out like when you burst an egg yolk if the head gets smashed open. the effect does sound good though, regardless of its plausibility.

it's simulated arterial blood, personally I like it, it's quite rare to hear it, but if a lot of people point it out to me, yes I would reduce it
Jaxx - pshoooo 20 Sep @ 3:38pm 
the new ones are generally pretty good, but is it too much of an ask to reduce the duration of that specific long blade one that makes it sound like the zombies are pissing on our leg
AuD  [author] 20 Sep @ 6:38am 
just with this mod, you will get 35 différents sounds, very so variation.

@all i hope you like the new sounds, because i love it!
Jarrod 19 Sep @ 4:44pm 
Nice! I'll add this as well then :)
AuD  [author] 19 Sep @ 5:33am 
@Jarrod yes

UPDATE : More Gore !

After a long real-world trampling test, I decided to make the latest sounds more gory (those from the latest update), bloodier for some, more cracking for others, more arterial ^^

Give me your feelings if this is too much.
AuD  [author] 17 Sep @ 12:57am 
UPDATE: 15 new sounds is added
Jarrod 11 Sep @ 12:28am 
Is this compatible with "More Zombie Death Sounds"? That one adds more variety of multiple kill sounds, not just stomps, but I'd love more variation in everything lol

deliciously chunky sounding

Shame that these are not affected by Hard of Hearing muffling.
VH ANG3LOFDAD3AD 4 Aug @ 11:44am 
crunchy!
breadboy 16 Jun @ 11:43am 
needs more crunch bc rn it sounds like you're peeling cabbage
GarryGoCrazy 1 May @ 4:09pm 
It won't show up in my mod list even after subscribing

that gif is brutal :spiffo:

The vanilla version sounds exaggeratedly loud and crunchy, I think this version sounds really good and realistic, Maybe if you make it sounds a little bit more loud than the impact of the hits it would be kinda of more satisfying to kill them.
xJackPoKe 21 Mar @ 9:29am 
I don't think it sounds more crunchy, but I think it sounds more realistic and better, really good job!
European Union 7 Mar @ 3:33am 
mmm, just like cabbage
Arès 22 Feb @ 1:46pm 
So I tested the mode and the sound is perfect, I thought it was too loud, it no longer bothers my ears like with Vanilla! Is it possible to adjust the crackling sound in the audio setting? Finally, it's just an idea so that everyone can turn the sound up or down as they wish. Thank :steamhappy:
Hasa 20 Feb @ 5:05am 
This is rly good, rly feel like this should be vanilla :steamthumbsup:
Vanquisher02 16 Feb @ 7:30am 
hi ! thx for editing you're mod, my ears really love it ! and to answer to youre question : no, the volume is not too loud for me, the volume is perfect and fit with the gameplay
AuD  [author] 8 Feb @ 3:57am 
ty , but, the volume is not too loud? too raise? for example, in a vehicle, I saw a video on YouTube and I feel like the volume is a little high when we shoot the zombie with car, I haven't played with this mod yet, but if I find the sound is loud , I will decrease slightly, -10%
Liam 2 Feb @ 7:42pm 
great work on the mods, they are some of the best sound mods for a game I have found
kiachaelchild 3 Jan @ 12:21pm 
Sounds really good bro
kiachaelchild 3 Jan @ 12:21pm 
YIPPEEEEEEE
AuD  [author] 3 Jan @ 10:05am 
UPDATE : Subtly more crunchy. ( tell me if the volume is too hight or if you prefer the old version )
AuD  [author] 3 Jan @ 5:26am 
new demo for next update soon >> https://youtu.be/gWEIdF6DxXA
kiachaelchild 2 Jan @ 8:04pm 
Sounds good man take all the time you need
AuD  [author] 2 Jan @ 1:47am 
the crunch will coming, but I'm sick at the moment, I don't have the head for creation, but it will be reviewed...

thank you for your comments, I take all your advice ;).

Has a bug where it disables most sounds in the game. You dont make sound but the sound of opening a window still works. That sucks. Also this was also a cause of having 2 different zombie killing sounds "More Zombie Death Sounds" :sacrificed::spiffo:
kiachaelchild 30 Dec, 2023 @ 10:07am 
little more crunch and its literally perfect
kai freeland 29 Dec, 2023 @ 4:50am 
nice and juicy LOL
Aves 25 Dec, 2023 @ 8:33pm 
I think the issue these kill replaces have isint the loss of the "crunch" but more that its harder to tell when something is killed. The crunch is feedback for the player. Without it, theres some detriment to gameplay. However, perhaps in a mega hardcore modlist it wouldn't be bad at all!

The mod itself is well done! I just see that people have criticism thats in the right ballpark, but not quite on the money I think. Great work either way. Hope that rambling made any sense.
Redacted 24 Dec, 2023 @ 8:41pm 
I like how it's nice and juicy, but I don't like how it lost it's crunch.
Tenebrous Path 24 Dec, 2023 @ 8:17am 
Very satisfying sound effect and much better than vanilla. Well done!
Kapereros 24 Dec, 2023 @ 7:26am 
Nah bro it doesnt make the satisfying crunching sound
KodeMan 24 Dec, 2023 @ 6:43am 
Another great mod by a great modder!
Mesrszmit 23 Dec, 2023 @ 2:10pm 
Nah, vanilla skull crash is too goat
pogboy78 23 Dec, 2023 @ 12:59pm 
this is really cool and all but it's hard too hear when they die
AuD  [author] 23 Dec, 2023 @ 1:41am 
@B O B c a t yes compatible
AuD  [author] 23 Dec, 2023 @ 1:38am 
Well I tell you, I'm going to review these ons after Christmas, I'm going to add a few broken bones friends, don't worry, you're going to like it!
BOBcat 23 Dec, 2023 @ 1:37am 
Lovely. This one has more variety of sounds than More Zombie Death Sounds

Would they be compatible though? Mod I mentioned above also has lines for "HeadStab" event.
jeremy 22 Dec, 2023 @ 9:59pm 
bones do not get squishy over time
Idiot With A Gun 22 Dec, 2023 @ 10:46am 
honestly i like vanilla more, sounds like your actually breaking bone
I<3Cats 22 Dec, 2023 @ 6:42am 
@5zymOn3K Their zombies, they're skulls are squishy, and decomposed.
Slayer 22 Dec, 2023 @ 1:39am 
Sounds lovely :)
