That worked thanks. After playing with headphones I can now hear that there is a actually rain SFX with the mod but it is just really quiet and mostly gets drowned out by other environment sounds. Even when it's supposed to be raining heavily during a fierce storm it sounds like a gentle shower.

It also looks like sometimes when you save while it is raining and load it up again the sound is gone completely. This could have been an issue with the vanilla game though.

I'd recommend that anyone that downloads this switches back to the vanilla rain sound by deleting the rain.ogg files. Compare for yourself and hear the difference.

First of all I'd just like to thank you for your efforts with this mod.

However, I have one massive gripe with it. Where have the sound effects gone when it rains!? It sounds amazing in the vanilla especially when there is a storm and really adds to the atmosphere as you can hear the rain pouring down around you. Since your mod is supposed to enhance the whole atmospheric experience I'm really surprised this wasn't fixed and nobody else seems to have picked up on this or commented on it! I foolishly didn't play the game vanilla on first playthrough so always assumed that the rain just didn't make any sound.

There is also an issue when it gets foggy where there is a large black box in the sky where the sun should be and also directly in front of the stalker in the fog. Turning off Sun rays and Sun shadow makes it go away so I imagine it is some kind of conflict with the sun and the fog effect. It sucks that I either have to mess around with the settings or save and reload the game to get it to go away (and then the fog is gone entirely).

It really is a shame that these issues will never be fixed because everything else about the mod is superb.
