Notes
---------------------------

- Installing "weapons.oac" OVERWRITES ALL WEAPON SOUNDS to VANILLA GTA V SOUNDS, with only the default pistol's gun sound being replaced with IV'S Glock sound. 

This is due to me being limited in my experience of using OpenIV to make an .oiv file that eliminates this issue altogether, though this is a non-issue
for people who are yet to modify their gun sounds though.

- Follow steps 3) to 8) if "RESIDENT.RPF & WEAPONS_PLAYER.RPF" are already in your "mods" folder.

- Gun sounds were ripped directly from a clean owned steam copy of Grand Theft Auto IV: The Complete Edition, & modified by me (fiswet) using Audacity
to match the sample rate of all other vanilla gun sounds to ensure there is little to no audio discrepancy(s) while playing.

- this mod was made by fiswet on 5mods. (28/05/25)
