[Half-Life Alyx] Ambient Overhaul

Description
Garry's Mod Ambient Overhaul.

This addon will replace most, not all but most, sounds from a combination of several things. This includes HLA, Black Mesa, and EAR.

Credit to RizGBlue for providing the HLA sounds, you can find a link to the original sounds here;

Credit to Kel for providing various other sounds, such as the UI sounds, footsteps and the Black Mesa sounds, link here;

I used the legacy version of Kel's addon because I found these sounds to much more pleasant.
I found the combination of these addons to be perfect for creating a sound replacement, as sometimes the HLA sounds don't really fit in one place but a Black Mesa sound can. I've tried to remove or keep loud jarring sounds out of the list, so everything feels like it has a place. This is tailored to my likings but I can change things if people really want me to.
This addon replaces the following sounds;

-Alarms
-Atmosphere
-Creatures
-Energy
-Explosions (Not grenades or RPG explosions, just ambient explosions)
-Fire
-Gas
-Sounds from levels including; Canals, Citadel, Coast, Lab, Prison, and Streetwar
-Machines
-Materials such as metal stress, falling rocks, wood creaks, squeaky floors
-Water (Such as waves, dripping water, water splashes, etc.)
-Wind
-Buttons (Most of these sounds are from HLA)
-Doors
-Ammo pickup and Medkits
-Player (Footsteps, burning, drowning, falling)
-Some UI sounds.

This addon replaces a total of 732 sounds.

This addon does not replace any weapon or npc sounds.

As always if you want something changed or fix, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

From what I can tell, this mod only works in the 64 branch, any way to fix this?

there is something so calming about the music with the steady tapping of the boots

if anyone is having problem with ear rape like sounds, whether it be screeching, loud, static, etc. Type snd_restart into the console, this will restart the sound system, and should fix any sound related problems.

footsteps sound like firecrackers
