Nearby battle markers?

[mewmew34]

Assuming it would be possible to do, are there any mods that will indicate where a nearby battle is taking place? I often will hear distant gunfire, and sometimes even see the flash of an explosion, as I'm traveling around the wasteland. However, I often can't manage to find the source of the gunfire and explosions. I'll run around looking but often can't find where the fight is taking place, so I miss out on EXP and loot from killing enemies and helping anybody that might need help. I'm hoping there's a mod, or eventually will be one, where nearby gunfire will trigger some little indicator on the map so you can avoid it or run straight into it as desired. I hate having to run around like a headless chicken trying to find the source of battle sounds.

Rain of brass mod forces shells from fired weapons to stick around a while after fights break out. It is kind of an immersive way to figure out where a nearby battle took place and as long as your looking at the ground in the general area of where you heard the shots you might be able to find them more easily. It would probably be easy to make a mod that highlights dead bodies if you're looking for something less subtle.
