First of download and install Link Shell Extension which can be found here *2. (source Crimsonrider )The fix is simple, we're gonna move the sound files to the main drive and create a symbolic link.*1. (source u/afflicto )Basically, go to "Skyrim/Data/Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.ini" and remove the line that says "uMaxSizeForCachedSound=4096" in the section. Thank you to the other people in the posts below. Very helpful if you don't have space in your C: drive but want to fix the sound prob Right click anywhere and choose "Drop As" and then "Symbolic Link" You will see your Sound folder with a shortcut symbol. Right click on it and you should see an option that says "Pink Link Source". Go back to where you copied "Sound" on your C: drive. Delete ''Sound'' Folder from the Data folder Navigate to your Skyrim/Data folder and look for a folder named ''Sound'' Copy this and paste it somewhere on your C: drive.

SO I MOVED THE Sound folder located in Skyrim game/Data do my C: Drive and then made a link extension from there back to my skyrim Data folder. I had tried 2 methods to fixing my missing combat sounds problem and that didnt work 100% for me, also i didnt have space to completely move my game to the c: drive folder. Okay, first time using the discussions page but alas, i am missing about 90% of game noise and music it is a recurring thing and is incredibly infuriating as all combat happens completely silently as well as all music in game being gone, my game is decently modded with 79 mods and i have attempted to fix it with several sound and/or audio overhauls and have tried listening to the game's audio through both my tv's speakers and my headphones (and a non surround sound headphones) and i have no idea what to do as searching for this error just results in dozens of articles about the apparently bad compression, i would love to hear the difference between the old version and the new but alas, no game sounds.Īlso the sound was missing pre modding aswell.Ĭombat Noises (grunts,sword impacts, sheathing/unsheathing weapons, arrow releases (not the impacts(okay maybe half of arrow impacts are audible)))Īny and all cut scene noise (excluding ambient audio and voices)
