📋 About This Mod

Muted Pain Exclamations for Various Animals
For frosty or dai mod manager. Mutes some of the exclamations of pain for various animals. For now just mabari, hyena, wolves nugs & druffalo, but open to requests of other animals to mute.

For wolves, hyena, and mabari, I muted the death sounds, the pain sounds, and in some instances the howling because some sounded more like howls of pain to me but I left the howl muting as a separate, optional file.

Druffalo option mutes all druffalo sounds but footsteps, not just pain ones. If you still hear any cow-like noises at the hinterlands farm after that, download the muted background mooing too!

For nugs, I have provided 3 options within the downloads, they're all contained in one file so you need to extract it with peazip to separate out the files, and then choose only one of the 3 options for nugs to install.

The options for nugs are as follows:

1. Muted pain, death and attack sounds - the death and attack sounds sound exactly the same so if you don't like the death sounds, then you probably won't like the attack sounds either, so you might want to get this if so.

2. Muted Pain and Death Sounds for Nugs - just mutes the main pain sounds and the death sounds, does not mute the attack sounds, though the attack sounds do sound exactly the same as the deaths sounds in the files. So if you don't like the death sounds then you might not want this particular file, because attack sounds are the same.

3. Muted Pain Sounds Only - just mutes the main pain sounds, does not mute the attack or death sounds.

This has only been briefly tested so if you have issues please tell me.

Padme4000 for help with the method (although I ended up doing it a different way but it was still appreciated)

ladyvoldything for original request to have the mod for wolves, hyenas, and mabaris (P. S I do not formally take requests unless I say so, I just stumble upon other people's requests and take them sometimes if they seem easy enough. on this mod as I said though I am currently taking requests of animals to mute should you want it)

Machiavegli for nug request

MontagueSplatttt for druffalo request.
