SCBA Breathing Framework

Hey everyone!

This is something I have been wanting to do for quite a while. This acts as a framework for adding realistic SCBA oxygen intake noises to Biohazard-Suits, Scuba Gear etc etc.

Fallout 2287 was a big inspiration for this, but I was especially missing sounds for a true breathing apparatus. You know, Immersion type shi.

This mod should be compatible with both 1. 0. 163 and NG, as it does not use F4SE.

So far, I have patched the outfit this was originally meant for, dl in the misc section. Original ooutfit ofc required...

ESL flagged ESP

Updates

V1. 1 Fixed a SoundOutput issue that made the game CTD when entering Power Armor

Requirements:

This mod is loose files ONLY! As it broke my soundfiles in a packed version, so make sure to either have bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 and sResourceDataDirsFinal= on in your custom.ini.

Otherwise, everything is included within the file.

Features:

-Breathing Sounds adjusted for female and male gender, I have included a gender split so that female breathing sounds different from male breathing

-Various sounds for idle, walking and sprinting that shift effortlessly and almost unnoticeably between the different states

-Dialog Muffle feature, so that intake sound doesn't outmatch the player talking

-This is Player Only! It does not work for NPC's, and I am not planning on adding it ( on purpose) to NPC's as five different SCBA breathing sounds at once might be... a bit much

Planned for future Versions:

• []Adding a sprint/exhaust feature to make the player sound exhausted in the mask

  []Underwater sounds to deepen immersion

  []Unequip and Equip Sounds

  Known Issues:

  • []When loading a save where you wore a patched outfit, the breathing sounds do not play automatically. Easily fixed by an unequip and re-equip

  • When an NPC is given a patched outfit, the NPC might also start start to emmit the breathing sounds. Easily fixed by talking to the NPC, I have specifically flagged the sounds to only be attached to the player
