Quietus - Confringo and Swift Volume Fix

This mod remixes the sound effects for the spell Confringo and the ability Swift (the quick-dodge perk), mainly by lowering their volume.

Besides lowering the volume, Confringo is now a little less boomy, and Swift is a little less sharp and punchy.

The difference is small, but it makes it so that I can play with the Sound Effects volume set to 90, instead of something much lower.

See the video for comparison with original.

Installation

Mod manager

Installation of this mod with Vortex or any other mod manager is untested, but probably works. Do report back if you try it.

Manual installation

Extract the the contents of the ~mods folder to your own ~mods folder, most commonly located at

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hogwarts Legacy\Phoenix\Content\Paks

If you do not have a ~mods folder yet, create it.

If you only want the Confringo fix, delete QuietusSwift.pak (inside the Quietus folder). If you only want the Swift fix, delete QuietusConfringo.pak.

The final structure should be something like this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hogwarts Legacy\Phoenix\Content\Paks\~mods\Quietus\QuietusXXX.pak

Don't forget to endorse, once you've tried it, if you liked it.

Compatibility

This mod might conflict with other sound effect mods, even if they do not change the exact same thing.

Roadmap

Let me know if there are any other sounds that you think needs adjustment.

I'm might adjust Diffindo next.

Tell me if you think the sounds in this mod are too quiet or still too loud.
