📋 About This Mod
An update/add-on for Audia Arcanum 2. 0. The current version 2. 0 replaces all cast and hit sounds for magic, adds some more high-quality ambient noises, and drastically improves most of the \'arcane\' varieties of enemy, such as wraiths, ghosts and liches. This 2. 1 updates muddles with some of the cast sounds I didn\'t much care for and revamps about half of the UI sounds as well, as I believe that the originals are rather bland. Thanks go out to PirateLordX for his permission to use Atmospheric Oblivion in version 2. 0 of this mod! It is also highly recommended that this pack is used in conjunction with the original AA2. 0, but this is not strictly necessary. The author also recommends the \"Firey Oblivion Map Loop\" title background for the alternate menu theme, as it fits the intended \'mood\' better. You will need WinRAR or another archiving utility capable of opening RAR files, such as 7-zip.
