📋 About This Mod

Just makes the chapel bells in towns sound much louder. It has no scripts, so it's both lightweight and fully compatible with the Unofficial Oblivion Patch.

This mod only modifies one record: AMBBellTower . You can deactivate it and import it into your bashed patch in Wrye Bash, to save an ESP slot in your load order.

Please also use the Unofficial Oblivion Patch, which contains the following fix for town chapel bells:

Corrected oversight of town chapel bell sounds not being audible at all in the chapels' interiors, and also greatly optimized the scripting for the bells

This mod is intended to be a replacement for the Better Bell Sounds mod that is compatible with the Unofficial Oblivion Patch, while having all of the same functionality as that mod. See this spoiler for more information:

My mod has the exact same sound values as the Better Bell Sounds mod (basically just maximised all values):

Better Bell Sounds overwrites the BellTowerScript that UOP optimises:

; Rewritten by the UOP to be more efficient (got rid of 24 elseifs in a row for each hour)

And so Better Bell Sounds reintroduces the 24 elseifs from the vanilla script, not using UOP's optimised script:

Basically, if you use my mod Louder Chapel Bells alongside UOP, then you will have all of the same functionality as the Better Bell Sounds mod, but with UOP's optimised bell script instead of the outdated script from Better Bell Sounds. And, you will even save an ESP slot, as my mod can be deactivated and imported into the bashed patch. UOP does let you hear chapel bell sounds while inside of the chapel interiors, rendering the script fixes in the Better Bell Sounds mod to be unessesary, if not even burdensome.

If you use the Immersive Interiors series of mods, you can also hear the chapel bells while inside of some town interiors, whenever the chapel can be seen outside of the windows.
