📋 About This Mod
This small addon adds couple of dialogue conditions so that water emerging breath sound no longer plays if under the effect of waterbreathing. Supports all kind of default and custom waterbreathing effects like Argonian ability, waterbreathing potions, waterbreathing enchants or anything else you can imagine, even waterbreathing effects added by other mods. If you are upgrading from previous verison make sure you delete old ESP because this one comes with a new name. Enjoy!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved (3,209 endorsements) — players clearly wanted this.
- Does exactly what it says: no more annoying gasp when you're a fish-person.
- Tiny file size, zero performance impact.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2012 — may not work with current game versions or DLC.
- Only affects the emerge sound; underwater breathing sounds remain unchanged.
- No documentation or compatibility notes provided by the author.
For Skyrim players who love waterbreathing builds (Argonians, enchanted gear) and hate the immersion-breaking gasp when surfacing. Also for modders who want a clean, minimal fix. Skip if you're on a modern version and expect guaranteed compatibility — it's a relic from 2012.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install — it's a simple plugin.
- Check if your game version is pre-Special Edition; this mod is from 2012 and may need manual tweaking for SSE.
- Pair with waterbreathing overhaul mods for a complete underwater experience.
