📋 About This Mod
Increases the low health threshold and/or increases the volume of the heartbeat sound.
Increases the low health threshold and/or volume for the heartbeat sound. This is particularly useful for Skyrim VR, where the health bar isn't always visible and there is no blood splatter or other UI indication of waning health.
Low Health Threshold Options: 20% (Skyrim default), 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 80%
(very low health is half of the selected low health threshold)
Volume Options: Normal (Skyrim default volume), Loud, Louder, Much Louder, Extreme
(when using the non-default volumes, the volume is boosted further for very low health).
Installation:
Installing via a Mod Manager is recommended, and will show a UI to select the desired volume and/or low-health thresholds. If installing manually, copy the ESP file named "BetterHeartbeats-<volume>-<slow>-<fast>.esp" to the Skyrim Data folder.
