📋 About This Mod
Dragons Shout with Voice from oldrim is a wonderful mod, however, it is dated and does not support DLCs dragon. My update addresses these issues with some additions:
What this mod offers:
- Dragons now have their shout voices when using Fire Breath, Frost Breath and Unrelenting Force by incorporating unused sounds from the game files (Alduin's Meteor Storm shout uses the same voices as Fire Breath does, also, dragons don't have the "Fo..." sound for Frost Breath, so I create custom voice files for them by combining sound files from "Yol..." and "Fus..." voice lines).
- Draugrs' shouts now have mono channel output; this should make these shouts' volume not too shockingly loud (or I am just hallucinating about this when testing and all of this is just a placebo edit).
- The Greybeards and Ulfric Stormcloak now have voice acting when using shouts (the Greybeards have voice acting but they are left unused, for Ulfric Stormcloak I pulled the sound files from Hakon One-Eye's sound folders as Ulric does not have shout voice acting for Unrelenting Force and Disarm; Harkon's voice acting for these 2 shouts are similar to Ulfric's tone in my opinion.
- The sound parameters for shout dialogues are slightly changed so that you could hear the full shout dialogues more easily, moreover, when dragons or draugrs use shouts, the shout volume will depend on the distance between you and them; no longer should you hear the full volume even if your enemies use shouts from afar. On an unrelated notes, I notice Miraak's shouts don't have these parameters, so I add these parameters to them as well.
- Soul Tear actually has dragon voice acting files and they are left unused, so I link them to Durnehviir's scripted raise dead shout during your fight against him in Soul Cairn; I also discover some voice files which sound very similar to voice acting for Draugrs with Fire Breath shout, so I link them to Fire Breath shout entry (vanilla draugrs don't have Fire Breath shout in their spell list, however, some major creature mods add Fire Breath shout to them).
You can check the videos on the POST tab to see this mod in action.
To install my mod, move my mod files to your Skyrim Data folder and activate the ESP file through your Mod Manager or in-game load order menu. Please note that mods that also edit these voice lines to add shouts (like Thunderchild) need a patch.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 368 endorsements and over 6,400 downloads
- Breathes new life into vanilla shouts without adding new assets
- Lightweight audio mod that won't impact performance
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects three NPC types, so impact is limited
- Uses cut content, which may feel inconsistent with the base game's audio style
- Potential conflicts with other audio overhaul mods that modify shout sounds
For Skyrim players who want a subtle but fresh twist on shout audio, especially those who enjoy lore-friendly tweaks. If you're a completionist or audiophile looking for a broader audio overhaul, this might be too narrow. Skip if you prefer vanilla audio or use other shout-modifying mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage this mod easily.
- If you have other audio mods that alter shouts, place this one lower in your load order to ensure its sounds take priority.
- Test in a save where you can encounter dragons or visit High Hrothgar to hear the changes immediately.
