📋 About This Mod
Makes a metric poop ton of changes to Sound Descriptors for footsteps, which are rarely touched by mods. Also edits the ghost abilities to include the muffle effect.
RIP my wrists.
This mod was made to compliment Ghosts float DAR animations by samuelga24
This mod is incompatible with Quiet Muffle Footsteps For Player as it essentially makes the same changes. If you only want muffle to effect the player, than I would recommend using this mod instead.
Expands the Muffled spell/enchantment in Skyrim so that moving while active or wearing enchanted items silences footsteps for the player and NPCs, including ghosts. A niche immersion mod with 367 endorsements and high downloads, last updated in 2022.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid endorsement-to-download ratio (367 endorsements, 359k downloads) shows real community interest.
- Tackles a specific immersion gap—footstep noise—that vanilla leaves unaddressed.
- Simple concept that fits seamlessly into stealth-focused playthroughs.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2022—may have compatibility issues with the latest Skyrim patches or mods.
- Niche effect: only matters if you actually use Muffled spells/enchantments regularly.
For stealth players who want to eliminate footstep noise completely, especially when sneaking with Muffled active. Also for immersion enthusiasts who notice ghost footsteps breaking the atmosphere. Skip if you rarely use Muffled or prefer gameplay over audio tweaks.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no extra steps needed.
- Make sure to load this mod after any mods that alter the Muffled effect or stealth mechanics to avoid conflicts.
- Test with a ghost encounter early to confirm the effect works as intended.
