Sounds of Skyrim - The Wilds

What does it do?

The Wilds focuses on adding sound effects in Skyrim's wilderness. With the

115 new sound effects, the purpose of The Wilds is to audibly enlarge

Skyrim's fauna with the addition of various animals, birds and insects

that play according to weather, time of day and region. In the forests,

for example, you'll hear the sounds of foxes, deer and ravens. At

night, you'll hear wolves howling from far away or common loons calling

others. In The Reach, you might hear the occasional mountain goat or

In addition to animals, The Wilds also adds rain-impact sounds on tents and wooden structures, sounds of rustling bushes to

simulate the movements of small mammals that scatter away as you

approach and sounds of calm water waves hitting wood on tree logs or

structures that are partially submerged in water.

What is Sounds of Skyrim?

Sounds of Skyrim is an audio project split in three parts that, in the end,

adds around 460+ sound effects to the game world. It affects almost

every cell and region in the game. My main goal is to not have one

environment that is soundless to enhance immersion. The sounds are

affected by the time of day, weather and location. So when walking in

the city streets during the day, you'll hear the echo of doors opening

and closing, children playing and workers sawing things. While at night,

cats fight for territory and dogs bark.

All three modules have been released and can be obtained on the website from where you downloaded this module.

raging outside, you’ll hear the thunder rumbling in the fort or cave

There's a standard sound set for each type of dungeon: Cave, Dwemer Ruins,

Forts and Sewers. These sounds play in these dungeons regardless of who

or what lives in it. To spice it up, dungeons inhabited by Falmer or the

Undead have their own sound sets in addition to the standard ones.

Undead dungeons have zombies and wraiths screaming or moaning. In Falmer

dungeons, you'll hear their occasional screams; a way of communicating

with each other since they are nearly blind.

Civilization

Civilization focuses on adding 223 new sound effects to cities, villages, farms and

remote locations where civilization is present. In cities, you can hear

the sound of a hammer being used by a villager repairing something,

children playing, dogs barking or cats fighting. As you get
