Hmmm.... Thanks to your encouragement Dezzi, I had a little play in the editor. I changed the Minimum Attenuation Distance from 50 to 45 I changed the Maximum Attenuation Distance from 2100 to 2700 I changed the Static Attenuation from -15.2db(FS) to 0db(FS) Of course, this was after a lot of 'suck it and see'. I can now almost imperceptibly hear a Nirnroot at ten game paces away. Not wanting to gain an unfair advantage, nor disadvantage myself, I'd very much appreciate it if some kind soul would let me know from how far away they percieive the awful din these plants make.
