F0EH4MMER Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Hi all, I've looked all over for something like this and haven't had any luck, so here goes. First, I'll give you a scenario which happens more often than I'd like. (I'm a bad shot sometimes... :sweat: ) The night is calm, and my prey hasn't noticed me yet. My perch on a large boulder gives me a perfect view between several trees. I nock an arrow, silently raising it's deadly point in line with the back of my target's head. My breath is held, and I release with a loud "TWANG!". My arrow goes high above my target. He stands, draws his blade, and charges in my direction, intently searching for the wannabe archer with the loud bow. That being said, I request a mod which adds either a perk under marksman (Or sneak?) which muffles the "Twang" from the bowstring to other actors. If that isn't doable, then even a game tweak would make me happy. Thank you all for hearing me out! I hope to receive some help soon, have a great day! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarabMonkey Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I could make silent arrows ... not quite the same thing - but the code for sound is on the arrow (possibly on the bow also, will take a look) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScarabMonkey Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) Ok then ... Bows are already all set to silent but the arrow projectiles were all normal... I'll release a mod with these all set to silent. I think I may make a version which allows you to 'upgrade' arrows to silent versions rather than just making all arrows silent ... what do you think? http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=12528 Edited March 9, 2012 by ScarabMonkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F0EH4MMER Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) A quick update. I'm not sure if this is it or not, but I wasn't just sitting on my hands waiting for you :tongue: I was just scanning through the creation kit and found this in the properties for PROJECTILES. I double checked on the CK website and this is what it says.Supersonic: - If checked, the sound emanates from the point of the projectile's path closest to the listener (Think bullets whizzing by your head). If unchecked, the sound emmiter follows the projectile around until it is destroyed (Think rockets flying through the air). All arrows have that unchecked, and from what I'm understanding, this means that they will hear the sound as soon as the arrow is loosed, whereas if it WAS checked, then they would only hear it when it got close to them? Any thoughts? :confused:CORRECTION - It seems ONLY iron arrows have supersonic checked, so I'll do a little research and see if they behave differently than the others.

Hey, good job! That sounds great, how do you want to do this? You upload and I download it? Email? LOL This is the first time I've done this :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
