choco285 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) Greatings everyone, I decided to re install Skyrim in a new computer, now, I made clean instalation without mods and slowly started adding some of the ones I had. This is my second time moding skyrim SE, I used to use NMM but moved to MO 2 this time around, all my mods seems to run just fine but the only problem is that the npcs don't have speak at all, I need to mention English is not my first language so my game came in spanish originally, so i decided to change the language of my game and here where things get funny.The Vanilla game is in English, voices, menu and all, but, when I run with SKSE through MO2 the npcs lose their voice and the game menues partially turn back into Spanish, and I say partially because stuff like objectives is in English but the settings menu is in Spanish for example.What i tried so far: 1.-restoring the .ini files by deleting them and launching the vanilla game. 2.-Looking inside the Skyrim.ini to see if anything was missing in the archive section and this is what i got, I don't know much about ini modification but I just know i need the Voices.bsa line, heres what i got in the Skyrim.ini. [Archive]sResourceArchiveList=Skyrim - Misc.bsa, Skyrim - Shaders.bsa, Skyrim - Interface.bsa, Skyrim - Animations.bsa, Skyrim - Meshes0.bsa, Skyrim - Meshes1.bsa, Skyrim - Sounds.bsasResourceArchiveList2=Skyrim - Voices.bsa, Skyrim - Textures0.bsa, Skyrim - Textures1.bsa, Skyrim - Textures2.bsa, Skyrim - Textures3.bsa, Skyrim - Textures4.bsa, Skyrim - Textures5.bsa, Skyrim - Textures6.bsa, Skyrim - Textures7.bsa, Skyrim - Textures8.bsa, Skyrim - Patch.bsabLoadArchiveInMemory=1sArchiveToLoadInMemoryList=Skyrim - Animations.bsa 3.-I made steam check the integrity of the files and it found 1 problem but this did not fixed it. I'm at a lose right now guy, I have no idea what might be wrong, hope any of you can help, thanks in advance, if theres any change i'll update this post. ps: sorry for any bad english Edited January 19, 2020 by choco285 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anjenthedog Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I doubt I can be of much help but wanted to ask. Do we purchase a language-specific game, ie, I purchased "Skyrim Special Edition English", you purchased "Skyrim Special Edition Spanish", someone else purchased the Greek version, another the German version, and so forth? ({Personally I don't remember) If not, why not just reinstall the game from scratch (literally) and select the language you want during installation, then install your **mods after? **Presumably, some of your mods are in Spanish, since you originally installed for native Spanish use, right? So all those Spanish language variant mods will need to be swapped out for their English version, but other than that I'd think it's just elbow grease. No? Anyway, I hope you're able to shake things out easily. I've heard you can clean up Skyrim base files using a steam tool of some sort, although I've never used it so don't know the details. But I figured it might be worth mentioning. There's probably info at Steam. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, thanks for the answer and sorry for taking so long myself, and indeed my game comes in spanish by defail, I kind of fixed the problem, what I did was that I changed the language back to spanish and the game worked, buuuut, for some reason the game has some menus and subtitles in english and some in spanish, the voices are back but sometimes characters say some things in spanish and a very few in english. It's not the best fix but it's better than what I had XD I personally don't mind but I feel like a clean re instalation could work better but I'm ok as the game is for now XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grospolina Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Since you're using Mod Organizer 2, remember that you have a separate copy of your INI files for each profile. Even if you change the INI files in My Games\Skyrim Special Edition, they'll simply be ignored. Compare them to the INI files in your profile folder. You can also use the built-in INI Editor (found under the jigsaw icon in the toolbar), which will pull up the correct INI files for your current profile. I think you have to make sure that sLanguage in Skyrim.ini is correctly set to ENGLISH or SPANISH. anjenthedog, to answer your question, you don't purchase different language versions of Skyrim separately. You can just go into Steam and change the language under the game properties. It will delete your current sound files and download the new ones. This also requires changes to your Skyrim.ini file (as mentioned above). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured as much (edit: conceptually anyway), but I didn't want to directly say it for fear that I might mislead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
