                         The Elder Scrolls III
                              Morrowind:
                                                    
                            Better Sounds 
                             

**********************************************************************************************************************
                          1. INSTALLATION
*************************************************************************************************************
1) Extract the archive into ...\Morrowind\Data Files;
2) Start Morrowind Launcher, choose «Files»;
3) Find and double-click Better_Sounds.esp;
4) If in the process of game loading you get the message that the save file has a different plugin list – click "Yes".
5) Then you'll get the following message: 
"Local count for script "Outside Banner" differs from local count for saved reference data. Continue running executable?"
click "Yes" - NOTE! This message will appear about 70-80 times (for some of the standart scripts were changed);
6) NOTE! To make BetterSounds work properly: load game, save, and then load this savegame again;
7) (For advanced users!) to make the wind blow lightly when overcast do the following: 
- open Morrowind.ini;
- In [Weather] find [Weather Overcast];
- find Ambient Loop Sound ID=None;
- change "None" to "windL" so that the result will be: Ambient Loop Sound ID=windL
- save Morrowind.ini
8) That's it! =)
 
All sounds have unique names and will NOT delete the original game sounds!

                 2. WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?
*************************************************************************************************************
This plugin changes the sounds of Elder Scrolls III. All changes are divided into several groups - environment, items, doors, creatures, magic. Listen to them yourself! =)
This plugins includes the official «Bitter Coast Sounds Plugin», which was significantly improved. :)

P.S. 
This is not a simple "sound replacer". While working on "Better Sounds", 
we wanted to bring new life into TES III, to make it more atmospheric.

                         4. KNOWN ISSUES.
*************************************************************************************************************
1. If you have "Bitter Coast Sounds Plugin" (bcsounds.esp), don't use it;
2. It is not recommended to use "BetterSounds" together with Duncun's "Atmospheric Sound Effects"
3. Some sounds are attached to plants via scripts (corcbulb, some hackle-lo, wickwheat, kreshweed). 
That's why if you use some "herbalism"-type mods, you'll collect the plants the old way. :)
