About this mod
Replaces almost all vanilla lightsaber sounds with sounds from the movies.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
This mod improves almost all lightsaber sounds by replacing them with ones from the movies. This mod is MP safe, but as with any mods, you do take the (very small) chance of being banned.
The new v2 update has most of the same features as the original version, but I split all of the edits into multiple files so that users have more control over what sounds are changed and how, with the option to keep cosmetic compatibility if desired. You can now freely choose what mods to use and what replacements are made; none of the mods are required for the others to work correctly. This also makes the mod easier to override if you want to. In addition, I did update the Sith activation sounds, some swing sounds, and added a couple other miscellaneous edits. There are a lot of files included with the zip file; they are all explained here.
Update 2.1 modifies the prequel activations (see new video) and adds a new idle intense sound for all lightsaber heroes. Also, I redid the swings for the third time; currently they are very reminiscent of the ones heard in the prequels and the Force Unleashed (see new video for examples).
NOTE: Anakin's lightsaber has the same sounds as Luke's blue lightsaber. Also, Rey, Obi-Wan, and Yoda share most lightsaber sounds, and Count Dooku has the same lightsaber sounds as Darth Vader.
NOTE 2: General Grievous's saber sounds are unique. For some reason, they are very quiet and the pitch is lowered, there is currently no known fix for this.
