AOS was built to make modifications to existing vanilla sounds, but cannot take account for all types of sounds added by other mods.
It is important to note that these problems are not the 'fault' of either PerMa or AOS. The changes AOS makes to the magic effects / spells only work if everything is changed as intended by AOS, but with PerMa's versions of spells, the changes made by AOS are only partially made, which will lead to sounds not working as expected. The problems with the looping sounds come out of PerMa's magic effects (spells, scrolls, and enchantments) referring to vanilla sounds that AOS has changed.
Apologies for posting this here and also the main PerMa comments thread, but it seemed appropriate in order to get the news out on this:įor anyone using PerMa and Audio Overhaul for Skyrim (AOS), I'm afraid I have some bad news.Ī number of PerMa + AOS users have reported 'stuck' looping magic sounds, and after some investigation into the reasons why, I discovered that this is because PerMa uses its own versions of some 'vanilla' magic effects (spells, scrolls, and enchantments), but the sounds they are set up to use are for the most part the same as the original vanilla sounds, and being copies - are untouched by AOS.
