This is brilliant, it is glorious. Have you considered using "It's ****E being Scottish!" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1tJJO_pVvQ)?

The sounds work both in multiplayer and custom battles, and will not be interpreted as cheats nor cause performance issues or crashes. There would not be much point to the mod if that were not the case. Hope you enjoy the sounds.

Do it. Is that plume remover for the Garde zu Fuss?

It affects all regiments with large plumes, both cavalry and infantry, Garde zu Fuss is one of them.

Nice to see a norwegian speaking regiment. Its a shame there are no ski regiment skins for NW yet, it strikes me as the most memorable image of norwegian soldiers in the napoleonic wars.


Lykke til.

I have done all the things you said and tested the sound files but still no luck 
No need to apologise

That is strange, do you still get the old sounds unchanged in-game, or do the sounds malfunction in-game? When you listen to the musket sounds in the \mountblade warband\Modules\Napoleonic Wars\Sounds folder, do you hear new sounds? Or are they the old sounds? Sadly, I cant do much to help, but if you do hear the new sounds in you sound folder, you know that you have successfully replaced the old ones, and if that is the case I do not know why they do not work in-game.

I have a quick question, will the reenactor's sounds give me a more in-depth feel? Or the Fire and Smoke?

It is difficult to explain the difference between them in writing, they both change the same amount of sounds, the difference between them is in the musket and rifle sounds. I would suggest trying them both, and judging for yourself what pack you prefer.
I personally tend to change between them too keep the game fresh.

I've tried like 5 times

Hello Moogle, I am sorry to have taken so long to respond. Could you sum up what you did to the files when installing them?

What you need to do is:

1. Open the zip file containing the sounds.
2. Extract the "Sounds" folder.
3. Place all the sound files found within the "Sounds" folder in \mountblade warband\Modules\Napoleonic Wars\Sounds
4. You will be asked if you wish to replace the existing files, answer yes.

When you have completed these steps, try listening to one of the new files (for example "musket_shot01.wav"). If the file is working properly, and it is a new sound, the mod should then also be working in-game.

Thank you for trying the mod.

I wish I could, I've got nothing.



It never ceases to amaze me, just how extraordinarily obnoxious one small group of self-indulgent, self-righteous manchildren can be.

Lolz i think i heard these sounds from ntw general andys sound pack but good to know theres one for warband! im loving it only thing needed

You are correct in your observation, those musket sounds are indeed from general andy's sound pack. Although mixed to work better in napoleonic wars.
In fact most of the sounds from both the sound packs are compiled from sound mods for empire and napoleon total war.

Btw, when will you be putting the greatcoat skins for the french line up for download?

ThaNightmare48 said:

btw, are these sounds also working if i just drag-n-drop them into the WFAS-Folder? Or do i need the other mod for it? (The normal gunsounds suck flying pigs(srly.. it doesn't sound like guns))

You will have to use Solecist's sound pack for that, link is in the OP. And I agree, the default musket sounds in WFAS are atrocious,
Solecist's sound pack improved the atmosphere of the battles significantly, made the game far more enjoyable.

Comrade Menelaos, could you update the list with links to the newest versions of the fire and smoke pack, and the reenactor's pack? They have both been significantly improved.
Including a link to the thread as well would be useful, since it contains install instructions and a short overview.

I have tried 2 both are titled ui gadgets

Did you put the "ui_gadgets.dds" file in "mountblade warband\Modules\Napoleonic Wars\Textures" or "mountblade warband\Textures"?
The "ui_gadgets.dds" file needs to be placed in the warband texture folder (mountblade warband\Textures), not the napoleonic wars texture folder.

It should look like this in-game.

After having observed the sounds in-game more I have made further adjustments: Mixed explosions to be louder,
rearranged the musket sounds to make flintlock pistols sound less loud than the musket sounds,
changed rifle sound to have less echo, in order to compensate for the one file limit, and resulting lack of variation (eliminates repeating layers of echo).
Added a cannon impact and wooden rubble sound, that I mistakenly thought I had added before.

Download links have been updated accordingly.

Nice mod, using it, mostly like the re-enactor sound pack. Thank you for the mod!

I appreciate the feedback comrade, good to hear the the reenactor sounds are satisfactory.

I am somewhat disappointed that, as far as I know, there has not yet been released greatcoat variants of the various units, other than one for the old guard grenadiers. I confess to having a fetish for greatcoats, and expect that there will eventually come a few decent greatcoat skin variants for many units. Especially since greatcoats are so frequently depicted in illustrations of the french invasion of russia. Hopefully someone will make shako cover skins as well, for france and prussia.

A few images for inspiration:

OP updated, both the fire and smoke pack and the the reenactor's musket sounds have received further mixing, as well as additional sounds. Both packs now contain new rocket sounds, artillery sounds and explosion sounds. I am happy with the improvements made, I have not had too much time to test them however.

OP updated yet again, this time with an entirely new set of sounds. These sounds are far rawer, recorded outdoors. I will probably mix the echo on them further in the future. Curious as to what people think of them.

I-I'll be in my bunk.

OP updated with download link to the new version of the mod. The new version includes new artillery and explosion sounds, altering all artillery related sounds except the sound of the rocket travelling.
