Shortly before I uploaded this mod (after a bunch of development, redevelopment testing, etc). I found that there is a "Wilhelm Scream" mod out there by Matziq. You can imagine me crying the Wilhelm Scream at that point. That mod seems to simply replace the common "ta-da" sound which happens at character death (or maybe it's just for crit hits?) as well as a number of other common events seems like. This mod here is specific to humanoid death (that is, the combat dialog death category) and just adds the scream to the list of things that may be uttered at one's death. This does not change any existing sounds or any other things.
Version: 1.5
Installation:
----------------------------------------
Activate via Nexus Mod Manager. It can be added manually by extracting files into the Skyrim's Data folder then activating the data/plugin file (esp file). But it's recommended to use the Nexus Mod Manager as it is the supported way and is an easier install.
Un-installation:
----------------------------------------
Deactivate via Nexus Mod Manager. If installed from a manual installation, just deactivate the data file and optionally remove the files added files by the manual installation.
Known Issues:
----------------------------------------
None known.
Updates:
----------------------------------------
1.0 - Initial Release
1.5 - Refactored to allow explicit setting of percent chance of the scream. Added global settings to tweak the chances for both
NPC's and creatures.
Permission Notes:
----------------------------------------
This mod is in the public domain. The audio comes from audio that is already in the public domain.
