EDIT: nevermind, found a fix. Can delete sorry.

I noticed that I seem to be missing the sound of my own footsteps when running and walking (not when sprinting). Any easy fix for this? Everything else seems to be fine as far as I can tell.
Makes running/walking kind of odd since the character already kind of slides/hovers around the ground in first person and now without any sound it feels really weird.

Out of curiosity, what was your fix?

I had, without much knowing, installed a mod that changed animation behaviors that included the walking and running behaviors. I fixed it by deleting two files in data/meshes/actors/characters/_1stperson/animations/ folder and then deleted the two files that were there so that the game reverts back to the original ones.
