I have lost all NPC dialogue and Shout sounds with the newes

Post » Wed May 30, 2012 8:38 am

Hello all, I just updated to the most recent patch and as a result I have no NPC dialogue. The NPC stares at me with a blank expression, the subtitles flash past on the bottom so fast I can't read it and then the "conversation" ends with the NPC having said nothing.

I also have no Fus Ro Dah sound playing when I use Unrelenting Force. The shout itself works, I just don't hear anything when it is used.

Apparently I am not the only one experiencing this issue (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2557968). I am using a Lenovo Y570 laptop that has not had any problems running Skyrim in the past. I have deactivated all mods and verified the game cache to no avail. I realize there isn't much the community can do if sounds are broken due to the newest patch, but I wanted to call attention to this and see if anyone has any ideas.

Thanks very much :smile:

the latest patch has more to do with mod, have you tried disabled all mods?

You might try deleting the exe files in your skyrim folder and re-verifiing the game.
Apparently they sometimes don't update correctly.
