About this mod

Adds heartbeat and/or breath sound effects when low on health and/or fatigue respectfully.

Permissions and credits
This mod allows me to know what my health and fatigue are without having to look at a bar.

(skip this paragraph if you don't like suggestions)
As an immersive gamer, I like to play Oblivion without any live interface. I use and would recommend Immersive Interface (to turn off all live interface) and Saturation Health indication (to make the screen progressively black-and-white as you loose health).

If you like to know the details, I simply have 4 heartbeat sound files and 3 breathing sound files which activate at certain intervals of health(15%-30%-45%-85%)/fatigue(.075%-45%-75%). Due to the length of the sound files, the breath sounds do overlap a lil, but not noticably enough. As crude as it is, it gets the job done, and it satisfies me.

If you want to edit the volume, simply download a sound edit program(audacity, for example), and edit the files in oblivion\data\sound\fx\HeartbeatBreath (not all files are used, there are a couple extra in case you want to mess with them).

If you want to use my mod to make another mod, go ahead, but be sure to mention the mods in the credits below.

CREDITS:
I used a breath sound file from Abo's Realistic Fatigue (as the breath sound right before you hit 0 fatigue.)
I used a breath sound file from Lork's Sprint Mod (This is a fallout 3 mod)
I used a heartbeat sound file from Duke Patrick's (gotta love the guy) Duke_Patricks_SCA_Combat_MOD_WITH_NO_RECOIL_Silver_Edition-9446. (this mod is no longer hosted here at tesnexus, but it's still googleable.)
These sources did most of the work for this mod, as finding decent sound files was the hardest part, imo.
