I keep losing my characters audio when using the Staff of embers. I have Epic Loot mod and I think it makes the staff make too many sounds and then the game just stops playing my character's sounds after using it a lot at one time. Do you know enough about the way the game uses sound to offer any advice? I'm trying your mod now and I'll report back if it fixes anything.
Edit - This wasn't a fix for my issue. Cool mod though, thank you.
Aside from the scene's music, there seems to be two types of sound effects, those that play once and those that loop continuously. I don't use Epic Loot. Is the staff modified with magic properties by EL? I'm not an expert on the audio subsystem, but from what I recall, your sound hardware as a maximum number of "voices". There's also some ability within the Unity platform to set this within the hardware limit. It could be you're exceeding that limit (speculation). Having it 'hang' however, might be an indication that something has 'grabbed' those voices, and is continuously using them without 'releasing' them (broad speculation). If this only happens when using the staff, and only if you're using one modified by EL, then I'd suggest you post a bug report where the community can respond on Discord. I'm not sure if Randy Knapp has any dedicated site.
