🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since this mod is from 2008, check if it's compatible with your Oblivion version (e.g., Shivering Isles) and use a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash to install and manage load order.
If you use other sound mods, place More Immersive Sound after them in the load order to ensure its sounds take priority.
Test in a few different locations (cities, dungeons, wilderness) to hear the new ambient sounds and adjust if needed.
