'''ID:''' The name of the sound. Sounds can be directly associated with some object types, such as containers, doors, creatures, and [[Magic Effects]], using TESCS. They can also be indirectly associated with some objects via the mesh file (some meshes have a sound associated with a certain material name or animation state). The Sound ID is also used when compiling scripts that play a sound (i.e., using [[PlaySound]]). | '''ID:''' The name of the sound.

Open the animation .kf file (e.g., idle.kf) or in some cases the mesh itself (if the animation is embedded in the .nif) and look for a NiTextKeyExtraData node. In it you'll find a list of strings associated with time values. Look for entries containing 'Sound: SoundID' (e.g., Sound: ENDDragonWingFlap01). These entries make the game play that Sound ID at the specified time in the animation cycle. | ||
