For anyone like me that finds the sound that plays when you make a hit with a ranged weapon quite annoying or loud? i don't know maybe there is someone out there like me
go to the mount and blade warband folder (not the cRPG module folder) but the main game folder. inside there go into the sounds folder and delete "mp_arrow_hit_target.ogg" or just remove it to a back up folder somewhere and then realize the difference it makes when playing ranged.
I gotta say it's so much more satisfying hearing the actual player get damaged over the loud bass thud you normally hear, makes it more realistic and adds to immersion not knowing if u hit anything. got to rely more on your eyes like irl
