So I followed the install videos for TTW but I cant update to 3.2.1 I get a error saying the Sound.bsa can not be found but I can see that its there in my data folder in FNV I dont know why im getting this error I have a fresh install for fo3 and FNV that are both up to date and the game runs okay but I am missing audio for things like weapons and weapon animations I dont have any mods installed and I am using NMM.
Hopefully you guys are able to help

If you chose not to re-encode the audio, then the patches may not work, I don't think we ever tested that.

The installer does this if you don't use the batch file to disable it.

Same issue here... no sound.bsa when trying to update. (off topic) TTW will not work launching from FNV.exe but will from MO2, adding this in as I've followed all steps correctly and updating is the only thing I haven't done so figured it might be related.

Its like your antivirus or windows defender has removed the libraries we use to re-encode the audio. Or something along those lines, generally it should fail without completing. If there is no bsa created, likely an issue with not running the installer as admin.
