VIGILANT Voiced – English Addon
The mod before you is an English voice acting addon for Vigilant, brought to you by 23 incredibly talented voice actors and the author of the latest English translation.
VIGILANT. An amazing quest mod made by Vicn, requiring the player to join the Vigilants of Stendarr and help them keep Skyrim safe from the influence of malevolent forces … and then a certain Daedric Prince takes a very personal interest in the newest member of the Vigilants.
Up until some time ago, you could play this mod only partially translated into English. But you waited and eventually, an English translation was complete. Something was still missing, though.
All the characters were silent.
But now … we have a solution for you. The mod before you is an English voice acting addon for Vigilant, brought to you by 23 incredibly talented voice actors and the author of the latest English translation. Every single character you will meet during your journey as a Vigilant of Stendarr is now voiced and waiting to talk to you.
We hope you will enjoy this addon.
NOTE: With recent updates to VIGILANT (1.6.0+), this addon no longer covers every character in the mod. They will be voiced at a later date, after Vicn finalizes his work. Thank you for understanding.
A warning for those who absolutely MUST do whatever the NPC tells you to do and then complain on reddit:
IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST PLAYTHROUGH OF THE MOD, DO NOT LISTEN TO ORLANDO. DO NOT DO WHAT HE WANTS AT ANY POINT. IGNORE HIM. DON’T EVEN TALK TO TO HIM IF YOU KNOW YOU HAVE NO SELF-CONTROL AND ABSOLUTELY MUST DO WHATEVER AN NPC TELLS YOU TO DO. YOU’LL REGRET IT.
See below or the sticky on why.
Our addon is now available for the Special Edition of Skyrim as well!

19TH MAY 2017! Thank you, everyone!
Q: Is this a full mod?
A: No. This is just sound files and a translated .esp and patch file. You still need the original Vigilant mod for all the meshes, textures, etc.
Q: Do I need a separate translation file for this?
A: No. The latest English .esp file is included. You only need the original Vigilant mod and its requirements.
Q: I don’t like some of the voices.
A: No one says you have to. And that’s not a question. In any case, if you really hate the voiced version so much, there is a text only English translation available in the Optional Files section.
Q: I did what Orlando told me and now I’m stuck in some wasteland. What’s going on? How do I get back to Skyrim?
A: *sigh* By reloading to a previous save, BEFORE you did what he told you to do. And then you ignore him. And maybe read VIGILANT’s description page.
To make this very clear: doing what Orlando tells you to will SKIP the entire story and land you right in the finale.
IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST PLAYTHROUGH OF THE MOD, IGNORE ORLANDO. I REPEAT, IGNORE HIM. DO NOT DO WHAT HE WANTS YOU TO DO AT ANY POINT.
Q: I’m desperately stuck in-game and really need some help.
A: There is now a very basic guide in .txt format available in the Optional Files section as well. It’s not a full guide, but it will have to suffice until I finish the comprehensive version.
What you absolutely need, no exceptions whatsoever:
latest version of Skyrim + Dawnguard and Dragonborn DLCs (or Legendary Edition)
latest version of VIGILANT (1.7.3)
How to install:
make sure you meet all the requirements
download VIGILANT Voiced – English Addon
install with your mod manager of choice or manually unzip the files to your Skyrim Data folder
let it overwrite existing Vigilant.esm (you need to do this, otherwise you won’t get the translated text and you’ll end up with the dreaded rectangles everywhere)
activate the mod and sort your load order with LOOT or manually if you know what you’re doing (Vigilant Voiced.esp needs to come after Vigilant.esm, obviously)
play
