I just commented on @'s pack before I found Otopack. I think it might be one of the ‘hit_flesh’ ogg files.
I did a few test myself but I’m no expert.
I disabled some files by simply renaming them and reloading the same point in the game over and over. I found that some of the ‘hit_flesh’ files in ‘small cut’ seemed to cause the issue when the player attacks.
then I noticed it happens when the monsters attack too. They use ‘hit1.ogg’ - ‘hit6.ogg’ for generic strikes.
Since the files look fine in audacity and VLC, its really hard to pin down whats causing the problem. Especially since some of the sounds seem to be repeated in different folders.
