​Voice Packs
Coming Soon!
Reduced volume menu items. The lightsaber defaults to loud volume and the power on sound can be too loud for many environments. On our personal sabers we edited a couple of the sound files so that they were much quieter, even when the saber was at max volume. You can download these and overwrite your files with them to achieve the same thing.
