Quick question

[irishhombre]

Is there a way to disable the sound effects of building being built? Some of those sounds are quite jarring. Even if it means I have to edit a XML file, I will take any answer. Just for clarity, all I want to disable is the sounds associated with building buildings. For example the sirens that play when building fire fighting buildings. Almost forgot I also wish to disable the we love the leader cheers, those are deafening at higher volume levels.

Just before any one tells me to look in bug options with out clear directions, I did.

Sounds are in need of organization over at Assets\XML\Audio\Audio2DScripts.xml, but at the moment the crowd sheer plus some buildings sounds are controlled by the Interface volume setting, the majority of buildings volume control are in Sound Effects.

Okay, what if I delete construct sound lines from building xml files, will that also do the trick?

Yes, find them in Assets\Sounds.

Okay thank you

These are important suggestions IMO, some sounds are really terrible! I would even like to have a game option to turn off these buildings sounds totally.

I just went through all building XML files and deleted the construct sound line, a bit of a pain but totally worth it. No more jarring sounds from the buildings, now if I could get the cheering to stop.

Sounds like we need a sound modder. I don't think any of the sounds have been changed from the original BtS only reused all over.

@irishhombre you could have saved time and simply deleted the sound files, do that for the crowd cheer.

 

[irishhombre]

I did that, I deleted the mp3 file named crowd cheer and it still kept cheering.

 

[KaTiON_PT]

Go to Assets\XML\Audio\AudioDefines.xml, and delete the two instances of the crowd sheer (lines 4028-4034 and lines 4378-4384).

 

[irishhombre]

Okay. I will do that instead. Thank you
