Is it possible to replace music?
Your question won't be answered on these forums, Aisynia...

Rule 4: Do not ask how or explain why this works. Questions and information of that nature might be considered "reverse engineering". Better safe than sorry.

Please comply with these rules. Doing so is what will allow this information to remain available in these forums.

By any chance does any happen to know the various electric melee sounds ? I'm thinking the SS melee might be better - hate that electric "sizzle" at the end of the originals.

once they made most of the toggle sounds fade out, did that change the ability to just silence them entirely?

I am trying to turn off the very annoying high pitched squeal that comes with activation of the War Shade shadow cloak. it does fade out, but I switch forms a lot, including in and out of the cloak. so I hear it a lot and it is driving me crazy. must be at just the right pitch.

I tried the location indicated in this thread -- blue_loop.ogg in "enemies" folder but that doesn't work.

any help would be greatly appreciated, my bleeding ears thank you

Don't suppose that anyone have found the name of the file for "Lightning Field", it doesn't fade out, and it's somewhat annoying.

Sweet jebus what do I need to silence to shut up the new demon MM pets at the markets?

Edit: Think I found it. DemonSummoning\DemonLieu_Taunt_01.ogg

That's very nice. Thanks for compiling that list. You just saved me a lot of searching through this thread.

I know I used to have the music that plays on the login screen (both hero and villain) silenced. Somehow it has returned with I17. My first thought was maybe it has just become loud enough to notice since the devs standardized the volume of all the music. I don't think so though, I'm pretty sure I remember going out of my way to silence it.

I didn't see it in the compiled list, so maybe I'm wrong. Either way, if anyone knows which sounds those are, I'd sure like to know. If no one has the answer I'll try to figure it out when I have the time and report back if I have any luck.

For those of you who have used City of Heroes Splasher in order to modify the Pocket D "Canned" music, you may have noticed that the newest issue broke that feature.

I figured out what happened - to make a long story short, the sound OGGs are still exactly the same, but the file structure is now different. Why? Because the Devs (thankfully!) fixed the Pocket D sound setup so that the music volume an actually be controlled by the regular music slider.

In short - until a new version of Splasher comes out, you need to slightly modify your data folder file structure.

Go into your Data file, the file structure should be like this -

Data
Sound
Ogg
Rave

- With the replacement sound files for Pocket D sitting in the "Rave" folder.

Just add a new folder called "Music_Source" (without the quotes) inside of the "Ogg" folder and then dump the folder called "Rave" into it. So that it looks like this -

Data
Sound
Ogg
Music_Source
Rave


Your custom music for Pocket D will now work!

Has anyone found the new car-horn-honking sound? It's rather jarring and annoying.

All the 1s are short beepbeep. All the 2s are longer beeeeeeeep.

The *Dist are quieter 'in the distance' beeps.

In order of loudest to softest: Lux, Sport, Truck, Compact.

I'm thinking of silencing all but the *Dist ones.

I just wanted to say a big "thank you" for this thread. The unbelievably atrocious sound of those demons was actually decreasing my enjoyment of the game. Problem solved.

I'm looking for the demon roar that goes off constantly, and the mystic fortune "glow" tone that goes off every 8 seconds-ish as the card symbols float around my body. And thanks much for the list of car horns.

And ~ZM said "Let there be silence!"


Thanks for compiling this list, ZM. I've been looking for 'Inspiration Collector, Tech' for a while now, and I didn't see it in my search of the thread, or the links that were previously listed.

Now, I still need to find a suitable 'rubber duckie' squeak for my Bots MM...

There is a new flight sound like being in a wind tunnel when moving, even when hovering. I tried all the filenames given earlier in the thread, but none silenced it. Anyone have any ideas what this one is called?

Anybody know what sound is used by the Phantasm? That damn thing makes a constant noise the entire time it's hanging around, and I'd like to see if I can stop it. TIA.

Thanks, Tylerst. I'll have to go through and find which ones are the demon RAWR! Sorry it took so long to check back in, the mp3 you listed is no longer available.

Skimmed thread, but couldn't see anything on how to silence the hum background noise in the council and 5th column base maps.

I'm wanting to silence the "shling!" noise that Secondary Mutation makes when it does it's ocassional blue aura effect if someone has discovered it please. I keep thinking I hear a phone ringing or something, heh.
