Does anyone know how to disable the Bonfire blessing sound when you receive the zone-wide buff? it’s probably the most obnoxious thing I’ve ever heard in this game. Is there a way to disable or at least delete the sound file associated with it?
I think its the Molten Armor sound, Molten Armor Head1 probably.
so in your “World of Warcraft/_classic_” folder, make a new folder called “sound” and a folder in there called “spells” and then create a new text file and rename it from “new text document.txt” to “molten_armor_head1.ogg”
So you will end up with “../World of Warcraft/_classic_/sound/spells/molten_armor_head1.ogg”
This will take priority over the in-game sound file, and because its an empty file, it will have no sound data
This will also mute any other spell that is similar, such as your own mage’s molten armor.
Edit: You need to restart the entire client after making this file
There is also an in-game API called MuteSoundFile
You can type /run PlaySoundFile(10011) to test that is the sound you want to mute (10011 should be molten armor)
and then you can type /run MuteSoundFile(10011) to mute it until your UI reloads. So you can throw it in a macro and mute it for the play session, or you can probably make a Weak Aura to run that command for you, but I don’t know how to make a Weak Aura do that.
And after all that, if that is not the sound you are trying to block, you can look on WowHead for the buff name, and try to locate the in game spell associated with the buff to locate its sound files and get file names and file IDs that work with the API.
Ran that script but that doesn’t seem to be the sound file. Do you have any recommendation on how to look it up?
I use an addon called MuteSoundFile. Has a huge library of in game sounds, that you can play, and subsequently mute if you don’t like it. I’ve muted a ton of in game sounds, the main one being the ‘bwong’ noise it makes when you try to use an item when its on CD.
I just looked up Bonfire’s Blessing on wowhead, and its sound tab has 3 sounds associated with it
tbc [dot] wowhead [dot] com/spell=45444/bonfires-blessing#sounds
./script MuteSoundFile(568968); MuteSoundFile(569764);
Figured it out thanks to this thread, thought I’d share.
