Changing WoW sound files? Please help!

Hey guys, been trying to figure out how to change my Kul’tiran druid’s bearform noises to regular bearform ones. Done a lot of research and tried to follow steps found on the WoW forums and here:

  • First I have located the names of the files I wanted to replace here: https://www.wowhead.com/sounds/name:kultiran_bearform

  • I made a ‘Sound’ folder under Worldofwarcraft / retail and nested a “Spells” folder inside that.

  • Then I found the sounds I wanted to replace them with here: https://www.wowhead.com/sounds/name:bearform

  • downloaded them via the three dot menu on the sound players. They came thru as ‘files’ no file extension type attached

  • Renamed them all after the kultiran bear noise files and manually added the .ogg at the end

  • placed the files into the spells folder and restarted WoW completely

Still doesn’t work! Can anyone with experience please tell me what im doing wrong?

Given that those Kultiran sounds don’t actually play on Wowhead is a likely indicator they don’t exists in-game (yet??) or you are looking at the wrong sound files.

Oof this is starting to get a little over my head heh. Thanks for the info! I downloaded Leatrix sounds and found the kul-tiran ones ingame as:
MON_DR_KulTiran_bearform_AttackCrit# 128919
for example. Im not sure what the # and numbers are for after.

When attempting to download the listfile it just brings up a huge page of text what am I doing noobily here? heh I cannot download it as a file from github no matter what I try.

I am assuming my pathing is wrong? Worldofwarcraft / Retail / Sound / Spells / (files are here) is probably the wrong path. I tried to manually peruse the listfile but it is impossible.

My guess of Worldofwarcraft / _ Retail _ / Sound / Creature / Druidbearkultiran / (files are here) did not work :T

The numbers after the sound names in Leatrix Sounds are their SoundKit ids. (internal number id to file lookup).

The huge file can be Saved As a text file.

I had a quick look in the listfile and can’t find the files mentioned (the files in Creature/Druidbearkultiran are all images and animations etc.)

I managed to save the listfile into a txt document as you say but can’t seem to select it or open it in Cascviewer at all.

I am genuinely lost when it comes to finding these Kultiran bearform soundfiles if even you can’t spot them!

The listfile is used by Casc Explorer (and needs to be copied to the same folder) as an extraction tool but it is also useful to use as just a list of files found so far by the community (probably best to open it with text editor a bit more powerful than Windows NotePad like NotePad++)

In this case, your sound file(s) aren’t there which means more involved (probably time consuming) digging.

Its just very odd that Leatrix sounds easily finds the filenames ( Mon_DR_KulTiran_BearForm_AttackCrit etc. which means they are in the game correctly(?)
However looking through the list in Casc those files don’t exist as far as I can tell o: i’ve scoured under kultiran bear NPCs like Ulfar, theres no thornspeakers, the wikerbeasts and drustvar monsters have their unique noises. I have no clue what else it could be lurking under.

Leatrix is a very (very) savy WoW addon author. The sounds list used in LTS are extracted for the addon (you can find them in the Leatrix_Sounds_Sounds.lua file in the addon folder) but it only lists the file name and SoundKit id, not the path.

Im straight up willin to make a digitally painted icon of someones WoW character if they can figure this out/walk me thru it TAT

Hi,

I think I found them, I’ve included a download below, extract this to your World of Warcraft / retail folder.

Alternatively, heres the folder structure if you’d like to replace them yourself:

Create a blank .ogg file, copy and rename it to match the filenames listed above and place them in the respective form folders.

Let me know if these work.
