Also found that this old script to play sounds ingame & macros, no longer works.
/script PlaySoundFile(“sound\interface\raidwarning.ogg”)

Now you have to use this format pointing to the soundID
/script PlaySoundFile(“567397”)

Edit: Note that PlaySoundFile is case sensitive.

Is there any ETA report or word on this yet?

We know you have a lot of stuff to work on but an update would be appreciated. Dispersion sounds like an odd cosmic fart, the old vt/pain/mind blast sounds were just so iconic of the spec I can’t stand the odd “pshshsffftf”. Halp.

I used the old druid sound files, as well as muted some of the more annoying roars and such that druids do on attacks. I am really missing them. If the dev’s have unpinned this thread, perhaps they have forgotten about providing us an update. Does anyone know how twitter works? maybe we can get a response from them that way?

I have a Twitter. I will see what I can do; I may be able to get ahold of customer service at some point so not sure how much information they could give, but probably not the devs. They rarely respond to inquiries there (and everywhere. Figures.)

It is up to us to keep them from forgetting this important issue, so keep on posting! :slight_smile: The General Discussion thread is here: Custom sound files not working

Any news regarding the replacement or override of existing sound files? I’d very much like to substitute some sounds for quieter ones or replace other sounds entirely with sounds I find humorous or just plain cool.

At the point just wait and see what the pre-mythic patch contains. If it’s not in there then [complain] up a storm.

Any update?

Please communicate with us on this. We were able to override sound files for over a decade, but now my hunters are unplayable.

“Patience, must remember, patience”.

Said Blizzard, as they waited for everyone to forget about this issue and give up.

They seem to do that about a lot of things… No matter! We are here and are NOT going to forget. We will remind them every day if necessary. Removing over a decade-old feature without warning and with no other options at least deserves some sort of explanation.

At least sound replacements will still work in Classic <.<
