I did what you said, but now CoH doesn't work right! To rename the "silence.ogg" file you copied into the "weapons" folder right-click on the file and choose "Rename" (or highlight it and press the "F2" key). You then right-click on an empty spot in the open "weapons" folder/window and pick "Paste". You can also right-click on "silence.ogg" and pick "Copy". If you hold down the "Ctrl" key you can click on and drag the "silence.ogg" file to the "weapons" folder you created. Just to give you an idea of what you should see, here is my data\ogg folder\sub-folders: Once you copy your "silence.ogg" into the "weapons" folder you then rename it to "targetdrone_loop.ogg". If you have never silenced a sound that goes in the "weapons" folder then you will need to make a "weapons" folder first. To silence this sound you copy your "silence.ogg" file to a folder called "weapons". If CoH is running while you do this (not recommended), exit completely (quit to desktop, not the log-in screen) first. The next time you launch CoH that sound will not be made. The "File name:" provided here is what you need to rename that copy of your "silence.ogg" file to. The name of the folder is where you copy your "silence.ogg" file to. The "Folder name:" provided here is located in the "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\data\sound\ogg\" folder. The information provided for a specific sound assumes you have already created the above base folder. The name of the sub-folder depends on the sound. Each sound you wish to silence will go in a sub-folder. The sounds will be grouped in sub-folders inside the "ogg" folder. You now have your base file location set. Open the "sound" folder you just created and add a new folder called "ogg".Open the "data" folder you just created and add a new folder called "sound".Open the "City of Heroes" folder and create a new folder called "data".If you do not see the folders, you or the 3rd party would need to create them as follows: Simply put: if any of the following folders already exist then you or a 3rd party put them there. *You are not making any changes to any files owned/installed by CoH*. If you installed it someplace else then you should know enough to adapt these instructions to fit your custom installation. This assumes that you installed the game to its default directory. The base location for all your silenced sound files is:Ĭ:\Program Files\City of Heroes\data\sound\ogg\ You need to know where to copy it and what to rename it as so the game will use your silent sound file instead of the default sound file. OK, now that I have a silent sound what do I do with it? I use the 'bloop' file to verify the sound I'm replacing is the one I'm looking for, since it's a lot easier to notice than silence.
I have attached two files to this post: '_silence.ogg' and 'bloop.ogg'. You won't need to use Audacity again (for this) unless there is something wrong with that "silence.ogg" you just made. You will be copying this file to folders you create and renaming it so keep that in mind when deciding what to call it and where to save it. I recommend calling it "silence.ogg" and saving it to the Desktop.
HEROES GENERALS HOW TO WHISTLE FREE
How I did it was to use a free program called Audacity. Where do I get one second of silence in the *.ogg format? In other words, to kill a sound you replace it with one second of silence. This replacement file must be in the Ogg Vorbis format and it can not be of zero length. The way to kill any game sound is to put another sound file in the correct directory with the name of the sound file used to make that noise. I want to provide enough information so that every CoH player can improve their personal game play experience.

These instructions are meant for anyone with minimal Windows knowledge. If you returning to the thread and just want to jump straight to the sounds: UPDATE: If you intend on changing more than a few sounds then I highly recommend heading over to Philotic Knight modding tool thread, where you can change more than just game sounds. I try to keep it updated with sfx files that others have managed to identify and if you are only interested in changing a few sounds, it'll do fine but if you plan on changing a whole host of sfx and more I highly recommend the tool below.
Impkin's instructions are largely intact and I cleaned and dredged through the thread down to the files identified up to the last post. I pulled these posts from the archived forums. Revived from the archived forums: "How to silence specific game sounds" - By Impkin
