Mini-mod, tooltip sound (annoying, removed).

Unread postby Hipshot » 20 May 2006, 16:15

Is it just me or do everyone hate the idiotic hover (tooltip) sound that plays _everytime_ you place the mouse over _anything_? Well, I did a minimod to remove that sound. I don't feel it's needed, it does more harm than good this way and I'll better of without it.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, listen to this (actually, loop it for say 5min and then if you're still sane, let us know) (44KB):

Download this (1KB):

Install like this:
Place the "sounds" dir in your "H5/data/" dir, as easy.
(I should mention, that this mod doesn't edit any data file, it just "replaces" the sound that is into "nothing", to remove this mod, just delete the files you installed.)

Peace out!

That's what I like in H5: its easy modability. (Look at Equilibris and see what I mean.)

Thank you! The mod works. I had thought that annoying sound was a problem with my sound card. It is a bit baffling really why the developers thought that sound was a good idea.

Thanks, man. I didn't find it too annoying, but silence is better anyway.

The mod is now hosted on the new mod page at Celestial Heavens. I will post something in the news tomorrow.
I'm on Steam and Xbox Live.

Thanks a lot, I can't see how they thought having that annoying sound play about 10 000 times per gameplay session was a good idea 8|
