Silencing/Modifying specific game sounds


Oubliette_Red

Recommended Posts

Thank you for all your help!
I am trying to silence a noise made by the Spiderlings summoned by the level 35 power Summon Spiderlings in Crab Spider training. 
Every 20 seconds or so, they pulse with purple electricity and make a noise. That is what I would  like to silence.
Any ideas which .ogg it is and where it is found?

I will take a look. Probably won't be until later or some time tomorrow.

 

@Vulpoid Can you tell me what toggles are active on your Crab Spider? Epic Power Pool? Incarnate powers? The Spiderling power is level 35 but it seems that they alone do not pulse or make any noise so I wonder if it's a toggle that also affects them.

Yes, sorry about that. It is a purple electricity crackle effect. I am running all the Tactical Training buffs, as well as Maneuvers. I bet it is something like that.  If it is a buff, I can deal with that by de-toggling one by one until I find it, and then use your helpful chart to solve it. Sorry to trouble you! I was afraid it was just a constant Spiderling effect.

No bother at all. I have a Crab Spider on test that I had only leveled up to 24, jumped on earlier and raised him to 35. That's when I noticed that the spiderlings didn't seem to have their own buff 'tic'. If you can test all your toggles and find that the one that's causing the issue, that'll help narrow it down. Since it's something that 'tics' repeatedly, as opposed to when it's toggled on, then it might not be listed,

 

I try to test these in someplace quiet, like a base. Since I have base ambient silenced as well as the portal.

I'd like to replace Homecoming's main menu music with the theme song from CoH Freedom, but I can't find it anywhere, even after using the Pigg Viewer linked earlier in this thread. I know the file name is supposed to be h_music2_loop.ogg (I got it from ParagonWiki and every music file there seems to have its original name: https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//b/bb/H_music2_loop.ogg). I can't find it in the spreadsheet Oubliette_Red shared either.

 

If the song isn't in pigg files, then where is it? The developers had to have either found it somewhere, or put it somewhere, for it to show up in the game, right? Or was it renamed at some point? If anyone can help me, it would be appreciated.

 

Edit: Nevermind, I finally found it! It turns out I had to look in the hc-beta subfolder instead of the piggs one. The path to replace the main menu music is data/sound/ogg/frontend/h_menumusic_loop.ogg, in the main Tequila folder as usual.

Thanks for providing that info, it allowed me to locate the other menu music which is now in the chart.

Here's some missing info for the Sonic Attack power

 

Description: Sonic Attack > Screech

Folder name: Powers

File name: SonicScreech.ogg

 

Description: Sonic Attack > Dreadful Wail

Folder name: Powers

File name: ScreamPBAOE.ogg

 

Description: Sonic Attack > Power hits Target

Folder name: Powers

File name: sonichit2.ogg

 

And one for the character select screen

 

Category: N_UI

Description: Click 'Next' on char select

Folder name: N_UI

File name: N_Launch.ogg

 

I created a mod for the last one to replace the generic 'click' with the old-school 'pew' sound as it existed earlier in the game's timeline.

You shouldn't need a folder and sub-folder for the majority of the sfx. The 'Category' column just allows me to break down the sfx into logical sections. Many came from the Legacy forums and looking at Psionic Dart I realized that the order didn't appear correct. It should have the folder as 'Powers' with psionic4 as the sfx. I have updated it.

 

Glad you found a solution. 🙂

Electricity Mastery - Lightning Field

 

I have tried

 

...\CoH\data\sound\Ogg\Powers\lightningfield.ogg

 

...\CoH\data\sound\Ogg\V_Powers\lightningfield2.ogg

 

neither seems to be it. If anyone knows how to silence Lightning Field, I would be grateful.

Oubliette you absolute legend, thanks for the Lightning Field fix! 😄

Does anyone know the sound for Proton Stream (Radiation Blast)? I tried to give the .pigg viewers a go myself, but the standalone programs don't work on my machine and I'm struggling to make heads or tails of the online .pigg viewer.

Do you mean Proton Volley? What AT?

As has been seen with Lightning Field, it may not be the same across all ATs...  -.-

My bad: Proton Stream is the Sentinel version of Proton Volley.

I was thinking it might be that, but hadn't had a chance to hit up Beta to verify.

@The Philotic Knight, remind me later that this is the kind of thing I'd like to see added to that project as well. Maybe as a sort of expanded function.
