Mute Annoying WoW Sounds  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: BFAv8.3.1
by: kiingz [More]

This addon will mute some of the annoying sounds of WoW. If you are updating from version 8.1 or lower please read the 8.2 section as the installation instructions have changed.

Changes in patch 8.2
Patch 8.2 broke the way this addon originally worked and so has had to be reworked.
This addon is now installed into the Interface > Addons directory just like any other addon.

Since this change required a complete rework of the addon there are around ~2500 sounds missing from this version that the previous version muted.

You can safely delete the old versions installation folder "Sound" in your World of Warcraft directory.

This version only works on Retail.


Custom Sound Mutes:
If you want to mute sounds that aren't already included in the addon I've created a small tool to help you do so using sound ids found on wowhead.

To clarify, this is NOT needed to make this addon work, this is something extra and entirely optional for those who'd like to mute sounds not already included.

The download and instructions for using it can be found here:
https://github.com/Kiingy/MuteWoWSounds

The above link also contains the complete source code for anyone interested.

Basic List: Please note this isn't a complete list, it's a small sample to give an idea of whats been muted.
- Players: All race combat grunts as well as emote sounds like train and worgen sniffs. All footsteps.
- Classes: Select sounds like Path of Frost, Fan of Kives, mage armors & portals, hunter pet calls, shaman shields and spell cast fizzles.
- Mechanical Mounts: Choppers, Flying Machines, Goblin Trikes, Mechastriders and Rockets.
- Biological Mounts: Summon roars, mount special, idle and footstep sounds for most mounts. Dismount sound also included.
- Battle Pets: Idle sounds like Lil'XT, Lil'Ragnaros, Singing Sunflower and Thor.
- Hunter/Mage/Warlock Pets: Creature combat sounds, footsteps, flying and idle sounds. Mage elemental loops also included.
- Voice Acting: World bosses, Rhonin & Kalecgos city speech and Headless Horseman speech.
- Toys: Piccolo of the Flaming Fire, Train Sets and Brewfest Mole Machine.
- Daily Hubs: Isle of Thunder, Isle of Quel'Danas and Tol'Barad.
- Misc: City clock sounds, ethereal vendor hubs, waterfalls, rivers, beaches, fires and fireworks.
- Battlegrounds: Victory/Defeat, Alert and Herald sounds.
- Instances: Select boss speech and combat sounds, loops sounds like the beating heart from SoO. All instance portals.

2. Will be added in 1.8 (or 1.9).
Many thanks!

2) the worgen snarling sound they make when they're attacking something? It's a continuous RAWRAWRARWRAWR sound.

Sound\\Creature\\Tiger\\mTigerStand2A is the one you want...and yes, I agree it is the second most annoying sound in all of WoW....note that this disables the growl along with the slobber since they are both part of the same sound file...and there is no way to disable the one without also disabling the other...

Re: Cat Jowl Shake

Originally posted by Percipient
Maybe I'm missing it, but second only to the Worgen nasal clearing sound (which you have covered), the sound I would most like to mute is made by idle cat pets, and the new panther companion. It's when they stretch, roar, and then shake. It's the slobbery jowl shake sound I'd like to silence. I feel like I should shower after every time I hear it.

Is it all ready covered and I didn't see it? I'm picking and choosing just a few sounds I want muted, because most of them don't bother me, but I don't see one that seems relevant to idle cats.
Do you mean cat pets as in hunter pets?
If so they share the same sounds as the tiger mounts.

I believe the new cat cub pets (Panther and Winterspring Cub) also share those sounds.

Hi,

I downloaded this specifically just for the sunflower. It was cute the first 100 times, but now it's just annoying to hear.

Sadly, I seem to be blind and can't find any folder with the word sunflower on it. Could you tell me where it is located and/ or what it's called, please?
If you check the text file that's included with the download you'll find it. (That's why I included it!)

Singing Sunflower:
Sound\\Event\\EVENT_PvZ_Babbling
Sound\\Event\\EVENT_PvZ_Dadadoo
Sound\\Event\\EVENT_PvZ_Doobeedoo
Sound\\Event\\EVENT_PvZ_Lalala
Sound\\Event\\EVENT_PvZ_Sunflower
Sound\\Event\\EVENT_PvZ_Zombieonyourlawn
