Description

Mutes portrait sounds on the diplomacy window - which in some recent update had become wildly loud and not affected by sound settings.

Ironman compatible.

I don't have a ton of DLC but I believe it should work for all. If not, and you are sure it's not a mod, please message on Steam with a screenshot of the diplomacy window that still makes noise.

Thank you :) launcher says it's for an earlier version but it's working on 4.0

Thanks so much for this. I can't believe Paradox hasn't fixed this yet.

Wish it weren't muted but instead 'normal volume'. But my eardrums will be happy nonetheless!

Found this via your reply on that Steam forum post. Thank you so much!

@perl Theoretically yes, but that would be a much more difficult and tedious mod to make.

The way this works is that I changed all the greetings to point to a 0.5s wav file of silence. It was relatively easy to do a regex find and replace to get all of those pointers. However, every volume parameter for all sounds in these files is just "volume = x" and they cover every sound effect in the game. Not only that but every sound has a different value, like volume = 0.5, or 1, or .75, .65, even 0.25. Most of the time in one DLC every greeting has the same volume but it's clear the sound designers weren't working off a standard normal that would make this something easy to change.

I think someone could do it, but it would be much more difficult than the hour or so I spent asking GPT for regex formulae. Anyone who wants to use my mod as a springboard to see where all the greetings pointers is welcome to do so, but it's not going to be me.
