If you are having trouble following Lewism9's instructions, there is a more clearly laid out version on reddit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/projectzomboid/comments/1hgwccl/if_there_is_a_mod_you_absolutely_cant_live/

in your C:\Users\<your username>\Zomboid\mods\AdvancedVolumeEnabler

@Lewism9 - step 3 is confusing. "In the local copy of your mod" ... ? Which folder is this?

Modder - please update!

1 - Navigate to C:\Games\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\<mod number>\mods
2 - Copy the mod to C:\Users\<your username>\Zomboid\mods - this is your local mods folder.
3 - In the local copy of your mod, make new folders called "common" and "42". Then copy everything (except for the new folders you just created) into "42"
4 - Enable in game as usual

really hope this gets converted for build 42. this was my always enable mod to change the volume of sounds.

Can you update this for Build 42? They got rid of the ambient volume setting and I really needed it.

Thank you so much, I was able to reduce the 'smash window' sound effect, it was SO loud!

Its more important to add a search button imho. Where im supposed to find the popsicle fridge sound?

Yes please this ...

"We are trying to implement a button to listen to sound, but it may take some time to do so because the way sound is played has changed since v41.54."

needs the functionality to save modded guns sounds like brita's, its possible to turn it down, but it does not save the change after game restart

The only settings I've noticed that haven't work for me is weather and music sounds. Everything else have been good. I like to make eating/drinking/actions a little quieter that isn't combat.

Does this work with the newest version of Z or not?

Ignore what nailgun said, you absolutely can turn down music volume, he just can't find the correct slider lmao.

It worked for me, thank you very much! That obnoxious panic sound would've stopped me from continuing playing otherwise.

Please fix this. Really need it! Or would anyone else be able to work on a new version please and thank you.

Doesn't even work since it's 2 years old or something

Is there a way to turn down rain sounds?

This mod is currently non-functioning; I individually changed the volume of every music track to 0%, but all official game tracks are still playing as usual. Looks like The Indie Stone aren't alone in their incompetence. This was my quickest sub then un-sub from a workshop mod so far.

Thanks for returning this standard and to-be-expected feature after it was deleted by the incompetent trolls in the PZ "development" team.

I can now play the game better due to this

You have my gratitude for making this mod. My neighbors can live in peace now.

you can decrease them with another mod , search for Advanced Volume Enabler , you will find it in the workshop , it will help you to reduce the sound of the zeds and other things too..

easily the best mod in the game.

it works but modded options don't save like brita's gun sound options for example. they are notoriously loud gun shots.enough to hurt your ears

@Kenu Yes, it worked. Just successfully installed it my server. No problems at all

Does this mod still work in the latest build? I don't see the advanced button in audio options.

please having to adjust the sound every time I restart the game is killing me

this is a great mod but is there a way to make the settings save on game restart?

Now I will never hear another eating or drinking noise ever again. Thank you!

I need this! Now I can keep away from stupid loud gun shots.

bless. I can finally mute the fucking chopping sounds that are the most annoying sound in this game

Can you edit the volume of individual tracks for the music?

@F-Rabbit Great mod. Is there any way to add the possibility to manage the sounds related to the vehicles? Thank you.

Is there a way to save your changes? Reloading a save reverts the volume of everything to the default value of 100.

I find it interesting that this mod, and a few others, still work on MP servers that don't have this mod. I'm interested to know why this is the case, as it effectively gives me an advantage in PVP being able to turn less important sounds down, such as ambient noise, and turn some up, such as foot steps.

remember a button to hear each sound, and miss it so much.
any way, thanks for great work

Hello, I am the owner of one of the larger communities and I would like to see if I could request to put your mod into a mod pack. I inform all my members of the full credits of your mod via a dedicated discord channel and a PDF made for the server that goes into mod description, controls, and full author credits. I will share any details you need, or answer any questions. Thanks again, and great work!!

Thank you so much man, I literally was thinking about refunding the game and being afraid of going past the 2 hour playtime refund limit because of the damn fridge buzzing, after I installed this and set the buzzing to zero, it went away.

You are a life saver, I can`t stand zomboid music settings where some sounds are bearly hearable while other are much louder. I don`t get it why they disabled this knowing well that more options=more people happy since you can`t please everyone with one general setting.

REALLY good mod for those who are autistic and/or have misophonia. the eating and swallowing noises in this game are just AWFUL, and this mod helps so much

I'm autistic and have really sensitive hearing, sounds like the fridge hum are intolerable. I love you for this

Hello. I want to hear only dynamic combat music (the ones that change when a mob of zombies start to aproach the player) in the game. What are the music tracks that have to be turned on?

oh and in case anyone else wants to disable it altogether, the jump-scare noise is called, "Zombie Surprised Player" underneath the "Zombie" audio tab.

i have really sensitive hearing. jump scares are a no-go. literally everything else about the game is fine, but that stupid violin screech was pissing me off to the point of uninstalling PZ forever.

thanks for letting me play! .

@F-Rabbit Try joining, in the modding channel, the official PZ Discord, lots of talented people there that can help you in solving/get ideas about how to implement the stuffs of interest for you.
Just my 2 cents. S!

@Mr. Poopy Butthole
I'm trying to implement a sound play button, but so far I haven't found a good solution.
I'm taking the time to investigate.

@ChronicleDude
I am going to check the code for the Auto item.
Currently, we are just calling the past functions of PZ, so we need to analyze them.

@Mr.poopy, there is an ''AUTO'' tab under advanced volume enabler that does exactly that. Find a weapon that you want to adjust the volume of. Fire one shot reload and then go to Advanced volume and under the AUTO tab there should be a list of recently used sounds.

i rly enjoy the mod. that said, and not to be a rude party pooper, i also find it hard to look for the sounds i want to control :((
so sad. wish there was a search feature and sound sample button. or perhaps if somebody made a descriptive list of them sounds (LOL that's a lot of work)

For anyone that have the same issue as me, i fixed it by deleting C:\users\ insertnamehere \Zomboid.
Just a reminder that doing this will also reset all options in game. so you will have to redo them.
