Short of turning all the sounds off there seems to be no 'in-game' way to do this. Personally I enjoy listening to my own shit on winamp and keep the spell sounds on. I like hearing when rogues stealth or some mage starts casting polymorph behind me. Unfortunately it seems that the music at the end of a BG doesn't count as "music" so I can't just untick that box in my sound options.

I started digging though the 7000+ sounds contained within the compressed .mpq files in my wow folder. Everything seems to be sorted out pretty meticulously except for those 2 damned victory sounds. Has anyone ever removed these sounds before? I would appreciate any help in finding these files.

Yeah... I know this is against the eula and I don't really care... I just want to listen to my own music without having that crap blow through my speakers every 5-20 minutes.

thanks for any help you can give

Couldn't something like this be done with a mod?

Just figured it out actually. The sound files were located in the 2gb patch.mpq file rather then in sound or speech. They were pretty easy to find once I opened that one. Would have been cimpler if they had been in the sound archives though.

Battlegrounds weren't in the retail package so makes sense there in the patch.mpq.

Great googly moogly.

And the correct spelling is l-o-s-i-n-g. Why so many retards add an extra "s" to that word is beyond me.
