It's just one directory up: /Sound/Spells/</p> <p>This wont change the sound of your specific bobber, though. This will only replace the sound of the bobber splash entirely. Everyone else's bobber will still sound the same as yours does. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/different-fishing-sound#post-6638 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 17:32:22 +0000 el 6638@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>This should work, but I've not tested it:</p> <ol> <li>Convert the sound file you want into .wav format. If you need software to do that, try Audacity.</li> <li>Create directories within the WoW directory: /Data/Sound/Spells/</li> <li>Copy the .wav file into the new Spells directory 3 times, and rename to: FishingBobber_ver2_1.wav, FishingBobber_ver2_2.wav, and FishingBobber_ver2_3.wav</li> </ol> <p>Basically, you're replacing the game files normally found within the .mpq data packages. Most files can be changed this way, however some files are protected - the game checks for the original file. That generally happens where hacking the file would give you an in-game advantage. As far as I'm aware, the fishing bobber sound files are not checked (but the bobber model graphics are). </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/different-fishing-sound#post-6607 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 08:23:39 +0000 Maklesh 6607@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Ello o/</p> <p>I was wondering if there's an addon that changes the sound of the fishing bobber when catching a fish. </p> <p>I currently use FishermansFriend (don't need/want all the extra options from Fishing Buddy) and I love it. The thing I don't like is when fishing close to someone their sound goes just as loud as mine and I sometimes click the bobber at the wrong time because of it. Since I mostly fish and watch tv or do something else I'd like to prevent such confusion.</p> <p>Now I saw a Bert and Ernie thing in the addons section, but I'd rather not have them saying that stuff while watching a movie or something :P<br /> Second question would be; would any such addon change the sound of other ppl catching fish as well? Cause in that case it won't matter anyways :&gt;</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Maklesh </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/bobber-splash-silent#post-3847 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 13:42:26 +0000 Carusun 3847@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Problem solved; I had recently played with my sound settings, and activating 'Use Hardware' (under the Sound Channels option) had made it so that I couldn't hear the bobber when it was distant. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/bobber-splash-silent#post-3846 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 13:27:56 +0000 Carusun 3846@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>I'm at a loss here; I'm raising my fishing skill, when all of a sudden, my bobber splashes no longer make any noise. I've got the casting sound, the reeling in sound and all other sounds, but not the bobber splash. Any ideas on what I've done to gain this selective deafness? </p>
