Tempus Fugit is WAY too loud, what can be done?

Hello!

Can anything be done about the incredibly loud and at its core very annoying persistent sound effect ticking away whenever the ultra powerful spell Tempus Fugit is activted? It's arguably the most useful spell in the game for a Fighter/Mage, but I find myself almost never using it because of the pesky noise it generates. I'd love to see it gone (or at least turned down by a lot!).

Thanks!

 

My computer comes with a volume control.
As a matter of fact, so does Arcanum.

 

Yeah, but volume control affects ALL of the game sounds.

krille probably finds only Tempus Fugit sound effect annoying (similar to the loud flapping wings of the familiar) and likes all other Arcanum sounds, right?

 

Bingo!

 

Actually, he has a good point. Tempus Fugit is a massive pain in the ears (had ya going there). If someone can work out how to turn it down without turning EVERYTHING down, I'd be most appreciative.

 

OK, to all the people who find sounds like this annoying, here's a small noise reducing patch. It replaces the following sounds with blank files.
-Elemental Stat Boosts (ST,CN, DX, BE)
-Tempus Fujit
-Krag/Familiar fidget

Just put the file into your Arcanum folder. Since it uses blank .wav files instead of modifying sound lists, it should be compatible with any version of the game.

 

Awesome. No more pulsating Agility of Fire noise driving me up the wall.

 

Yep. Thanks again, Drog.

 

Thank you Drog, you are my hero!

 

i have installed the game to play it again and i noticed the sound is way too loud.im playing a melee mage with tempus fugit and the sound is bugging me.please... can somebody upload this file, the link from drog doesnt work anymore..

 

I hate to disappoint you, but just recently we had a debate about that file and it seems no one has it anymore. It is most propably lost forever.



Nah, I'm just screwin' with ya.
