macro to prevent trinket use error sounds

[Ynir]

To answer my own question:

/console Sound_EnableSFX 0 and /console Sound_EnableSFX 1 toggle sound effects, however, I saw this post:

* 0. /console Sound_EnableSFX 0 no longer works 11/05/2008 10:46:00 PM PST

I have been pulling my hair out to figure out why every time i tried to fire a Steady Shot, my sound would turn off. After spending hours with both the Blizz keybinds menu and re-programming my Belkin N52te, I finally figured out what the problem is.

You need to remove the following lines from any macros you might have. I am not sure if there is new replacements for these but these are the problem.

/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
and
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

Taking them out of my macro(s) and sound returns. These lines did work to reduce annoying Blizz UI sounds before patch 3.0.2

Checkout the addon SlashToggleErrors at http://wow.curse.com

I made it... Sort of tweaked 2 other addons that already existed and merged them together.

It adds /sfx0 and /sfx1 as commands you can use in macros to do what you want.

Just make sure you disable Error Speech in your Sound options though.


I downloaded the mod and looked at the LUA file:

...

function STE_Disable()
SetCVar("Sound_EnableSFX", 0)
end

function STE_Enable()
SetCVar("Sound_EnableSFX", 1)
end

...

SLASH_STE_ENABLE1 = "/sfx1"
SLASH_STE_DISABLE1 = "/sfx0"

...



From this I infer that the sound enable variable is still available but not as a /console command. I don't like having a macro depend on a mod. But I don't like trinket noise, either, so I will try this and report.
