Turn off sound?
« on: December 14, 2009, 17:37:18 »
Inquiry:

It seems to me like there is no way to turn off the sound. And since I'd much rather listen to the latest Converge record than any form of game music, this seems a little annoying. Any way of fixing this or do I just seem like an old man complaining about his neighbours playing too loud?

If there's a way to shut off the sound ingame, I don't know about it. You may want to try something like IndieVolume.
Anyway, the music in all of Nifflas' games fits in perfectly with the atmosphere, it's as much a part of the game as, say, the puzzles or the graphics... I'd recommend that you give it a try at least.

Yeah, I did, and the music fits perfectly. It's just that some days I can't stand game music, some days I do. I want to be in control of what i listen to!  :crazy:

I suggested an option to turn off sound during beta testing phase, but Niff said it was too complicated to implement, so yeah. Just deal with it. :P

If you've got Vista or Windows 7, you should be able to mute individual programs. It'll mute the music, but the downside is that you won't hear any of the sound effects, either. :)

Didn't know you could do that without an extra program... can you tell me how? :)

Right-click on the volume icon on the taskbar, then choose "open volume mixer".
good bye
