Sound Volume

[MelTraX]

To get your unit sounds back to full volume until the next Spring release, open "C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\springsettings.cfg" and set "UnitReplyVolume" to 100 (as well as UnitReplySoundVolume just to be sure )..

[imbaczek]

or /unitreplyvolume ingame (type /unit<TAB>); set to 1 for max

You can set all config values from ingame:

Code: Select all

/seti UnitReplyVolume 100

you can also use this:
http://springlobby.info/installer/springsettings.exe (replace current with that and adjust reply volume)

I dont see why anyone would ever want unit reply to 100.

Set it to something below 10, or you go insane after spamming some flashes/gators

scaling has changed

[koshi]

what the hell? i specifically asked if range and default setting could remain the same

[jK]

and I said unitreplies were loaded with a default volume of 5.0f before and now with 1.0f.
so the old default of 20 should now be 100.

[koshi]

all i took from that convo was:

Code: Select all

Jan 13 00:51:05 <_koshi_>	Auswaschbar: tell me what to do please, too tired for thinking 
...
Jan 13 00:51:46 <MelBot>	<Auswaschbar> UnitReplySoundVolume -> UnitReplyVolume
...
Jan 13 00:52:00 <_koshi_>	that's all? default 20 ok?
Jan 13 00:52:22 <MelBot>	<Auswaschbar> ok

[jK]

you cut my stuff :p

(and me was the one who wrote those 2 patches)

[koshi]

I cut your stuff because i didn't get it then, see first line of the paste

Anyways, if I put default at 100 I'm at the end of current range, should I just scale that by 5 too?
I'm not exactly keen on performing any internal scaling (ie representing 0-100 to user and write sth else)

[jK]

500% seems a bit much. IMO 150% seems for reasonable.

[Forboding Angel]

why the change? Just to make it more "Uniform" across sound settings?

Also... doesn't the installer dl springsettings from the site each time? SO if I run the installer now, wouldn't it grab the absolute latest?

[koshi]

Yes it will. The "Reply volume" slider now controls the value of "UnitReplyVolume" instead of "UnitReplySoundVolume", max is 150, default 100 (read; 150%, 100% )

As for the why of change, jk better answer that, I've been informed only after it was already done and producing the fubar in current release.

edit: remember this volume is relative to global sound volume
