Censored_Space_Ghost 1959 Posted October 28, 2015 Go in to the sound settings and disable "Interface Sound" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yankee_One 256 Posted October 28, 2015 Thanks Ghost, thats what i did but those sounds still remain for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Censored_Space_Ghost 1959 Posted October 28, 2015 Huh, I always thought that that option turned those off as well. Hopefully somebody else will have some insight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jokerBR 25 Posted October 28, 2015 Disabling interface sound mutes everything. I would like to get rid of the menu music only. Or change it for another one of my taste. Is it possible? non-steam version here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bando 260 Posted October 28, 2015 Music can be switched off, but the interface sounds stay on. Just checked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sokol1 1559 Posted October 28, 2015 If one dont want hear not the music and the interface sound, set the volume in 0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jokerBR 25 Posted October 28, 2015 Music can be switched off, but the interface sounds stay on. Just checked. You're right. Maybe they introduced this in the latest patch? I could swear that the option to turn off just the music wasn't there before. Anyway, thanks to your post I rechecked and now I'm a happy camper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LukeFF 4516 Posted October 28, 2015 You're right. Maybe they introduced this in the latest patch? I could swear that the option to turn off just the music wasn't there before. Yes, it's a brand-new feature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xvii-Dietrich 367 Posted October 28, 2015 It would be great if the menu music could be disabled. Bonus point if you could disable the welding too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LukeFF 4516 Posted October 28, 2015 Umm, are some of you guys just not paying attention? It's been said right here in this very thread you can now disable the menu music. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No_85_Gramps 194 Posted October 28, 2015 With both disabled I still get "combat" sounds. Bullets firing, engine roar, etc. I wonder if that is what they are referring to? I had not noticed those sound before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DairyAir 3 Posted October 28, 2015 It is very annoying. Whenever I Alt. Tab. the game to do other things with my computer. The sounds continue. Since I need the sound to do some things, my only alternative is to exit the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stig 87 Posted October 29, 2015 Why not just mute BoS in the mixer while you are doing other things? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
71st_AH_Mastiff 570 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) it's in the game, I guess some people are afraid to look around in their computers? Maybe there just Xbox players and want the sound setting in the menu options instead of in the Settings options, I dont dont know some people are over analyzing stuff sometimes?

Bando 260 Posted October 29, 2015 I know Mastiff, but unchecking interface sounds does not do anything. Unchecking music does....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LLv24_Zami 779 Posted October 29, 2015 I know Mastiff, but unchecking interface sounds does not do anything. Unchecking music does....... Do you still hear the clicking sound when you use your mouse to choose stuff in the game menu? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
71st_AH_Mastiff 570 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) I know Mastiff, but unchecking interface sounds does not do anything. Unchecking music does....... unchecking the interface sounds is supposed to deactivate the clicking sounds in the menu. if its not its a bug. On my side it's working fine.

Yankee_One 256 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Its funny, my topic was Possible to disable/mute main menue sounds not music or the interface sounds. I stated they are working fine, at least for me as i was answering ghosts kind help. The interface sound activates the map sound too. Its a cool feature when you "hitting the "m" button during flight. I like it. What i have meant was the welding and gun sounds. At the moment as i see, there is no real solution for it. Thanks Edited October 29, 2015 by LcSummers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saurer 79 Posted October 29, 2015 The disable interface sounds also disables the sound when a chat message in MP pops up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bando 260 Posted October 29, 2015 It was so on my install of the game before this 1.04 update that I unchecked the interface sounds (or whatever it was called before this update) and I played the sim for about 5 weeks without the sounds of war or the welding sounds. Don't know if the clicking sounds are affected. All I wanted was the welder and background war sounds out. On the previous version they could be silenced, now they cannot. It's no big deal, just tried to help answer the op's question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Russkly 6 Posted January 30, 2016 Why not just mute BoS in the mixer while you are doing other things? Ah, how do you do that? Like DairyAir I like to Alt+Tab to other programs when not flying rather than having to exit BoS, but the welder/engine/combat sounds persist even when IL2 BoS is running in the background. Normally when you Alt+Tab away from programs it mutes them automatically. Minor annoyance, but still. At the moment, I just turn volume to 0 before leaving BoS.

VBF-12_Stick-95 803 Posted January 31, 2016 Any idea why the mixer does not remember the setting for BOS? I have to adjust it every time I start BOS. I didn't have this issue a couple of versions ago. I don't want to turn the sound down in game as I may lose content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OnTheHouse 1 Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) At the huge risk of sounding like a troll... I took a long break from flight sims and now Im coming back into the swing of things.. CoD steam vanilla, BoS steam as well as DCS Su27, and 1946 v4.12.2- I had originally bought BoS from the company but lost my serial so i bought the steam release a couple years ago or sooner. In short, I notice right away that the flickering lights were gone and- yep- the welder was gone too. I truly miss the welder in the corner and the flashes reflecting off of the fuselage. Is there any way possible to get the welder back ??? Edited May 2, 2018 by OnTheHouse spelling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
