HI thehelper people!

My question now is about the Special Effects, is there a way to create a special effect but without its sound?.
Because some times the default sound of an SE does not match with the use im giving to it.
For example, one of my heroes is a Magician, for his dessaparition skill i use the Polymorph effect, but when i create the effect it plays the sound of a sheep. i Would like to create the SE but use another sound.
Is it posible?? How? why? when? where? :p

i believe sound is determined in the spell, like a sound field, check if it has a field where you can set impact sound and cast sounds

Yeas, in the skills you can set the sounds. But for example when you make a triggered spell and in some part of it you add a SE you cannot set the sound of that SE, it just plays its default sound.
And the polymorph is just an example, i will need a more general solution, since this problem is whit more than one SE.

well i was saying channel because i believe you can remove any sounds it makes if it makes any at all, its the single most flexible in game spell because it has nothing hard coded except that it is a channelling spell

How about you read what im asking, that has nothing to do with the skill itself but with the SE added through triggers?

AMN:

I dont know if im cute, but your solution works for me.
Thx!!!!!!

i was only meaning to use it because anything you do with the spell must be triggered, making it perfect for any spells that are giving you trouble due to hardcoding, which is what i thought the issue was here, hardcoding of the sound file for the spell

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
