World Editor Plays A Weird Sound.

Hi.
Everytime I click on a value, for example anywhere in the Object Editor, World Editor and/or Windows plays an alarm sound. (Windows - ding.wav, according to the Sound Options in the Control Panel.)

Why is this?
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Any ideas on how to remove it? (I rather not remove it from Windows - Control Panel -> Sound.)

Your sound was muted at the bottom right part where the status icons are. <---Not in WE but the comp status bar where internet activity and other things are.

No, it wasn't. :p
But muting temporarily takes away the annoying sound. -And all other sound, for that matter.

Maybe it's the sound card drivers?

When I removed the sound from windows (Windows - ding.wav) my computer played a sound - not from the speakers. A sound like.. Something you hear when not having an OS installed on your computer. :p

I have this same problem, have had it ever since I upgraded to Vista. And no my sound isn't muted because I listen to music while map making and I still get it. It is most annoying in the Object Editor, everytime I switch fields it plays the noise, so if I use the arrowkey to scroll down it sounds like im getting 100 warning messages at a time.

Exactly like that!
I got Vista as well.
But I KNOW I once got rid of the sound.. I'm also afraid it was because of the sound card driver.. So I tried messing around with them, but nothing works. :(
I'm pretty much used to the damn annoying sound, but sometimes I get stressed about it.. -I was when I started this thread, so yea.. I'd love for it to go away.

I was hoping there was some way to mute World Editor?
Also, is there a way to remove the intro sound that plays, every time I start WE? (It messes up my songs. :p)

Hm...
You wouldn't happen to have a sound on "Select" in Control Panel / Sounds?

Windows - ding.wav is on Standardljud (Standard Sound, in english, I believe.)
It's the same "notifying" sound I get when I, for example, have one window open that has a "sub-window" open, and try to click outside the "sub-window". -Then the "sub-window" flashes, and plays that sound and urges me to finish -whatever I'm doing- in the "sub-window", before clicking somewhere else.

I don't see any Swedish version of Select, though.

>Well, then play the sounds until you hear yours, then read all the events until you see it...

I already did.
It's called "Standard Sound" and the sound it self is called 'Windows - ding.wav'.
-I want it to remain as it is, but remove it completely from the World Editor. :p

EDIT: I set all the sound to 0% in 'Edit -> Preferences -> Sound'.
-But the damn sound STILL plays! xD

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    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
