[dev 1009] Volume adjustment window broken

[Purplenv]

Dev attention amazing.

I'm been playing since December muted, because I couldn't turn down the background noise that was overbearing the movies I have to watch, just to keep things fun.

Update: The dev. team is going to be checking into this and I hope we'll have an update for everyone soon.

Thanks again for the comments!

I agree, but those of you on Vista/w7 can right click the little sound manager in your taskbar and disable the sound for ffxiv until they do. Thanks to a guildie who told me about this.

Thanks for posting that i'm on w7 and I never noticed that before.

Glad to see this is being fixed. Sometimes I want to listen to the ingame sounds and music and other times I like to pop on standup comedy or some out of game music while Doing craft or dol stuff. But the ambient sounds never go away. In all honestly please just merge the CONFIG utility fully into the game client like 99% of mmos already do, its a hassle to need to restart the client and play with a second program to do all this.

Hello everyone, back with an update for you.

Unfortunately, the volume settings for those sounds aren't separated out in a way that makes them adjustable. In the future, the team is planning to update it so that it is separate; however, there are other things that are higher priority for the development team work wise, so it will take a bit of time to take care of this.

What a stupid way of coding

That said, thanks for giving us an update. Glad it is going to be fixed and I agree there are more pressing matters that needs to be taken care of first.

Wurd up. There are more important things, the ambient sounds not being able to be adjusted in game is just a minor annoyance.

Sounds alright with me. This will be a nice bug fix someday, but 1.17 is and should be priority right now. Patch is gonna be a game changer!

So-so, I have all sound /music on zero and I continue to hear the wind. It's annyong when you talk with others in ventrilo/skype/others.

Well i know it is annoying, I turn my sounds down when i feel like watching an anime while crafting too, but still hear the annoying wind noise. It still isn't as important as other issues in the game. If it isnt something they can immediately tend to because the old dev team was 'not so good' at coding things, then we will just have to wait on this one.
