I have learned to play the game with the sound off. No need to wave a red cape in front of the bull.....

Before I first started up AE, I renamed the sound and video directories to help things move along more quickly.  I've never seen any of the videos nor heard a single sound effect from AE.  [:D]

That reminds me of a good joke.

Being a divorced guy who lives alone except when the kiddos are over I know not of what you speak, That said, my WiTP PBEM opponent Larry's family referred to me as his mistress. Normally I would be offended but it was just too funny

I substituted the sound clip of the call to General Quarters. Do that and tell her it's a different, new game.

For the record, my lady likes that I have a hobby that keeps me at home and not a golf course. Our computers are in the same room, so we get together time when I play.

I have uploaded the zip file of the GQ sound clip to the Tech forum if anyone is interested. Just unzip it and drop it into the sound folder, after you've backed up your present sound file "1015."

Many, many WITP sound clips are at http://mathubert.free.fr/main_content.htm mostly back in the 2004-2005 era. (Scroll down.) I have never not had one work in AE. I substitute some sounds every so often just to keep it fresh, especially the ground combat and aircraft noises.

It's not so funny when you realize that "mistress" is made up from "mister" and "mattress." [8|]
