Hello all,
Would like to play more DW2, alas the U.I click pains me, as does the background sounds of stellar bodies.
How would i alter or remove them?
thanks,
XTRG.

As far as I know, sound is not yet moddable

- except you're able to do it with Harmony.

Me are bugging other sounds and I have the same questions.
The hyperjump is it for me as well as the dying sound of the space monsters.
I would love to replace them with no sound at all.
If it is not possible to just remove them like the music,
how do I find out how harmony does that?
P.S.: It uses Stride, what does Harmony with it?

A rudimentary support for the use of Harmony (0Harmony.dll) was implemented some time ago, but you have to have some coding-knowledge/skills in order to use it.
Harmony in general can alter things when loaded into the system RAM, so you technically can edit everything the game uses - but like I said you really have to know how to do such things.

(which I personally don't, but I have a son who works as a professional programmer, who can do this

- but sadly he hasn't got much time or interest for 4X-games.

)
(P.S.: No, it's not possible to "just remove them like the music", because they are stored away in the db-files and you would have to export/import them first (unless you know how to use stride for this

))

Thank you for that input.
If I have some time and the game is playable.. I will consider laying hands on it.
