Description:

SaveMyEars v1.5 is a lightweight mod that aims to specifically disable sound effects that can get highly repetitive and aggravate conditions like tinnitus, causing ear fatigue and auditory hallucinations in some cases.

**PLEASE NOTE** I’m not a Doctor, but have personally experienced situations like playing the game for 12 hours straight then for the next 48 hours hearing nothing but those in-game beeps, even when outside. I do not personally suffer with tinnitus but as a musician understand ear fatigue is a thing and over-stressing the ears causes hearing loss over time.

NEW IN V1.5
– Snow maps fixed!
– Default sounds included to override tools that have loud obnoxious sound effects.
– More efficient and hopefully more compatible with other mods
– A huge list of configurable sounds that you can choose to mute
– You can override sounds with your own OGG files, some defaults are included
– Default Sounds are included in the mod workshop folder but can be overridden by using the user folder in the options panel.

Included defaults are:
– Dampened road drawing clicking noise
– Lowered volume, duration and dampened bulldozer effects
– Placing item sound is shorter and less intrusive
– Tutorial alerts are less annoying
– UI interaction sounds are less obnoxious
– Included modified ambient sounds for city with frequency of beeps excluded using audio processing

If you encounter any issues please let me know and I will investigate. If a sound is not included in the list please try to describe to be what causes the sound (Is it a building?) and I’ll try to get it added.
