That constant shimmering sound....

in Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition
Hey everyone. You all know that shimmering sound the "reflection" items make in game, the ones that give you a halo around your character? Anyone else get annoyed by it as much as I do? lol

Is there any way to edit a game file to mute that sound? The reflection items are great, but boy that sound is annoying lol.

    I might as well add: I just stumbled upon a Cloak of Mirroring that deflects magical spell damage and that makes a constant sound effect too.

    Is there any way to disable all these sounds? Thanks again

    Using NearInfinity you can edit CLCK26.ITM (Cloak of Mirroring). I think one of the global effects causes the sound, make a backup then you can try remove effects one by one and test it.

    Sweet. I will try that out. Will NearInfinity work with Enhanced Editions?

    Yes, just make sure you get a recent version.

    It is also possible that the game applies the specific spell (Spell Deflection and Protection from Lightning) to the cloaks so the spell files should be edited.
    Both spells have a "Play Sound" effect maybe that is the sound you find annoying.
