Simple option to mute game sounds after you die and are spectating and waiting for match to end.

Do you not have a mute button on your keyboard? Or a volume knob on your speakers?

What's your reason for this?

[Cyberassassin]

Other sounds heard, i.e. ventrillo, music, etc... is desirable.

Since the spectate window is hanging out while you are watching others, have a button for mute on it.

Hearing mechs take a/c rounds gets annoying. (think about that ac/2 boat with a macro that is pounding away on your team)

yeah, just turn your comp's sound off. I'd like, however, the ability to disable the chat after you die.....heck, just have to option to disable the chat for the whole match.

This AutoHotKey script works for me but I run in a fullscreen window. It brings up the mixer for a split second so it will take you out of fullscreen. It makes your mute button only mute MWO (ctrl+mute is mute all). Using Win 7 64.

#NoEnv ;// Recommended for new scripts
#Persistent ;// Recommended for new scripts
SendMode Input  ;// Recommended for new scripts
SetTitleMatchMode 2
 
;// Set VolumeMute to only silence MWO
$Volume_Mute::
	MuteMWO()
	return
;// Control+VolumeMute is the system mute now
^Volume_Mute::Volume_Mute
 
MuteMWO()
{  
	;// Open mixer
	Run sndvol
	WinWait Volume Mixer
	appName = MechWarrior Online
	MuteApp(appName)
	WinClose Volume Mixer
}
 
;// Volume Mixer must exist
MuteApp(appName)
{
	;// Find X position & width of textblock with text matching our appName
	ControlGetPos, refX, , refW, , % appName, Volume Mixer
	;// Find button with left side within the width of the textblock
	x = -1
	while ( x != "")
	{
		;// A_Index is current loop iteration→used to find id
		tbIDX := (A_Index * 2)
		ControlGetPos, x, , , , ToolbarWindow32%tbIDX%, Volume Mixer
		diff := x - refX
		if (diff > 0 && diff < refW)
		{
			;// msgbox diff: %diff% refX: %refX% tbIDX: %tbIDX% x: %x% A_Index: %A_Index%
			ControlClick, ToolbarWindow32%tbIDX%, Volume Mixer
			break
		}
	}
}

I don't care so much I checked all of them.

Just alt-tab to another window. Sounds are auto-muted when in another window.
