Press esc -> options -> Music & Sounds -> turn down friendly creatures
I for one love to hear the sound my kitten makes. If you don't like it, you can always turn down the friendly creatures sound level.

 

But then you lose the ability to hear your footsteps, blocks breaking, and others' footsteps.

1+ for this

 

No. We paid for them. You shall listen to them.

 

Pay for them or not, I don't think bothering users with unbearable sounds is right. I am sure some people will donate, at some point, just to harass and troll users with pet sounds.. Maybe even in large groups. :/ I should not have to turn off ALL of my sounds just to make other people happy. I would honestly leave the game and not come back until/when/if people put their pets away or left populated areas.

I agree that a sound toggle should be added, however... I think that would be a client-side thing. There are probably mods for it, but I do not think it's something that a plugin can do.

 

Breaking blocks isn't affected by friendly creatures. And for what possible reason outside of SG would you need to hear footsteps?

 

I found that it is. And yes, I sg a lot and also idle at spawn. I find it extremely annoying to have cats being crazy annoying when I am doing other things.

 

As andrew introduces different pets, is this going to affect those pets? What about those same mob types in the wild?

I really can't -1 it, since it wouldn't affect me either way (I would leave sounds on). But I wonder if it is worth the effort to code server/plug-in side compared to the solutions already provided. If it really is a simple fix with just a couple lines of code, sure... why not? Go for it. I don't mind whoever needs to look into it, to at least look. But I don't think it is a 'make or break' thing. There are other options, even if they aren't ideal to you.

:p On a side note, how anyone can find the cat meows annoying is beyond my comprehension. :p

 

Just turn down your volume :p It saves hassle.

 

But the noises are so cute! :D

Press Esc, then click options, then click music/sound, then put mobs to 0%
Done.

...or do this, press a mute button on your keyboard. You're done.
It's that simple.

It's not like your computer lag when you hear that sound.

please make this a command, thanks! ;)

 

I suggested that we could toggle to see them as a whole. I'll sacrifice having to see them, so long as I don't have to hear them.

 

Do you just mean the pet feature, or all pets in general?

 

I mean that we can toggle if we want to see the pets or not. That would just be clientside.

 

Oh, okay!
