Macro command to disable Voice Dialog

[thottstation]

Many years ago, I needed a 1-button macro I could click to enable or disable Background Music.

I found it:

/run Sound_ToggleMusic();

It's worked great for years, and is a quick and easy toggle for the times I wish to turn the Backround Music off or back on again.

Now I need the same for NPC voices.

I can go into the Options menu (System/Audio) and tick or untick the box for DIALOG... but that's too time consuming. I just need a 1-click macro button in my UI.

I haven't found anything in my Google searches, and experiments with swapping keywords in the above Music macro have been unsuccessful.

Anyone know the Command Line for toggling NPC Dialog?

That shouldn't work, since GetCVar returns a string. You need to use tonumber in order for 1-v to work.

/run local k,v="Sound_EnableDialog" v=tonumber(C_CVar.GetCVar(k)) C_CVar.SetCVar(k,1-v) print("Dialogue "..(v==1 and "Disabled" or "Enabled"))

You know ctrl+m is default for turning the music off or on. No macro required

and ctrl+s for sounds. I use both all the time

I was going to mention that there's a keybind for music, but they specifically mentioned they wanted to click something.

Also, the default ctrl+s turns off Sound Effects, Ambience, and Dialog, but OP just wanted a Dialog toggle. Below is the function that runs when using the sounds keybind:

function Sound_ToggleSound()
    if ( GetCVar("Sound_EnableAllSound") == "0" ) then
        ActionStatus:DisplayMessage(SOUND_DISABLED);
    else
        if ( GetCVar("Sound_EnableSFX") == "0" ) then
            SetCVar("Sound_EnableSFX", 1);
            SetCVar("Sound_EnableAmbience", 1);
            SetCVar("Sound_EnableDialog", 1);
            ActionStatus:DisplayMessage(SOUND_EFFECTS_ENABLED);
        else
            SetCVar("Sound_EnableSFX", 0);
            SetCVar("Sound_EnableAmbience", 0);
            SetCVar("Sound_EnableDialog", 0);
            ActionStatus:DisplayMessage(SOUND_EFFECTS_DISABLED);
        end
    end
end

The macro works as-is. Must be getting automatically cast or something.

/run local ...

This works great! Thank you so much.

(Hopefully the day will come where Blizzard separates the NPC reaction emote dialog when you click them, and the spoken voice lines played only during quests, so you can activate one but not the other.)
