How can I make the "item successfully used" sound not play?

[KChasm]

An example of the sound can be heard here:
Note that it's not the first few sounds, like from when I call the menu, but the more "flourishy" sound.

I don't know what information is relevant, but I'm using common events that are set off by using items and with the whole "item used" stuff happening if the player is in the right position and looking in the right direction.

I'm also using mjshi's Non-Combat Menu v1.04a, which I've copied into the quote below:


#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Non-Combat Menu v1.04a
#-- Fully customizable menu geared toward less battle-oriented games.
#-- By mjshi
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Installation: Put above Main, preferably also above other custom scripts.
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Update notes:
#- Added support for most quest log scripts.
#- Added support for separators.
# Bugfixes:
#- Fixed the gold window bug
#- Forced the ingame menu command to call the Non-Combat Menu rather than the
# regular one.

# What should the actual menu show?
# Put a # in front of the ones you don't want to show, and you can reorder
# this list to change the order in the menu.
# **Don't remove the comma after each []!**
#
['Items', :item],
['Status', :status],
['Save', :save],

# Other possible commands:
#['Equipment', :nequip],
#['Quest Log', :quests],
#['Formation', :nform],
#['Load', :load],
#['Cancel', :cancel],

# :none does nothing, so it's ideal for spacers or separators.

Thanks. Please tell me if you need any more information.

Also, I'd prefer it if that flourishy sound could keep being a thing in most cases, just not in this specific case when this item is used in this location.

What a coincidence! I just did this on the project I'm preparing for No travel Jam! Haha
In the script editor, find "Scene_ItemBase" and go to line 136 (by default)




Just uncomment the line 136 (that I highlighted).
It's good to uncomment, because you can easily undo what you did if you change your mind or have a problem!

In my case, I just modified it so as not to make a sound if it is a key item.

I see. Is there a way to make it so that it doesn't play sound in a certain situation, but plays sound usually? It doesn't seem like there is, huh.

Use this script call

$data_system.sounds[22].volume = 0

When you're done, turn back the volume to the original value.
Should do the trick.

Do note that this script call will not get carried over to the save content. So if you silent the sound effect, save the game, reboot the game, then load the game, the sound effect will still on.

Sorry, I'm not entirely sure I understand. Where should I be putting this code, and how can I tell what original value the volume has originally?

Event command > Page 3 > Script

and how can I tell what original value the volume has originally?

Database > System > Category "Sound Effect" > Use item

Thanks.
