Monkey noises!
Is there any way to turn off the noises of certains species in the game? A mod? Some files to change something on it? I just can't stand any monkey noises and it's triggering me a lot. Please help!!!

Just let's keep in mind that using a moded game on official network goes against CoC. By moded I meant making any modifications on the app. It can range from adding, removing to tempering any files.

With that said, WC seems to have poor dev standards. Depending on which dev and when the task was done, you may end up with a diferent answer. So there goes the consistency of the current software state.

Long story short, you may find most creature sounds there:
[..]/ARK/ShooterGame/Content/PrimalEarth/Dinos/<CREATURE NAME>/Sounds/

i.e. for the Yuti:
[..]/ARK/ShooterGame/Content/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Yutyrannus/Sounds

Some other time, you may find sounds in other places like in "test" or official mods folders.

Have fun hacking your game :)

Unless you want to make a mod, no.

you cant silence nature nor should you. Embrace it...go punish yourself by taming 20 monkeys and locking them in your wee hut.

I don't want monkeys. I hate them. I don't want to see nor hear them. They are the number one on my KOS list.

Thank you! I'm playing on a solo game so I will try it out. In the worst case the game will detect files missing and download them back.

If you hate them so much why not edit the game ini to stop monkeys from spawning in the first place, its pretty easy. For example I can't stand the Pegomastax so have put this in the ini to stop them spawning........NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Pegomastax_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")
The only thing you must remember to do is to do a wild dino wipe to clear the game of already spawned in ones.
