hammer noise when crafting arrows removal
can we please remove the hammer noise from game when making arrows and tranq arrows. when you're mass producing >200 arrows, the harring becomes very similar to water boarding. Hearing the hammers pound away for that long in such rapid succession is a guaranteed way to get a headache. Any way to turn off just the hammering without touching any other audio in the game?

+1 that crafting noise is terrible
I usually click on some other window so the sound stops.

I agree, but a work around for now if you manage to find the blueprints for arrows and tranq arrows.

Take blueprint plus mats, stuff them all on a dino. Tell dino to craft blueprint to the max amount, and then close the inventory. Dino will craft all the arrows and you won't have to listen to it, or have your movement slowed cause you're busying crafting. Keep in mind this only works with blueprints, and your dino will need sufficient carry weight to hold all the mats for what hes crafting.

Just turn down your computer volume while you are crafting.

You mean you don't make your arrows with a saw and hammer?

I don't want them to remove it at all, just when you have to craft something on person 100x times, it should auto turn down a little bit.

I do and I never used a saw in crafting of arrows. Plus this is not real life, this is a game so your argument is invalid. But, it'd be nice for when crafting on person, you're able to turn down the sound.

I'd say just limit the sound so it doesn't overlap when crafting quick things, that way it will be less annoying.

I was being sarcastic because it plays a saw/hammer noise lol. Both of which would be impossible to make an arrow with.
Anything that is a "spammable" recipe such as arrows, sparkpowder/blackpowder, ammo/bullets, etc. needs to have it's crafting sound removable with an option ingame. I should not have to lose all other sounds ingame (which can help you spot incoming threats such as carnos, etc.) for the sake of not making my eardrums bleed whenever i craft a lot of stuff at the same time or in large amounts.

Plz devs!

+1, I hope the devs atleast give us the option to "Mute Crafting Sounds" or adjust their volume.

I make all my home made arrows with a jack hammer and duct tape.
