Change the 'Mutation Complete' sound so that it's the same as the BW 'Evolution Complete' sound.

I'm paranoid... IF I don't like this... I can just delete your files from the folder and everything will go back to normal? I'm more worried about performance related issues etc... and think the sounds are indeed the worst part of Sc2 vs Sc1.

Thank you so much for your work. Any answer would be appreciated, then I'm going to install this and see what happens.

Yes you can just delete it and it will go back to the normal sounds. It doesn't replace anything, SC2 just loads things in folders before things in MPQs

That's exactly what it sounded like.
Thanks Floor.
I play Terran so I'm guessing I have it the "best" as far as music and sounds go in SC2... I've messed with Zerg and Protoss and I can tell you... I can TOTALLY see a Zerg player going through all this work!!! lol

I should clarify, to go back to normal sounds delete the Sounds folders in your SC2 beta directory, nothing else. There's one in the Assets folder, Battle.net folder, and LocalizedData folder

Zelniq you are the man! I will install it as soon as I get home from work.

I hope Blizzard will implement this as an option for the release. Just going to options and check "use BW sounds" would be awesome.

Edit: Even though BW sounds = manly is right. The thread name could be more accurate so more people find this.

For Terran, not a HUGE difference, but still really good.
For Zerg, it changes the whole race.

This is like amazing. It' a pitty SC2 sounds aren't better, just too homoginized. For expample, the sound of the Roach isn't SO bad... as long as its with mostly SC1 sounds. But the Zerg announcer... changes the whole race. Makes me want to play Zerg (my orig race).

I don't hate it. I like the terran music, but the VAs did a really sub-par job. Zerg all sound the same. The Protoss executor or wtf he is that tells you to build pylons isn't as loud/serious as he used to be. In SC1 everything had a unique voice, a unique tone that made each unit easily distinguishable.
But it's also a personal preference. Having played this game on and off for 12 years, I can easily tell which sound belongs to which unit without looking at the screen. I know how they sound when they spawn, I know how they sound when they engage, I know how they sound when they die. The sounds help to feel familiar with the game.

it's not that they're all horrible, but after 12 years, you'd expect an increase in voice acting quality not some generic sounding shit. seriously, when i heard the ht and dt, i shed a tear. they just sound so badass in sc1, but in sc2 there's nothing about them that makes it stand out. also all the attack sounds are so fuckin pathetic now (ling, ultra, marine, seige tank, dt, archon). none of em have umph anymore
When they see MC Probe, all the ladies disrobe.

We were all spoiled by the fantastic voices of SC1. If SC2 was a stand alone game, no one would probably say anything, just some REALLY big shoes to fill.

The reason SC1 voices sound more "distinct" and "less generic" is partially just because they're lower quality sound files. Seriously. Certainly, the Zerg sounds are just plain...weird, but most of the Protoss and the Terran voice-overs are fine once you get over the change.

This seems like a cool little "mod," though; I might check it out...

Zerg's "We need more minerallslzzlzz" shit has been bugging me since the start of the beta. Definitely gonna give this a try.
