• Converts sounds from Mute Annoying WoW Sounds to FileDataIDs.
• See MuteAnnoying for the WoW addon.

Getting FileDataIDs from your Sound\ folder (Windows)

1. muteannoyingwowsounds.lua: Run the PowerShell script from 1 level above your Sound\ folder.

   • Turn the results into a Lua table.
     (.*) → \t"$1",
     Replace \ backslashes with / forward slashes (so that it matches the listfile).

2. (optional) listfile.lua: Download the listfile from wow.tools.

   • Filter it to .ogg sounds only and turn it into a Lua table.
     ^(?!.*\.ogg.*).+$\n → (empty) stackoverflow
     .*\.meta\n → (empty)

3. Run main.lua (Lua 5.2+)

• Output:
  • MuteAnnoying.lua: Example addon with FDIDs (and unused sound path).
  • missing.lua: Sound paths that failed to match a FDID.
  • MuteSoundFile_soundList.lua: FDIDs you can paste into MuteSoundFile's savedvariables.

Note: I'm a novice with this stuff myself as you can see 😋
