FixSoundCvars

What is this addon for?

This is a lightweight utility script designed to override and lock specific hidden sound settings (CVars) in World of Warcraft. Every time you log in or change zones, the addon automatically enforces your preferred audio configuration to ensure peak performance and sound clarity.

Key Features:

• Optimizes Audio Channels: Sets the sound channels to 32, which reduces CPU overhead for sound processing—ideal for older systems or maximizing FPS during intense combat.
• Memory Management: Limits the sound cache to 64MB, preventing the game from using unnecessary RAM for audio files.
• Audio Clarity (Filters): Disables the Positional Low Pass Filter, ensuring sounds remain crisp even when the source is behind your character or an object.
• Removes Echo: Disables Reverb, removing the hollow echo effect typically heard in caves or large indoor halls for a more consistent "dry" audio experience.

How it works:

The addon listens for the PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD event. As soon as your loading screen finishes, it silently runs the commands and displays a brief confirmation message in your chat frame. Once the settings are applied, the script puts itself to sleep to consume zero resources while you play.
