Troma Classic Warrior Sounds

1.2.5

Heroic Strike and replacement-audio recovery

• Added Midnight Heroic Strike (1269383) directly, without requiring legacy spell-name data.
• Limited replacement mutes to the supported specialization's dedicated ability audio; restored inherited shared weapon/spell effects and unsupported Revenge, Heroic Throw, and Die by the Sword sounds.
• Released CWS-owned mutes before loading screens and reapplied the configured mode on zone changes.
• Performed a one-time cleanup of known legacy CWS mutes on upgrade.
• If every audio layer of a confirmed cast fails, temporarily restore Retail sounds while continuing classic playback attempts. Automatically resume replacement after a fully accepted cast, without changing saved settings.
• Retained SFX volume routing and confirmed-success cast dispatch, with no sent-cast timers.
• Compared against Basically_Nixx's CWS 2.0: all 63 original audio files remain byte-identical. Added regression coverage for transitions, playback failures, recovery, and restricted-value guards.
• Classic playback remains enabled in arenas and battlegrounds. Tests use a simulated API; live Solo Shuffle playback has not been verified. Remaining file mutes are global and can affect other warriors using the same files.

1.2.4

Game-volume audio balance

• Changed the default custom-sound channel from Master to SFX so CWS follows the same Sound Effects volume as Retail abilities.
• Migrated existing Master-channel installations to SFX once, fixing excessively loud classic sounds without requiring a command.
• Preserved explicit channel choices made after the migration.
• Updated /cws test diagnostics to refer to the selected audio channel.

1.2.3

Single-sound replacement default

• Made Replace mode the default now that player casts use the reliable confirmed-cast path.
• Migrated existing 1.2.2 Safe-overlay installations once so Retail and classic ability sounds no longer play together.
• Kept /cws mode safe available as an explicit persistent choice.
• Preserved the Heroic Strike sound variants and tracked mute cleanup from 1.2.2.

1.2.2

Confirmed-cast reliability

• Removed the UNIT_SPELLCAST_SENT timer fallback completely; custom ability sounds now run only after UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED confirms the player's cast.
• Removed fabricated Bladestorm and Ravager tick timers, eliminating timer-generated ghost impacts after failed casts, cancellations, deaths, or loading screens.
• Split Bladestorm and Ravager handling so spell-name aliases cannot inherit the wrong behavior.
• Added a tracked mute lifecycle: CWS now restores only sounds it muted, repairs stale pre-1.2.2 mutes once, and always restores its mutes on logout.
• Kept all Heroic Strike variants explicitly audible in every mode.
• Made spell-name aliases recover automatically when Blizzard spell data is not ready during login.
• Added runtime regression tests for success-only dispatch, aliases, channel cleanup, mute recovery, and logout cleanup.

1.2.1

PvP audibility hotfix

• Added safe overlay mode as the default so a delayed or missing PvP spellcast event can no longer leave an ability completely silent.
• Moved custom sounds to the Master channel by default so they remain audible above combat effects.
• Explicitly restored the Heroic Strike sound variants that older releases could leave muted after /reload.
• Added Heroic Strike and name-based aliases for every tracked warrior ability so spell overrides keep their classic sound.
• Added a short, cancelable UNIT_SPELLCAST_SENT fallback for tracked instant abilities when UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED is delayed or omitted.
• Added persistent /cws mode safe|replace and /cws channel master|sfx|dialog settings.

1.2.0

Midnight 12.1 compatibility

• Updated the addon metadata for World of Warcraft 12.1.
• Migrated specialization and item lookups to the current Blizzard APIs.
• Updated warrior spell aliases for the current spellbook.
• Reworked Bladestorm and Ravager timing so their sounds no longer depend on removed combat-log events.
• Removed obsolete combat-text fallbacks that caused errors on modern clients.
• Hardened class detection, settings toggles, and slash-command handling.
• Added /cws test to verify sound playback in game.
