Sound Is No Longer Supported by the Toon Council

Posted by Sir Max on April 1, 2019 at 4:00 PM

Toons of the world -- I'm here to bring you some important news from the Toon Council. Have you ever been taking a nap in Dreamland, just to be woken up by an AHOOOOGA howling into the night? Have you ever had your sound on just a little too loud when your friend decides to use an Opera Singer? Do you ever inexplicably end up in bizarre, almost conveniently written for entertainment situations? If you're like me, all of these things and more have happened to you. That's why the Toon Council is officially ending support for the sound gag track.

Sir Max holds some sound gags, ready to be crushed when Toon HQ rises into the sky.

In addition to the noise complaints in Donald's Dreamland and the rising cost of Fog Horns, Loony Labs studies have shown that the sound gag track has become detrimental to Toontown. Don't believe me? I've got one of the finest Scientoons in all of Toontown here to provide his insight into the effects of sound gags all across Toontown. Take it away, Doctor Dimm!

"Hello, my name is Doctor Dlimm! Is that supposed to say Dimm? Aha, yes, I am Doctor Dimm! My pay-ten-ted ree-search...says that sound gags can cause serious damage to Toon health. This is because of... 'improvise a big word here.' Say, Sir Max, Did you want me to fill in something right there? Alright, let's start over. This is because of... Uh... 'Divisionagonal-ducktosis.' Caused by sound waves. Now, how much longer do you want me to read from this script, Sir Max?"

Oh, never mind him. The sound waves must have given him a case of divisionagonal-ducktosis, too! Anyway, starting next week, Gag Shops will no longer be selling sound gags. The "Sound" tab of the Options Panel will also be removed, just for good measure. 

Until then, Toon Troopers will be patrolling Donald's Dreamland to make sure that these sounds no longer disrupt anymore of my -- uh, our -- naps.

April 1, 2019 [ttr-live-v4.1.19]

General
• Engine Downgrade! In order to restore all of the nostalgic bugs that we all love so dearly, Toontown Rewritten now uses its original build of Panda3D from 2002.

Playgrounds
• Removed Acorn Acres, as it was found to be too confusing for new players looking for Bossbot Headquarters.
• Bossbot Headquarters now features MiniGolf, Fishing Docks, and an Oil Geyser.
• Informed every resident of Oak Street that there is, in fact, a Cog Headquarters just a few steps away.

Battle
• Removed sound gags from Toontown.

Audio
• Disabled all game sound, just to make sure that the sound gags are gone for good.

Happy April Toons Week, Toontown!

Looks like the soundless will start to take over Toontown, or possibly, THE WORLD.

Jake Cheesey Marble said on April 1, 2019 at 4:11 PM
Woohoo! Great choice! Now lets go defeat some cogs!

cool electroberry said on April 1, 2019 at 4:11 PM
I was like wat until I looked at the date XD

Skentched said on April 1, 2019 at 4:11 PM
What the heck, I love sound gags!! This has to be some form of joke! Not epic!!

Soundless Jake said on April 1, 2019 at 4:12 PM
Definitely an improvement! Thanks, Toontown team!!!

Fat Horse said on April 1, 2019 at 4:13 PM
This is a huge improvement, thanks for removing sound!

Doctor Frazzlegabber said on April 1, 2019 at 4:17 PM
I knew I should have gone soundless...

Violin said on April 1, 2019 at 4:17 PM
Ah, goodbye sound forever. Certainly not April Fool’s or anything.

Smarty said on April 1, 2019 at 4:23 PM
I dunno if this is a joke or not, but I don't hate it. It would be nice not to rely on sound all the time.

Stanley said on April 1, 2019 at 4:26 PM
as a soundless this pleases me

Squeakity said on April 1, 2019 at 4:41 PM
looks like i should use drop then

Paige said on April 1, 2019 at 4:42 PM
Hahaha nice try guys.

Miffy Mumpkins said on April 1, 2019 at 4:43 PM
The soundless toons have won. XD This is going to be interesting.

Flare said on April 1, 2019 at 4:47 PM
Oh no! What's my 5th track gonna be now?!

White Castle Is Good said on April 1, 2019 at 4:53 PM
I would like to say thank you for removing those pesky sound gags. They have cause nothing but complaints due to their loud and obnoxious sounds. Being able to freely walk around toontown without worrying about those toons with the sound gags is surly a treat to the rest of us soundless toons. As for the toons who previously owned those useless gags, welcome to the soundless club!

Antoine said on April 1, 2019 at 4:55 PM
Probably the best thing that you guys could have done, congrats !!!!

Peaches Sparklepop said on April 1, 2019 at 4:57 PM
PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS APRIL FOOLS

Robo Dog said on April 1, 2019 at 4:59 PM
Finally, now that sound is removed I can finally walk around in silence

Comet Funnypop said on April 1, 2019 at 5:02 PM
Honestly, it was about time that Sound gags are gone for good. Sure they may have proven time and time again that they're extremely useful in battle but they're just too loud. I mean seriously, I just want to spread the joy of Opera, while also not bursting my ear drums in the process. This change will certainly help m- I mean us, sleep better at night.

Silly RoRo said on April 1, 2019 at 5:06 PM
Is this an April fools joke?

C.J. McWhatsit said on April 1, 2019 at 5:09 PM
That's great.. but how are we gonna sleep through the crazy transformations today? Oh wait, we're toons. We can sleep through almost anything.

princess mandy said on April 1, 2019 at 5:14 PM
soooo.. is this just for april toons week and then the sound comes back? or is this soundless update forever?

Roxy Wonderhopper said on April 1, 2019 at 5:15 PM
Please say this is an April fools joke ??

princess ruby supertoon said on April 1, 2019 at 5:16 PM
Is this update forever?

Periwinkle said on April 1, 2019 at 5:31 PM
these updates HAVE to be because of April Fools, right? RIGHT!??!?! XD

Dark Wacko said on April 1, 2019 at 5:33 PM
Now you toons are on our level. I hate sound it wakes me up when I am sleeping. (April fools) GOSH DARN IT!

Yolanda said on April 1, 2019 at 5:52 PM
Please tell me this is a joke!

The awesome cat and dog said on April 1, 2019 at 5:53 PM
OK i have a confession, i DID want sound gone but not FOREVER i just wanted it to be temporarily because it makes toons get used to no sound gags but I think doing it all at once is a lot toontown, so maybe this BIG thing can happen a tiny bit later?

Penny said on April 1, 2019 at 5:53 PM
I love all the toons who think this isn't real xD Regardless, thank you Toontown for getting rid of those noisy sound gags, removing Acorn Acres, disabling game sound entirely, and downgrading game engines. I think this will really bring us closer as a community.... april fools is a great day, isn't it?

gumdroptooth said on April 1, 2019 at 5:54 PM
Let's all remember sound r.i.p 2003-2019

Gold Mouse Cool Toon said on April 1, 2019 at 6:11 PM

Joe said on April 1, 2019 at 7:48 PM

Quack said on April 1, 2019 at 11:38 PM

Tom Dizzytwist said on April 2, 2019 at 1:35 AM

Chip said on April 2, 2019 at 2:02 AM

DjAwesomness said on April 2, 2019 at 9:07 AM
does that mean we would have to pick another track if we are not soundless, if so then I won't be a toon-up less toon and only a soundless toon.

Princess Bella Preciousparkles said on April 2, 2019 at 1:30 PM

Skip said on April 2, 2019 at 1:40 PM
Hey. Just be glad that removing sound, Smirky Bumberpop will now fit in with the other toons.

Prof. Apple Pie said on April 2, 2019 at 2:48 PM
What will happen for those of us who have chosen the sound track and have leveled it up? Will we be getting drop of the same level? Or will we be left to go back and earn drop through more toontasks?

Unidentified Growling Object said on April 2, 2019 at 2:55 PM
Honestly if we had a day that everyone is soundless.. it would be awesome!!

epic fortniteburger said on April 2, 2019 at 3:54 PM

Bubbles (PowerPuff) said on April 4, 2019 at 12:15 PM

Rainbow said on April 5, 2019 at 10:37 AM
Removing sound from Toontown!?!?? That is not epic to me or anyone that has maxed sound out. I worked hard on sound gags so what is the point of toontown without sound?

Awesomerockstar said on April 5, 2019 at 2:39 PM
Guess choosing the final gag will be easier now that it all fits together perfectly!, *Achooooga* sorry, well, I like whats being done for all those shopkeepers who need their rest. The work force needs their rest tto.

Mouser said on April 5, 2019 at 3:03 PM
i want sound gags XD please

ladystarr said on April 5, 2019 at 5:00 PM
I don't like the sound being taken away! all I can say about that!

Cool Cat said on April 5, 2019 at 6:45 PM
pfft, I don't need sound anyway... Okay, maybe I do.

Cupcake Princess said on April 6, 2019 at 1:38 AM
