What this does

Set BGM to zero and adjust effects volume to focus on fishing cues. Casting and responding to bites remain manual.

How to use

Run in a safe location and check that bite cues remain audible. Afterwards, use /bgm and /soundeffects with the values you recorded to restore them.

Requirements

Record your previous BGM and effects volumes. 50 is an example; start low and adjust for your own audio equipment.

    Notes

    Changes all effects, not just fishing bites. Previous values are not saved or restored automatically. Check master volume and mute settings separately. Checked against official JP/EN documentation; not tested in-game.
