GenericBeep=BEEP1 ; a sound ID registered in SOUND.INI

The sound options dialog plays this sound each time one of its three volume sliders changes level, so the new level can be heard. Each slider has its own condition:

  • Music volume. The sound plays, scaled by the new music volume, only while no music track is playing.
  • Sound effects volume. The sound plays at every change of level.
  • Speech volume. Outside a game, the sound plays, scaled by the new speech volume. During a game, moving the slider speaks a random GDI or Nod taunt instead, and only when no other speech is playing.
