🔇 Crescendo

Annoyed by the PHUUOOOOOOOOOOOM sound the League client makes after you've accepted a queue? Wish it'd just shut up until you loaded into champion select? Crescendo runs in the background and will automatically mute your League when you've accepted or declined the ready check.

Setup

Requirements

• This is an application for League of Legends, so ensure you have the League Client installed first.

Installation

1. To download, click the Releases link on the right to download the latest version.
   • If you are a Windows User, a message may show up that prevents Crescendo from running. To bypass this, click on More Info > Allow anyway
2. To launch League with Crescendo, simply open League how you normally would. Crescendo will run in the background.

FAQ

Is this approved by Riot?
Cresendo conforms to both the general Riot Developer policies and the League Client development policies, and it is registered on Riot's developer portal. While this doesn't mean that Riot explicitly approves the application or supports it in any way, it makes it increasingly unlikely that using this application will risk your account. This comment by RiotSargonas explains more about Riot's approach to applications like this one.

How do I uninstall?
Since Crescendo doesn't actually install anything, removing it is as simple as deleting the file from your Downloads folder!

Wow this is amazing! Do you have any other cool programs?
shameless plug start
As a matter of fact I do! I created Mimic, which is a client on your mobile phone. I also created Deceive, which allows you to appear offline to all your friends. Finally, I created Sentinel, which gives you proper desktop notifications when you receive a new message or invite on League.

crescendo's Issues

VolumeControl is null

In getVolumeObject, it cannot find the pid associated with league in the list, so it never goes inside the if (cpid == pid) loop.
So volumeControl variable stays null whatever happens.
That makes impossible for VolumeMixer.GetApplicationMute(league.UXPid) to have the Value.
Since the volumeControl variable is also used by the SetApplicationMute function, that makes it impossible to mute it even if we bypass the previous step.
