Turning off sound on an ability.

We are talking about Breath of Fire ability here 'ACbc'
It has a "whoosh" like sound when you cast it.

Now I want to turn off that sound, but there are no options for that in object editor, any ideas?

You could import a blank sound file to replace the sound, but then any normal Breath of Fire abilities won't play the sound either.

It will suffice, thx.

It's probably cheaper on filesize to re-import the effect without the sound event object on it.

I think that a blank sound is very small.

Wait are you saying that sounds are inside mdx files or there is simply a path to sound inside mdx file?

Models contain things called "EventObjects", which have an attached code and a set of keyframes -- each time a keyframe is hit, the object will fire and produce whatever its code is associated with; whether it's a sound, a spawn model...

So yes, the solution is either the blank sound or the model sans EventObject.

Unless warcraft needs the headers for the wave files, I would assume creating a 0kb .wav file would be smaller than the edited model.

Yes, as RDZ explained above, if an MDX plays a sound then it must be done by an eventobject within the MDX file. These can be removed fairly easily via any number of programs or just direct mdl editing.
I was under the impression they did, but I very well may be wrong, hence the probably keyword in my last post.
