Sound
What does the ambience sound like? Anyone have a file? If so, please upload. --Danny Ufonek 20:46, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 * We can't upload sound files, but if enough people request it, maybe we could. MoonBeans 16:35, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
 * If you didn't already notice, at the bottom of the page is a link to an ambient sound player web page, where you can listen to these sounds. --TheKax 11:12, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Go into your resources file in your minecraft folder and then go to newsound, click on ambient then cave. Hope that helps! 11:12, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Disabling
Is it possible to make the ambience sound lower?? --Lank 09:02, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The cave ambience this article refers to can be found at C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\resources\newsound\ambient\cave (Windows Vista+, on XP replace "Users" with "Documents and Settings") --Gnu32 09:42, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks --Lank 10:54, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

im having the same problem. every time i try to get rid of them they just redownload and if i get rid of them while playing my client crashes every few minutes. is there any way to make them unplayable or something?Ecreme 18:22, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I think if you make the files read-only, Minecraft will be unable to replace them. Not certain though. Alphap 15:05, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

ive set them as read only but it still plays. when i checked the read only box was still checked but its playing. how do i get rid of it??Ecreme 01:00, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Replace them with empty sounds and then read-only them. Read-only does not prevent minecraft from playing them, only re-downloading them (use of common sense is allowed)! [[Image:TK.gif]]  | TheKax |   Talk   16:15, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Randomly heard ambience
This happen a lot, it's day, you wander around, and then some kind of demoniac sound plays out of nowhere, that generally scare the fuck out of me

After exploring a bit i generally find a cave entrance

I added it, if this happen to you to wander around and hear randomly cave ambience, you are on a cave, search around a bit and you will find an entrance (generally, when you can hear it at surface, the cave extends to the surface)

Nether?
Can Ambience be heard in the Nether? I haven't heard any whilst exploring it, so is it completely disabled there, it doesn't even have a chance to appear there due to the Nether having different lighting, not so common caves, or is it because of a completely different reason? --Danny Ufonek 19:50, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Ambiance exists, but is rare. Calinou 19:58, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

I've heard Ambiance twice in the nether. - Teh_Bucket

Cloud level
I thought that since 1.8, just under cloud level is the highest level you can place a block. I was just wondering if the article at the front should be changed.

Mysterious cave noise?
I walked around today in a cave, and i heard a sound that i didn't recognize. It was a loud, "slapping" sound, like a paper that is blowing around. Do you guys know if C148 have did any new sound?

That is probably a slime. They are relatively rare, as they spawn only at the lowest depths and only in certain chunks. —KPReid 16:00, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Disable ambience
Is it possible to disable ambience BUT NOT sound Dager4 22:03, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Try overwriting the sounds with a blank sound file, Remember to mark them as "Read Only". --Mathew9R 13:26, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
