Text Warning Sound

Recommended Posts

Under audio options. the text warning sound doesn't affect text warning sound, but rather misc client volume affects the volume of warning soung loudness. Setting text warning volume to 0 and misc client to 1, I heard it loudly. Vice versa, I hear nothing.

you forgot to modify "client" with "warnings" type in the sound_client.xml

Another bug : When multiple events happen , then the last event extinguishes the previous events (no sound is played) . It would also be nice if I could more easily define my own sounds. I don't want to mess with the existing xml files.

After opening and reading snds_client.xml and sound_config.xml I still don't understand understand your instructions and still have the wrong volume controller controlling the volume of my text warnings.

 

Edit - latest client version on Ubuntu 12.04

If you open sound/snds_client.xml with a text editor (notepad or so, not with MS-Word or similar...)

you'll see blocks like:

<sound name = "alert1">
    <variant>
        <main_sound>sound/inventory02.ogg</main_sound>
    </variant>
    <distance>35</distance>
    <priority>3</priority>
    <type>client</type>
</sound>

You'll have to change the <type> lines from <type>client</type> to <type>warnings</type>

for each of the alerts and save the file again.Then either disable sound and re-enable, or restart the client.

I bumb this bug a bit as the new client is probably comming soon.

It would be nice if the enterances that start in the way

<sound name = "alert?">

have <type>warnings</type> instead <type>client</type>

The snds_client.xml file is part of the sounds archive file. The sounds and music archives are not normally included with a new client release.

Thanks, Sir_Odie!

I think this change will make alert handling much more intuitive :-)

(especially for those downloading and playing with the sound package for the first time)
