dark_wizzie1 Report post Posted March 19, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mythos Report post Posted March 28, 2013 you forgot to modify "client" with "warnings" type in the sound_client.xml Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SolarStar Report post Posted April 1, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
extrapolation Report post Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) you forgot to modify "client" with "warnings" type in the sound_client.xml 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 Edited January 14, 2014 by extrapolation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
revi Report post Posted January 14, 2014 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.

extrapolation Report post Posted January 14, 2014 Thank you for the clearer instructions revi. Is it a deliberate feature that you have to modify config files like this before the client will actually do what it claims it does? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vinoveritas Report post Posted January 24, 2014 It is in my opeinion a bug that the snd_client.xml has not the right type set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vinoveritas Report post Posted March 14, 2015 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> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluap Report post Posted March 24, 2015 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vinoveritas Report post Posted March 27, 2015 still would be good to change it at some point as i had to tell lots of people how to do it in the past Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir_Odie Report post Posted March 27, 2015 I changed the snds_client.xml in the official sounds-package. The alerts have now the type 'warnings'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gwaew Report post Posted April 1, 2015 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) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
