About Chat Alert!

  • Very simple AddOn that plays a sound when you have incoming text from tell, guild, guild officer, warbands and other important texts. Each type of text has it's own sound so you will learn just by the alert-sound where the message is from.
  • Requirements
NOTE:This AddOn requires LibSlash. http://www.curse.com/downloads/detail.../13510/
  • Command line options
/ca toggle [CHANNEL] - Will toggle the alert for this channel.
/ca sound [CHANNEL] [soundID] - set sound played for CHANNEL to soundID
/ca play [soundID] - test soundID sound.
/ca slist - list sound IDs Mythic has available.
/ca channels - Will list all channels that generate alerts.
  • Channels that can be toggled.

    I can't toggle channels. I get an error message [string "Interface/AddOns\ChatAlert\ChatAlert/lua"]:14: attempt to index global 'ChatWindow' (a nil value)

    Upgrade libslash and Chat Alert! and the problem will vanish.

    Actually I meant more along the lines of allowing me to use .wav files or .mp3 files for "custom" sounds.

    I'll see about adding a option to alter the sounds but right now most people don't know how to get a list of all the ingame sound values to use so I didn't see much use.

    Options would be much appreciated, when you find the time/impetus/energy. This is a great addon but in a busy guild, the constant BONGGGGGG is getting a little old. :D

    Love this mod! Hopefully Mythic incorporates it into the default UI and gives you credit. :)

  • #5

    If mythic would just give us the ability to use custom sounds for these things I'd be happy ;)

    Actually you can change the sounds on this addon, but only to WAR in-game sounds. Just open the ChatAlert.lua with notepad, and scroll all the way down to the bottom. There you will find the sounds. "TELL_RECEIVE" has the sound (219) or "SHOUT" has (1106). I changed the GROUP sound to (1111) because i had problems hearing any sounds. Btw, if you do not want any sound at all, you can use (1000). To be able to test the sounds, I made a "reload UI" macro (/reload) and a "shout" macro (/shout [any message here]. I was then able to listen very quickly just by editing the "shout" sound (1106) in ChatAlert.lua, then save it and use my two macros in-game. Not sure if this is legal to do, but for me it was the choice of editing the sounds or not using the addon at all. Maybe the author can make in-game commands to change sounds in the future. Thank you for this great addon Celestion.

    Is there a way to disable some sounds? I like some, others I don't want to hear.

  • #2

    Right now there are no options to do so. I will see about getting those options in after the game has went retail for a week or so.
