So a couple of months ago I watched Dremlock's 4th PvP movie "Dremlock 4: The Killing of Dunemaul".

For those of you who want to check it out: http://www.warcraftmovies.com/movieview.php?id=124291


For much of the movie, Dremlock syncs a soundclip from Streetfighter with his Lava Burst casts so that whenever he casts Lava Burst you can hear "Hadouken!".
Basically, I thought this was awesome.

I'd like to request a lightweight addon that simply plays that sound whenever the Shaman casts Lava Burst. I've searched and don't think it exists yet. Obviously this is groundbreaking stuff...
Anyone else think this would be cool?

Woot! what a fantastic video!

That is some of the best shaman pvp i have seen in a long, long time, also one of the most ingeniously edited warcraft movies ever!

I play a shaman, but enhance, but i think if there were a lava burst/hadouken addon it would definatley push me over the edge and i would go ele! 

I don't know the first thing about building an addon, but i can't imagine it would be to difficult to assign a soundbite from the street fighter soundtrack to the use of an ability. Who is up for the challenege!

Yeah I figured it can't be too tricky to make this kind of addon. If I had any clue how to make something like this I would.
I guess this could even just be a feature included in other Shaman addons, rather than being it's own free standing mod.

I'm sure if more people saw the video, this would be top of the to-do list for addon authors!

Wait Its not a mod yet!? This needs to happen that and one for thunderstorm except maybe a clip of idk thunderstruck by acdc

Someone over on the Shaman forums helped me out with this.

You need to download an addon called "Aftercast" which you can find here.
Essentially this addon allows you to create macros which will perform an action after you cast a spell. There are a few modifiers you can use too so you can make the action occur at other events in a spell cast, such as when you start casting or when the cast is interrupted.

Now you need to find the sound file you want and save it in your addons folder. I used Firefox download helper and file converter addons to download this video from youtube. Then I opened it in Windows Movie Maker and dropped it onto the audio track and cut it down to just the "Hadouken!" bit. I saved this sound clip in my addons folder as a WMA file.

In game you can now make a macro which should look something like this:
/ac /script PlaySoundFile("Interface\\Addons\\YOURFILE.WMA")
/cast Lava Burst (Rank X)

If for example you saved your soundfile as mp3, you will need to replace ".WMA" with ".mp3". The part after PlaySoundFile is essentially the file location. Remember to save th file in your addons folder though or it wont work.


This has been working pretty well for me so far, but sometimes it fails to go off on lava burst cast and will go off on whatever spell I cast next instead.

If you need any more information, this is the thread over on the World of Warcraft forums I started which helped me.
