WIM Beeps

[DevTeam] [Zeke]: I love that I get emailed when someone reports spam on the boards, but I can't do anything about it.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: lol i got you
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: How about "hide email address from public checked" and it's still visible in all my posts...
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: I'd delete my account on this site, but by the time I realized the problem half the spambots on the planet had it already
[Developer] [Pazza]: Astaldo if you log out and view your profile with a refresh you'll see that your email is hidden.
[Developer] [Pazza]: Your user level on the forums permit you to see emails even though they are marked hidden.
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: Ah.. thanks for the clarification and apologies for "crying wolf" in that case :
[DevTeam] [Kaidenn]: PAZZA! i miss you.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: Lol, it's funny how it takes spam message reports to get me to come back
[DevTeam] [sylvanaar]: Check out the beta tester forum. Need alpha testers and feedback so I can come up with a maintenance plan.
[Developer] [Pazza]: loaded some new spam prevention modules... lets see if this stops the bastards.
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Thought I'd check in and say Howdy Doody from Australia
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Yeah the spam from shoes salesmen was becoming insane
[Guest] [Delakando]: What ever happened to the ability to track friend's location by wim? Other then just showing their general zone location.
Zeke pokes his head around the corner.
[DevTeam] [Zeke]: Anybody home?
[Guest] [Theillur]: I would like to know if it is just me.
[Guest] [Theillur]: http://www.wimaddon.com/forums/index.php/topic,1796.0.html

[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Zeke, Maziel, Pazza, Nachonut, sylvanaar, Kaidenn, Astaldo where are you?
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: It would be a real shame if WIM was left to die.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: i think these forums are dead, Sylvanaar dosnt post on them as he only bug fixes when possible. WIMs future isnt very bright
[Guest] [justgiz]: Yea, its rather sad.
[Guest] [silvercola]: I wish it had skype

[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: Ahhh memories
[Guest] [Ignis]: wtb update
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: soooo.....
Pazza starts to complain... Kinda reminds you of Sloans dont it?

[Christhesilent]

Is there no way to put the beep classified as something other than a sound effect?

There's times when I go AFK and put my sound on max to hear if people whisper me... but I don't want to hear some douchebag spamming /laugh across the house so...

Pretty please with sugar on top? I don't know what was different before, I saw you said you converted sound types to something else but is it possible to have them the way they were before and just.... not sound effects? Like.. ambience or something at least?

TL;DR.... can you make the WIM sounds not sound effects so I can turn this horrid clusterf--- of sounds off?

[Pazza]

I don't think i have the ability to play sounds as a different layer in the game. I will look though.

When i said I converted sound files i meant changed the file type. Blizzard decided it was no longer going to support wave and mp3 formats.

[Christhesilent]

I'd love you forever if you could...  I don't know what else could have changed to make that happen.

[Rumbah]

Another possibility would be to turn off the sound effects and let WIM turn on the sound if it has to play something and turn it back off afterwards if an addon can do that.
It's not as clean as you would hear other noises played while WIM activates sound, too, but I think it would get close enough (if it's much easier to implement).

[freegirl1716]

Thank you good share..

[Christhesilent]

Any update on this yet?

[Pazza]

I have to look into the ability to enable and disable the sound... I do not have to ability to select what channel the sound is played on. ie, music, sound effects. I think it comes in as a sound effect though. I'm really not sure.

As far as enabling/disabling sounds, I don't believe I have the ability to detect when a sound has finished playing... so it would always have to be a designated interval. 1 second for example.

Also, I need to see if i even have the ability to enable/disable sounds. We shall see...

[Pazza]

I added the option to force message sounds when game sounds are disabled. Hopefully this is what you wanted. Im pushing out an update shortly.

The little beep when you receive a whisper? Yes, that's it exactly. I love you.

4.0.1 has a bug, addons cannot play sounds if game sounds are turned off. blizz said they are gonna revert this change though after the qq they got on forums about it. until then just wait and use this addon fix: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/addon-sound.aspx

This looks to be correct. The force option doesn't seem to be working, just tested it.

Tried the addon you linked and it does work fairly well so far. I don't hear the beep but at least I only get like one second of sound.... better than nothing till that's fixed.
