Playing mp3's

[Consilium]

Not sure if this belongs here but this is some code to play mp3's...
All credit goes to Alisandra.

Code: Select all

sub InitSounds 
  /mp3 clear 

  | Jungle-Windows-Start.wav -- 5 seconds 
  /mp3 add x:\Sounds\Alert.wav 

  | -- 3 seconds 
  /mp3 add x:\Sounds\Danger.wav 

  | Musica-Asterisk.wav -- 1.5 seconds 
  /mp3 add x:\Sounds\Message.wav 

  | Utopia-Asterisk.wav -- 2 seconds? 
  /mp3 add x:\Sounds\Utopia-Asterisk.wav 
    
  /return 


sub PlaySound 
  /if @Param0=="Tell" { 
    /mp3 play 3 
    /delay 15 
    /mp3 stop 
  } else /if @Param0=="Tell2" { 
    /mp3 play 4 
    /delay 2s 
    /mp3 stop 
  } else /if @Param0=="Alert" { 
    /mp3 play 1 
    /delay 5s 
    /mp3 stop 
  } else /if @Param0=="Danger" { 
    /mp3 play 2 
    /delay 3s 
    /mp3 stop 
  } 
  
  /return

Good idea! But if Macroquest had a beep any HUMAN could hear...
lol
the beep is enough to drive dogs nuts, but needs a VOLUME!

Well that is true that the beep is a bit lame. This is just a system beep which like your bios error beeps uses your standard internal motherboard speaker.

It would be great if someone would detail here about how to change this beep or reroute it to your sound card. I know this can be done but I unfortunatly haven't researched it yet.

I like running several instances of MQ on one computer and to enable sound for each one for the playing of mp3 alerts isn't practical when it comes to system performance.

Anyone familiar with this?
