AudioAlert Has No Visible Effects
AudioAlert


AudioAlert vocalizes sound messages if spell cooldowns are elapsed or if you gain buffs or debuffs.
Example: If you cast the spell "Fear Ward", then AudioAlert says "Fear Ward Ready" if Fear Ward is ready again.

Configuration
To select the monitored spells/buffs open the AudioAlert options (via the Blizzard interface settings), click on "Watchlist" and click on each spell/buff in the list.
Spells shown in green are monitored, spells shown in red are not (as default nothing is monitored)


[NEW] AudioAlert additional voicesImportant note: To use these voices AudioAlert 1.1.7 or higher is required.


Frequently Asked Questions

The voice is artificially and unaesthetic. I want additional/more melodic voices.
The voice is recorded with the Windows text-to-speech engine. In fact it's artificially. I can't provide the time and the resources to record "real" voices or additional voices by myself.

This is where you come into play. YOU could record your own voice(s) and I'll add the sound files to AudioAlert.

This is how you record you personal voice:
  1. Get the complete list of AudioAlert sounds.
  2. Record your own sound file with all these spell names. You don't have to create a separate file for every spell. It's enough to create one large file with all spell names in a row.
    You could use the Windows Audio Recorder (Start>Programs>Accessories>Multimedia) or any other recording software. (eg. Wavosaur which is for free and very small).
  3. Notes:
    • Don't change the list's sort!. You must record the sound file corresponding to the lists order.
    • You must record all spell names.
    • Please leave a gap of silence between each pronounced spell name of approx. 1 second.
    • The sound file must be wav or mp3 format.
    • Speak as clear and distinct as you can.
    • You are free to choose your own recording quality. But I recommend to use 16 bit/ 44 kHz.
  4. Upload your sound file and provide me the download link. (Please don't forget to zip your file.) Please send me a note in which language the sound file is recorded. (If the language isn't English)


Want Additional Spells/Buffs/etc to monitor?
I could add any of the following elements to the watchlist:
  • spell cooldowns
  • buffs
  • debuff
  • procs
  • item cooldowns
But I need your support for that. If you want me to add something, then you must provide me the spell ID or item ID for all spells or items you would like to see. I'll do my best to add it as soon as possible.
Caution: The spell ID is unique for every spell rank. Example: the spell ID of "Holy Fire (Rank 1) isn't equal to the spell ID of "Holy Fire (Rank 2)". If you want me to add "Holy Fire" I need the spell IDs for all ranks!


How do I find a spell id?
Casting the spell ingame
  • Enable the AudioAlert option "Show Spell/Proc/Buff Names And IDs" (tab "Global")
  • Cast the spell or wait for the proc/buff
  • The spell/proc/buff name and id is shown in your default chat frame
Notes:
  • Don't forget to cast and provide all spell ranks!
  • Sometimes there are additional spells. If you want me to add them, you have to
    provide these spell ids too.
    Examples:
    "Improved Psychic Scream" is not the same as "Psychic Scream".
    The proc of "Improved Holy Concentration" is "Improved Holy Concentration", which is not
    the same as the proc of "Holy Concentration" ("Clearcasting")!
Manual search
For spells:
  • Open http://www.wowhead.com/
  • Type the spell name into the seach box (topright corner) and start the search
  • Switch to the "Abilities" tab
  • Click on spell by spell (all ranks!) jot down the url for the spell.
  • The spell url ends with "/?spell=xxxxx". The number ("xxxxx") is the spell id.
Example:
  • Search for "Psychic Scream".
  • The "Abilities" tab shows 6 spells (http://www.wowhead.com/?search=Psychic+Scream#abilities)
  • The url for "Psychic Scream Rank 1" is http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=8122 ... so the spell id is 8122.
Notes:
Sometimes there are additional spells. If you want me to add them, you have to
provide these spell ids too.
Example: "Improved Psychic Scream" is not the same as "Psychic Scream".
For procs:
  • Open http://www.wowhead.com/
  • Type the spell or ability name into the seach box (topright corner) and start the search
  • Switch to the "Abilities" tab
  • Click on the spell or abilitiy.
  • See the row "Effects" in the "Spell Details" table. This is the proc or buff.
    It's not the same as the ability itself. (In a lot of cases it has a different name).
  • Click on the (proc) spell. The (proc) spell url ends with "/?spell=xxxxx".
    The number ("xxxxx") is the (proc) spell id.
Example:
  • Search for "Holy Concentration".
  • The "Abilities" tab shows 6 spells (http://www.wowhead.com/?search=Holy+Concentration#abilities)
  • Click on the first one (Rank doesn't matter ... at least not, if the proc is the same
    for all ranks)
  • "Effect" states "Apply Aura: Proc Trigger Spell Clearcasting". Click on "Clearcasting"
  • The url for "Clearcasting" is http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=34754. The (proc) spell id is 34754.
Notes:
Again sometimes there are there are different or additional spells. If you want me to add them,
you have to provide these spell ids too.
Example: The proc of "Improved Holy Concentration" is "Improved Holy Concentration", which is not
the same as the proc of "Holy Concentration" ("Clearcasting")!


Want other output languages?
At the moment the only output language to vocalize audio messages is English. I could add the following output languages:
  • Italian
  • French
  • German
  • Spanish
  • Korean
  • Russian
But beside the time to do it (it's A LOT of work) I need help for that. To add a new output language I need the exact spell/buff/whatever names for all current watchlist-elements in the new language. I also need some support for the target language (I don't speak Russion *g*).
If you are willing to help with that please do the following steps:
  1. Run a script command:
    Code:
    /script AudioAlertQuerySpells()
    Warning: this could lock your client for several seconds!)
  2. Logout
  3. Send my the saved variables file via PM or upload it:
    Code:
    ..\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\<ACCOUNTNAME>\<Servername>\<Charactername>\SavedVariables\AudioAlert.lua
    Note: Please compress the file (zip, rar, whatever). The unzipped file has a size of 5 MB.
Why are some spells/buffs shown twice or more times in the watchlist?
There are spells that are available in multiple different versions. Example: the shaman's "Chain Heal" is also use by some mobs. The mob's "Chain Heal" has the same name but a different spell ID.
I can't and don't want to find out which spell ID is the players spell for all of them. It's just too much work. Due to this I decided for the initial version of this addon to add all spells names to the list. (In case of multiple spells with the same name)

V.Speak "This is a test!"
The voices are from Cepstral and other commercial providers.


That's the problem. I'll fix that asap.


Sure. I'll do that asap too.

Sound Recording
Thanks for the- addon, Duugu. I haven't missed a Missile Barrage proc since I installed it.

Bit of a side question - what resource are you using to produce the sounds? Is it available online? I'm using PowerAuras for raid-type warnings that are beyond the intentions of this addon, and would really like to record some pleasant-sounding alerts.

Thanks much.

Penance
Spell Cast: Penance(Rank4) (ID:53007)
Spell Cast: Penance(Rank4) (ID:53007)
Spell Cast: Penance(Rank4) (ID:53007)
Spell Cast: Penance(Rank4) (ID:53007)

Penance prints that out 4 times just like above, thing is Penance only has three pulses of healing (or damage).....so that probably it?

and also just tried this:
let Penance do one pulse and then interrupted the spell and the voice work correctly.

I can't test Penance by myself. Does casting Penance apply a buff?

Could you please enable the option "Show Spell/Proc/Buff Names And IDs" (tab "Global") and cast Penance?
Then please provide me the results shown in your default chat frame.

Thank you

Everytime I cast a spell that activates AudioAlert, I get this spam in my primary chat box that says "Interface\Addons\AudioAlert\sounds\enUSSound1\"file name" (i.e. ready.mp3, surge of light.mp3, etc)

How do I get it to stop doing this?

Love the mod, but cant handle the chat spam!

thanks in advance
