I've tried several addons regarding this matter, most of us had the same ideas for Death Grip.
Since some appeared after I tried them, I grew tired of having all the addons using /yell or /say and not a single one had the possibility to turn it off.
So I started to make my own, while during that process, I started to think why only Death Grip? So here's the result of that idea.
You can type /DKSounds or /DKS for options, or you can open menu in-game, select Interface and Addons tab and you will see what you can enable / disable.
So you can have the messages (this checkbox it's for all messages), if you like it, or disable it.
Since I have more abilities you can enable / disable the sound for each one, so you have:
Death Grip: "Come Here!" and "Get Over Here!" - Scorpion MK (2 sounds - Random) Rune Strike (proc): "Frostmourne Hungers." - Arthas WC3 Strangulate: "I find your lack of faith disturbing" - Darth Vader Raise Dead: "For the Lich King!" - Arthas WC3 Blood Boil: "Your pain will be Legendary!" - Arthas WC3 Blood Strike: "You will know endless torment!" - Arthas WC3 Scourge / Frost / Heart Strike: "Glory to the Scourge!" - Arthas WC3 Obliterate: "NOW Frostmourne!" - Arthas WC3 Pestilence: "I will make sure, you suffer!" - Arthas WC3 Summon Gargoyle: "Summoning is complete!" - Acolyte WC3 Horn of Winter: "The Lich King has given me true power!" - Arthas WC3 Unholy Blight: "/emote *Frostmourne chants*" - Frostmourne Chants WC3 Death Knight Mounts: "I'm the One Horsemen of the Apocalypse!" - DK WC3 Cannibalize (for Undead DK): "Me eat dead people!" and "Me eat brains" - Ghoul WC3 (2 sounds - Random) Shadow of Death: "The damned return!" - Necromancer WC3 (I don't recall if it's not Necromancer it's from Hero Lich)
I'm planning more additions to the future (Icy Touch, Plague Strike, etc)
FEEDBACK: I'm Unholy spec, so I need feedback regarding Frost and Heart Strike.
Also I turned up the volume on most of WC3 Sounds, so I think would be more pleasant, anyway tell me what you think, thanks.
QUICK NOTE: Delete always previous DK_Sounds folder from your "Addons" folder at this stage, since files could change, on this version (>=0.7b3) i changed the remain WAV to MP3, so you're going to have files that are no longer needed
UPDATE (2008.12.04):I received feedback from Winged Steed and it's not working and I know the reason of the problem (I had strip gold from others chars to buy the mount and test this, since I started the coding of the addon, didn't have much time to quest so my DK is still 70) the ID I put on the addon apparently it's a link to the object, it's not treated as spell it's link to physical school, the event don't even appear on Combat Log, not even the aura , so I hope I can make a detection on Mounted ID Aura 29582, hopefully it's only used for this mount. I will try to track this "bug" down.
THIS IS STILL A BETA VERSION.
Change Log - DK Sounds
0.7b3 Change Log:
- Now 'All sounds' it's really fixed (last fix caused another bug on 2 spells);
- Also Enable/Disable this last options, also lock/unlock the other sounds checkboxes;
- Converted all the WAV files to MP3 and amplified most of them were too low;
(This way addon will shrink it's size )
- Added Shadow of Death sound / msg (proc);
- Added Frost and Heart Strike to Scourge Strike;
(I ask you to give me feedback regarding Frost and Heart Strike, since I'm Unholy based, please)
- Added Winged Steed of the Ebon Blade to Acherus Deathcharger, so now option is DK Mounts (only);
( I don't have this mount yet, I ask some confirmation regarding this, please)
Originally posted by Catilyn Any plans to add in talent abilities like the Servant of Arthas addon does?
Also, I've been thinking that perhaps there should be an option to change between Arthas' WC3 voice and WotLK.
Just a thought. I believe you can get the Lich King's voice sounds via the WotLK Wiki, specifically here.
Yes, I have plans also to do that, as soon as I stabilized the code (events detection), I will add Lich King sounds for the same events, since most of the actual sounds used are from Evil Arthas before joined with Nerzhul.
So it will exist an option: with Lich King set sounds and another for Warcraft 3, sounds
Yes, I have the sounds files, still have to look after for the scripts to play the correspondent sounds.
EDIT: Although only things needed to add is:
# Talents/Procs:
Sudden Doom (Death Trance)
Hysteria (when you cast it on yourself)
Killing Machine
# Spells:
Army of the Dead Raise Dead (this is there already)
Unholy Blight (this is there already) # Other:
Merciless Combat (target less than 35% HP) Player Death (do you think it's worth besides Shadow of Dead talent, that is on mine addon?)

Originally posted by EVmaker It does indeed work, and looks great personally (I am very glad they used the new look they have now, versus the original flying bone turkey in the beta).
The sound for it however doesn't but then I think you probably know that already since you have the number for it currently set to the same as the Deathcharger with the real number in the comments section below.
No I didn't that's why I asked for feedback, so thanks mate

BTW Acherus is considered a spell and appears as Shadow School.

Originally posted by syrupk This would be awesome, I really want to hear the sounds, I love the horse one. But I'm usually listening to music when I play, so then I hear them even less. Thanks for the great work
Uhm, that's nice, now I'm curious since you hear music in-game, cause this routine is plays sounds on music segment part of the game, if you disable the music I'm pretty sure you will not hear also the sounds of the mod, I have to really test this and see a way to "counter" this...
Anyway did you test the new version, I've upload during this last night with the new sounds
BTW I also I'm playing with music normally only disable it during raids 'cos of vent
Originally posted by ntex Yes, I know I have the same feeling that's why I've tuned up some sounds already, for example Frostmourne Hungers for Rune Strike you almost don't hear it, because of all the noise we're making with all ours skills
Next build (i hope for today will contain all sounds more amplified) except, Scorpions and Darth Vader that are from different sources, since the others sounds I'm using are all from Warcraft 3

Originally posted by syrupk I love this addon, however, I just have one complaint. The sound files for everything but "come here" could be a bit louder. If I turn the volume up anymore, the "come here" gets too loud. Is there any way to do that? i can barely hear the others.

Originally posted by sensory Looks good, but it doesn't load on start-up. :\
Only thing I can think of is folder structure because in the zip file, it doesn't have a folder to move into the /Addons folder.. just the LUA, XML, TOC files. Then again, I know little to nothing about creating addons.. it was just something I noticed. :P
Yes, now that you're telling this, I checked the zip and you're right
Anyway I will upload a correct version with folders... if you still have the files to avoid you download it again, you can create a new folder on "Interface\Addons" called "DK_Sounds" and unzip there or move the files that perhaps you still have those 3 and Sounds folder to DK_Sounds.
Next version also will make enable / disable all sounds work too.
[EDIT]: Just upload the fixed version, sorry about this guys. Advice never create addon project when your at work with your hands full, rushed things can go wrong
