Custom sound files disabled?
 
I tried playing a custom sound file with PlaySoundFile() and I hear nothing. Is this disabled like custom textures were?

The code works for me in my little mod. How are you trying to play the sound? To make it work in a macro or just typing it in also works.

/script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Spells\\AbolishMagic.wav")

Note the only wav files that will work are ones built into the wow client otherwise ogg or mp3 will be required.

That is not a custom sound file

Very true for some reason had a brain fart there. After trying an ogg of my own it did not seem to work. Kind of curious since dbm and gtfo use custom sounds and work fine in the beta. I even tried calling a couple of these mods sound files directly to no avail.

I'm confused! I use the AddOn Hear Kitty and the sound-files can not be played since last build. But DBM and GTFO still works fine. And all of these addons use the same format, .ogg!

Format and encoding is not always the same thing, keep that in mind.

True story!

On a side note, it seems that custom sounds are in fact disabled/broken. The CUSTOM sounds from DBM is not working, just checked it out!

Unless something changed, custom sounds had been enabled when custom textures were. My addon Awwww! is working on the beta client (or was, as of the other day).

The custom sound file fatility doesn't play in bugsack.

That is true, it must have been disabled in 18689.

Am I just out of. My whisper sound will also not play.

galvin 08-11-14 11:17 PM

Still broken on latest build.

freequest 08-19-14 10:10 AM

Seems like it is still broken in the lastest 18738 build

Gello 08-19-14 01:32 PM

Do you guys think this is related to the inability to replace custom sound files over the default ones too? That's the Data\Sound\Spells\etc files we can create 0-length .ogg files to mute and stuff.

The folder structure is a bit different, so they could may be relocated someplace else. Has anyone tried and had any success?

I hope we're still able to replace default sounds. Sounds like Sound\Spells\JewelcraftingLoop.ogg make me crawl up the wall.

galvin 08-20-14 09:09 PM

Hope they fix this, has anyone reported it?

galvin 09-03-14 11:13 AM

Still broken on latest build.

galvin 09-09-14 10:16 PM

Getting fixed

PlaySoundFIle() not working is a bug and should be fixed in a future Beta build.

In addition, functions that involve add-ons (GetAddonInfo, GetAddonDependances, etc.) should take the name or index.

Any chance of getting the C_PetJournal functions updated to work more like the new C_MountJournal functions, in that you can iterate over all the mounts without having to clear and restore all the filters? It's currently very tedious to work with the pet API, to such an extent that there's a dedicated library that does nothing but maintain an internal list of all the pets and provide a bunch of API wrappers. This seems like a clear case of designing the API around the UI, but it would be very nice to have an API that was just usable as-is.
Apparently an active EU account doesn't qualify me to post there. :rolleyes:

All done :)

Haleth 09-10-14 05:21 PM

Slightly off-topic, but can you ask them if they can fix the item quality returns for GetInboxItem and GetSendMailItem? It always returns -1, even though the default UI is now meant to show item quality borders for mail items.
