Add to "Quest Sounds" option?

Hi - In other addons I have been able to add sounds to the quest complete / objective complete list. In Carbonite, I have not found a way to do this. Any pointers? Also, any plans on including an "objective complete" option also?

It doesn't have this functionality built in, but you can modify the files to play whatever sound you want. I was just curious and thought to try adding a sound. It seemed to work ingame.

If you have a sound file in particular you want to add, I can modify the file and attach it. You would drop it ontop of the other one. Your carbonite custom settings are not saved in the same file, so there is no worry of losing how you set it up.

Picking A Sound
Built-in
Use a MPQ editor to look at WoW's data files and find the sound file. The editor should have an option to get the path of that file.

Custom
Sound files need to be .wav format. You can place it in the "Carbonite\Snd" folder. The path will then be Carbonite\Snd\<soundname>.

Post the path of the file and I will modify the file to add it to the list ingame.

The code was purposely made hard to modify, so I won't be able to add an option ingame to add a file. It's too hard to figure out how the menus are working. I only found a few lists that have the sound information. Carbonite just seems to read everything in the lists and put it in the menu.

Also I could post a guide for you to modify the file yourself, but it can be confusing. It's mostly copying and pasting but if you make a typo the whole addon might break. You might have a hard time finding out what you did wrong.
