@feneur after I attached it to the post, I copied the link and pasted into a PM to @niektb. Then I tried it and saw it didn't work, unless I clicked the link from the forum thread itself.

@aquashift, sounds like you did a good bit of troubleshooting. Did you find 0 A.D. pretty easy to build? I have Debian Jessie 8 and use the backports repo for the latest pre-packaged version (I also have an svn version installed). At the time of writing this, 0.0.20 is available. To use backports, the simple instructions are at https://play0ad.com/download/linux/

Thanks for the feedback @sphyrth. And I can't take credit for that sound, it's one that was already in the svn repo (gratefully I won't have to try making another sound). The warship sound is just being used for a placeholder, though I think it makes a great join 0 A.D. sound. The final sound will be decided later in this thread, I'd expect.

@feneur, it may be a bug. Sounds like one anyway. If some users can download but others can not. If that were true, one thing that could have thrown it off was when I edited the post, deleting the original ogg files that were attached, and attaching the .wavs. I noticed 2 other odd behaviors too. last night when replying to this post, I couldn't insert a link where I wanted it. It kept appearing in the upper left corner of my reply. When I tried cutting and pasting, I couldn't paste. Eventually I gave up. I'll see if it works now. ticket #4090 and now it works. The difference? This post doesn't have quoted text, which was included in the post I had problems with last night. But I know people have added links to post with quoted text and that it *should* work. ??? (indicates confusion) Maybe next I'll try restarting my browser. Though... I still haven't restarted it since typing that post. The 2nd potential issue is documented on ticket #4090.

_04 used a vibraphone, and the pattern was different. I'm sorry there was trouble downloading it. I don't know why. @feneur, no, I didn't attach it to a PM, I attached it directly to the post. Hopefully it's a fluke. Some may have heard this, the nick notification patch was approved and committed to svn earlier today. (See #2898) Thanks for all the help and feedback, guys.

I started working on this patch.

chat_alert_harp.wav

Elexis said he likes chat_alert_04, and needs one other staff member to agree before he commits the sound and the patch to svn.

Ah, thank you fabio. I can still make copies from the original sources (MuseScore files); I'll re-upload them tomorrow. I've also been wondering about the format. Stereo or mono for a sound like this? Should I be thinking about audio specs Hz, bps, vbr, etc. at this point? And how does the review process work? How does the final decision get made?

These are more refined. chat_alert_02_01.wav chat_alert_03_01.wav chat_alert_04_04.wav

As I think about it more, I feel that we'll need two separate chat sounds. The mood in the lobby and at a game setup menu is different from during game play. Opinions on this?

Here's one option: http://svn.wildfiregames.com/public/ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/audio/interface/alarm/alarm_warship_03.ogg

Thanks, Lion and niektb. This is one I came up with, but I'm interested to hear some samples by you other folks. If I come up with anything else, I'll attach them to this thread, without any notice at all. chat_alert.ogg chat_alert_02.mscz

I created a ticket for this: #4101 I haven't started writing a patch for it yet, so don't anyone (Lion.Kanzen)work too hard yet hunting for sound clips. But we'll need one.

We're working on a patch that enables users to receive a sound notification if his or her nick is mentioned in the lobby, game setup menu, or during the game. Wanted: sound clip ticket #2898

Can anyone tell me the best way to get the username of the local user while in the addChatMessage() function of messages.js and gamesetup.js? /binaries/data/mods/public/gui/session/messages.js /binaries/data/mods/public/gui/gamesetup/gamesetup.js This is in regards to ticket #2898

We'll need a decent sound clip for this. Right now, I used the sound of a metal deposit being selected as a placeholder. [PATCH] audio notification system when your nick is mentioned in chat
