How to use Sound

To use the sounds in mIRC:

  1. Your system has to be set to accept sounds.
  2. You have to have the wav file.
  3. The file has to be in the sounds folder of mIRC.
  1. Setting your mIRC program to accept sounds

    • Click on the General Options folder in the tool bar in mIRC.
    • Scroll down to the Requests section under Sounds and click on it.
    • Click the box that says accept sound requests


    Now all you need are some sounds.

  2. Sound files

    The sound files most used in Barliman's are available in the downloads provided here . You can make your own .wav files. Where ever you get the sounds to use them they have to be in the Sounds folder in mIRC

  3. Putting the sounds in the right place

    After you download the file. unzip it into the sounds folder of mIRC. If you have made your own sounds the files must be stored in your Sounds folder in mIRC. For others to hear your sound they must also have the file. You can send it to your friends direct or submit it to PipeSmoke@theonering.net. The downloads will be updated periodically as new sounds are received.

It is as simple as that. Of course to hear the sounds, your computer speakers have to be connected on and all such nonsense. To play a sound in the chatroom, type:

/sound 'file name'. wav
hit enter

Example: /sound boromirhorn.wav will cause you to hear a horn being blown.

Have fun. Remember, though, other patrons may not have the same tastes as you. Respect the other people. If you are asked to stop by an op please obey.
