[Sug] Favourite sounds tab by haydos on 03-21-2005 at 07:48 AM

Now that the new feature has been going a while i have noticed that i have accumulated a large amount of sounds. I find that it can become quite anoying to go through the list again and again to get certain sounds. I thought that if a favourites tab (see screenshot) was added it would be much easier to use the sounds feature.

I dont mean something like Most used sounds because i know that is already there, i was thinking more along the lines of being able to 'add to favourites' from this window:

The favourites tab could look something like this:

What do you think?

You can show/hide the sounds.

Furthermore, if you have a lot of faveorite sounds, you'll be confused by what topic a sound in.

I like the idea (y) some people may find that handy :)

I realise you can do this but i have 2 reasons to stick with the favourites idea.
Firstly, I have about 200 sounds and that wont be fun to sort through :S Also If a sound is hidden I still may want to use it so I will have to do extra work to get to it.

Sorry I don't know exactly what you mean

well you'd think if they were your favourite sounds, they'd be in your statistics for being the most played sounds :P. But i understand your request for a favourites feature, i'm just not sure about it at the moment, i do know what you mean tho about having a large amount of sounds i have 400 ;).

I think Third Dimension is right. It's a good suggestion. A favorite category where you can only manually add sounds to, so that it will only contain your favorites. But of course the sounds in the favorite category should also remain in their original category (like Movie / music etc.)

Oh, that sounds nice :) You can quickly find your favorites, and you don't loose them in the category they were in (Y)

Bah, I have a suggestion, how about being able to make our own sections for sounds!:cheesy:

RE: [Sug] Favourite sounds tab by L. Coyote on 03-21-2005 at 02:32 PM

Aren't the categories in the server?

So this means none of this is possible? Or just creating your own groups?

Yes, that's why you can't create your own groups, but that also why I said: But of course the sounds in the favorite category should also remain in their original category (like Movie / music etc.), so that the sounds still remain in their original category, but only on your own pc they are marked as 'favourite'.

Now we just need somebody who wants to make it :rolleyes:
