O.P. contact sign in/sign out sounds
i am on XP, sp2, msn 7.0.0777 and plus! 3.52.130
i am trying to make msn play a different sound for each individual contact when they sign in/out
i have tried all ways but i jus cant get it to play a specific sound... it jus goes 'Ding' for all the contacts.
i need help, a complete 'walkthrough' of how to do it will be good
some of my settings that may be useful to determine my problem:
a) msnmessenger:
tools > options > alerts and sounds > all 4 check box checked
b) Plus!:
i) Plus! > preferences > general options > sounds > all checkbox checked, drop down menu shows '10'
ii) Plus! > preferences > notifications > sounds > 'enable contact sign-in & sign-out sound notifications' checked
iii) Plus! > preferences > notifications > sounds > *contact i want to assign a sound on sign-in* > *sound selected, played correctly, .wav file*
vi) Plus! > preferences > notifications > popup options > 'enable messenger plus! notification windows' checked, other 2 check-box unchecked
v) Plus! > preferences > notifications > popup defaults > all check-box unchecked
i have tried all combinations of the check boxes. nothing worked
i assigned sounds to the contact AND to the group he is in, and when he sign-ins, it still goes 'Ding' - the msn default
i tried signing out and in again after i have changed my settings, stills goes 'Ding'
i tried to close messenger window after i changed my settings and it still goes 'Ding'
i tried the 'save/load' on the bottom left and it still goes 'Ding'
to every contact that sign-ins, it just keep on going 'Ding', 'Ding', 'Ding' and 'Ding'
have not tried restarting computer after changing settings because a restart of msn messenger would be sufficient
