O.P. Play all regular sounds for specific Contacts while Busy
I don't mean emoticon sounds :) but I would like it, if i could select which Contacts I want to be able to hear while busy.

Possible? or already in Plus! Live somewhere..

* More specificly, the Instant Message Sound.

I'm sure you could do something like turn off the default signin toast, replace it with your own when people sign in, and set it so that if the contacts email is one you want to hear sound for, it plays the sound file :p

PS: you could set it for other events as well as signin

i didn't see in the 'event notifications' that it will play the sound of an instant message ..  only 'started new chat' .. sound, but what i would like is for the instant message sound to play for specific contacts, regardless if you are busy, right now i don't think it can do that

I know you can play sounds during a toast, so why not be able to do it at other times? :s

hard to explain what i mean i guess, i'd like all the regular sounds of WLM, including Plus! sounds...  to play for specific contacts, when set to Busy.

You mean this?

I know you can turn off sound notifications using Plus! for certain contacts. If this is possible using a script, then you can disable sounds from unwanted contacts when your status is set to busy and then the others will still play

i tick that option so its enabled... but, when im set busy, i get no IM sound when somebody is msging me :), you know.. the 'New Instant Message' sound in Messenger itself.

Event Notification sounds Do work.. when set to Busy, if i have a Sound attached to them, but there is no Event option for 'New Instant Message'

Try something like the following:
[/code]function OnEvent_ChatWndCreated(ChatWnd)
{
  if (Messenger.MyStatus == 4)
  {
    MsgPlus.PlaySound("Notify.mp3")
  }
}[/code]
This script will give you a notification via sound of someone starting a new chat with you (though it will also do it when you open the chat window, sorry but it is a limitation).  Also it doesn't use the proper WLM sound, it just uses a notify sound that MP!L has (though you can just change the file).  I hope this is useful for you.

    MsgPlus.PlaySound("C:\temp\wlm\sounds\messenger\03_newalert.wav")
  }
}
