Different sound for different contact [plus! suggestion] by dc82 on 07-26-2005 at 07:12 PM

Hi

Firstly, I hope this is the right area for my question!

I would like to know if there is a plugin available, which allows you to assign a different sound for a different contact so that everytime they send or reply to a message, an alternative assigned sound is played?

Im aware you can already set up Messenger Plus so that different sounds can be played each time a different contact signs in to Messenger, but would find it very useful to know when a particular person has responded in a conversation window, without having to look!

Thanks for any information :)

that would be a good suggestion for a MSG Plus! feature

Yeah... I agree... Why hasn't anybody thought of this before!?! lol... Patchou should look into this.

i recomment you add [plus! suggestion] to your thread title, and it be moved to the msgplus section(my a mod of course)

This was also suggested here Custom message sound for different contacts

Patchou says it's possible.

I'm sure it would be possible as Patchou has the custom sign in and sign out sounds in plus!. It could be a good idea but i don't think many people will use it.

i use that feature all the time, fo the speople i really want to talk to, i put a custom sound, so i can hear it when i'm watching TV

I went as far as recording my own voice saying this contact has signed in or this contact has signed out. I did this for all of my about 60 contacts then. But then i couldn't be bothered to do more as i have about 100 contacts now.

Good idea for those who have mics!... But then again... the suggestion of having them for each message recieved is a really good idea too... Like... You're watching a movie, and then you hear people talkin to you... and you know there's only one person you absolutely need to talk to if they come online... Then you know it's them and not just some person that wants to chat.

What about going so far as to possibly use the Microsoft Speech applet to say "<Contact> has just signed in."?

Eh, that's not what we're talking about anymore ;) haha... you can already do that... We mean everytime somebody sends you a message you can hear a different sound for each different person.
