Suggestion for Plus sounds by superjugy on 08-21-2005 at 07:27 PM

i would like to know if there is a Messenger Plus Sound Database where you can access and decide which sounds to download to your computer to use them, if not, there should be one, thats my suggestion.

There actually is a complete list of every single song but only Sound Moderator's and a few other people have access to it. And its not something you can just go to. It requires a login and password.

Do you realise how long it would take if you wanted to download the sounds? lol

well yeah but, not all the sounds, you should be able to hear them and if you wwant them there should be something to make plus record the sounds code so that you can use them whenever you want.

This would be nice and cool in theory, but in practice this is not doable.

There are millions of users who use the sound feature and if that internal database has to be made public with a databse driven access page so everybody can access, view, sort, play, download sounds from it, it would put a extremely huge strain on the servers. And they already have a big bandwidth use as it is now. It would extremely slow down everything.

The sound feature is more meant as a feature between you and your contact, not between you and the rest of the world. In this light, the servers act as a extremely huge temporary storage device; very old sounds will eventually be deleted (as they are stored on the user's computer anyways).

Other then downloading and installing soundpacks from those sites listed in this thread, you can already download sounds randomly from the database. To do this you need to:

-open a conversation window
-click on the sound icon on the right in the typing area
-select the category you want a sound from
-click on "download random sound"
-(if you like, select a language of the sound)

Another way of downloading (popular) sounds is going to the official database statistics page and downloading the sound with the ID's you see on there...

Those are the only possible ways in getting new sounds from the sound database server...

That image is wrong.. You need to write Everything /sound #[insert random ID here]

Not only /sound 1234253645 (Part missing #

When you write like that nothing happens (Like your example)

don't forget to backup your sounds by making a soundpack out of them this time ;)
