[release]The Beeper release B4b (in English) by Jordi87 on 08-16-2006 at 09:53 AM
Have you ever been waiting for someone in MSN?
Have you ever played a game while you were connected?
When you wait you get bored, when you get bored you play a game, but if you play a game you don't realice when someone get's online(sound doesn't work properly).But what about the internal speaker?
Have you ever need someone's help but he was a playing a game and didnt' know that you were talking?
If you understand this situation you will love this script.The Beeper
http://perso.wanadoo.es/jordi__87
I've a forum to solve problems related to my script,suggestions,etc.
Main web page is in spanish and the plugin too but I think it's easy to understand (for me ), if not please request my help.
Greetings,
Jordi

Don't really want this script...but sounds good
RE: [release]The Beeper by Jordi87 on 08-16-2006 at 10:28 AM
Thank you SonicSam.
I forgot to comment that an external wireless "beeping hardware" is under development, and that this version is Beta so it doesn't have all features like music editor (for internal speaker).

RE: [release]The Beeper (now in English too) by Jordi87 on 08-16-2006 at 08:22 PM
I'm sorry.The english version had a bug, now I've uploaded the correct version.
I will try to explain how it works.
Install the script.
HOWTO WAIT FOR SOMEONE
Go to butterfly icon and then go to The Beeper menu and click in configure contacts...
Now select a contact and click on "Notify me when...", check "User signs in" and then close the windows. When the selected user sign in, your PC will start to emit a beep throught the iternal speaker. To stop it, go to butterfly menu, beeper menu and then click on "stop beep!".
HOWTO ENABLE BOT BEEP
When you are playing or watching a movie, you don't want to get disturb if it's not important.Beeper bot will attend your conversations and say to everyone who try to speak to you that they can warn you by writing the beep command.
Go to butterfly menu, beeper menu and click on "configure contacts...". Select a contact and click on "Enable Beeper BOT", configure a message for this contact, typically "I'm busy, if it's important write !beep" or something similar, the confirmation message tell the user that !beep command has succesfully executed and the reconfirmation message warn the user if the PC is beeping. Repeat this step for every contact that you want to allow to use this service. Beeper will ignore unset contacts, so it will be like beeper it's not installed for this contacts.
Now you have to enable beeper in at least one status. Go to butterfly menu, beeper menu and then click on "Enable when...". Check Busy state. This will do that every time you go to busy status beeper will enable the bot, otherwise beeper will be like it's uninstalled. You can also check Away and Idle for example. Now go to one of the selected status tro activate the beeper bot, for example busy.
You will see "(under beeper) " plus your old personal message in your personal message. This prefix message will be erased when you go to an status in which beeper is disabled. Sometimes this not happen you can delete it manually if this is the case. Beeper bot is enabled.
Play your favorite game, if some of the enabled commands speaks to you, beeper bot will reply with your message. If then they write !beep, your PC will start beeping. You can also change the beep characteristics in the butterfly menu,beeper menu "Configure beep sound...".
The Enable hardware button by now does not do anything,it's for a future version.
I hope you like it,
please leave feedback...

Jordi

Oh I'm sorry. I'm afraid that's why I changed the Script name (added English to the original name). I changed the name because with the same name I only could install one version or overwrite the other version.
I think there's a way to retrieve your data.
Rename the folder "The Beeer Hardware Edition English" to "The Beeer Hardware Edition".
If you want to repack the script installer:
Rename the English.plsc to English.zip.
Extract files.
Open ScriptInfo.xml with notepad.
Look for <Name>The Beeper Hardware Edition English</Name> tag and change it to
<Name>The Beeper Hardware Edition</Name>
Save the changes and pack all files in a zip
Rename the new zip to plsc. Install it.
This should retrieve your data.
I hope I helped you.
Greetings,
Jordi
EDIT: There's another way to copy data to the new version
open regedit.exe
go to key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\GlobalSettings\Scripts\The Beeper Hardware Edition\ and rename it to
The Beeper Hardware Edition English

Sorry, it's ok now, I re-did it once I downloaded so it's all good.
+ Could there be an option if we want (under beeper) to go into our psm aswell, it can get annoying, thanks...
RE: [release]The Beeper (in English) release B3 by Jordi87 on 08-19-2006 at 09:04 AM
You can disable (under beeper) until the next release editing the Script sources. Search for this at the beginning of the script
var beeper_enabled_ps="(under beeper)";
and change it to
var beeper_enabled_ps="";

1) open a DOS command console: Start > Run > cmd
2) Type CTRL+G and press enter
(you'll see ^G on the command line and you should hear a beep)

You know, Appmon+ also has this feature, it will beep when get a message when you are playing a game.
It auto-detects that you are playing (Main function of the script) and will beep if you want it to.
RE: [release]The Beeper release B4b (in English) by Jordi87 on 11-26-2006 at 08:35 AM
Hi,
I've tested AppMon+ and It's different.
Beeper will not detect what application you're running it only will detect the current state. If you configured this state to enable beeper, a bot will reply all your conversations (it has a filter contact, so you can enable it to a certain contacts) and if the contacts says !beep internal speaker will beep in a loop ( not a single beep). You can also enable notifications to certain contacts ,for example when someone signs in,beeper will beep. Through the chat window you can activate a "next message beep", so when the contact replies your PC will beep. While beeper it's beeper for "I'm at home (out of PC) if you need something write !beep", AppMon+ it's beeter for "I'm playing a game,change my status and my PSM and alert me whenever someone says something".
What I'm planning for next versions:melody beeps and an USB RF adaptor.
And of course feel free to aport your ideas at the forum .
Greetings,
Jordi

And if that doesn't sound, how can we make it make a sound
RE: [release]The Beeper release B4b (in English) by Jordi87 on 11-26-2006 at 10:54 AM
In volume control of your sound card (control panel) there is a Internal Speaker control slidebar, check it's not silenced.
I supose it's a windows configuration mismatch. You are not the only one that can't hear system beeps so I'm working on a version that uses normal speakers to make beeps.

open your computer case and search for a speaker
It is quite often located on the back of the front plate of the case. Or in some rare cases, there is a very small 'piezo' buzzer mounted on the motherboard itself.
(it is indeed not rare that a computer system doesn't contain an internal speaker anymore though; or isn't hooked up)
