only msg plus users will be able to hear these sounds?

normal WLM 2009 wont be able to?

---

yes, correct.

Only users of Messenger Plus! (and if they enabled Plus! sounds to be played in their Plus! preferences) will hear the sounds. This goes for both the build-in sounds like the 'Muahahaha' and the custom sounds from the soundpacks/sound library.

But all Messenger users will see the texts from the build-in sounds though. Although people without Plus! will not see the colors either, as that is also a Plus!-only feature.

Is it possible to display custom sounds names like those built-in ones have?

Example:
Muahahaha (in different colors) and sound being played simultaneously.

Yes, by making your own 'Quicktext' consisting of a (colored) textline and a command to play the custom sound.

However, the text and sound will both show a line in the chat window. So you can't make it _exactly_ as you'll see with the build-in sounds.

Another method is to alter the actual text displayed by the build-in sounds. For this you need to alter the language file of your current selected Plus! interface language which you'll find in the 'Languages' subdirectory in your Plus! installation directory.

Note that you can only change the displayed text with this method, not the actual sounds.
