Hello there.

I play a great MUD which was recently brought back to life called Unicorn Valley (unicornvalleymud.com port 2600).

They have a sort of sound that is triggered as time passes, depending on which area you are on. They have a pack of sound files on their website (http://unicornvalleymud.com/downloads.htm).

I unzipped the folder onto mushclient/sounds (the directory was already created) but when the MUD prompts to play a sound I get the message:

!!SOUND(bben1.wav)The cathedral bells ring out the hour.
That particular wave file is there at the folder.

I'm using version 4.73.
Any tips? I thank you in advance for everything!

Have you installed the MSP plugin? That is what detects those lines and plays the sounds. I think the latest one is here:

Look for the "msp" plugin.

Now I have installed the plugin and there was an advance.

I now read the message clearly:


The cathedral bells ring out the hour.
(without the !!SOUND message)

But it won't play the correct sound. It plays some standard random error windows sound.

That plugin looks quite old. Judging by what I see in it, it is looking for sound files at:


c:\mushclient\msp\


I suggest you edit the plugin (xml) file with any text editor, like Notepad, and change the line near the top with that in it (msp_path) to where you put your sounds. Something like:


c:\Program Files\Mushclient\sounds\


Save that and re-install the plugin and it should work.

If not, possibly the sound files are not in a supported format.
