What is QuestNoise?
This addon plays sounds whenever you make progress on a quest. It plays a different sound for completing the quest, completing only a single objective of the quest, or making progress on an objective. Unlike the other addons I've found that provide the sound feature of GuestGuru, this addon does not require or use LibQuixote (which does many quest-related things that we don't use or need).
What does it look like?
It's invisible! The only thing this addon does is play the noise and, upon quest completion, display a yellow message (just like the objective progress messages) saying which quest you just completed.
What are the default sounds?
- Upon making progress on a quest, it will play the ding that you hear when you open the Auction House window:
/run PlaySound(SOUNDKIT.AUCTION_WINDOW_OPEN) - Upon completing an objective, it will play the ding that you hear when you close the Auction House window:
/run PlaySound(SOUNDKIT.AUCTION_WINDOW_CLOSE) - Upon completing the quest, it will play the orc peon's "Work Complete" sound:
/run PlaySoundFile("558132")
How do I change the sounds?
Go to the Interface options, and then choose the Addons tab. On the left, look for "QuestNoise." In here, you can change the sounds for each event. Options are currently limited, more will be added soon.
Unfortunately, doesn't work anymore...
Any update on a fix?
Just echoing others in that my addon has quit working too, in the last couple months. Fix please?
Getting a lot of LUA errors with this now and it doesn't work for the most part for me in 8.2.
I loved having the auction bell sound for quest objectives. Is there any alternative to get this sound?
I think this is still working even though is is listed as outdated, but a TOC update would be nice. Also since you have the Peon "Work complete!" sound for the Quest Complete option how about the "Work, work" sound ("Sound\Creature\Peon\PeonYes3.ogg") for having an Objective complete.
It appears that this addon has stopped working after the recent patch. From what I can gather from other add-ons it seems that the sound references have changed in this patch.
Yep, just realized this myself and am pushing out an update.
Hello! Any chance of making it work for World Quests, too?
more sounds plz :p
Thank you for updating this!
The new patch seems to have broken this :(
I looked around but there doesn't seem to be any bugs or errors it just isn't working. Thank you for all of your hard work on this addon.
The events that fire regarding quest objectives all changed, so I will try to work on that in the coming days. Just wanted to let everyone know that I am playing and working on it (as well as my other addons which are broken)
It seems to be working today so I think whatever you patched seemed to fix the issues. Thank you!
Is there any way for me to donate?
You're welcome! There's a donate link underneath the download link, but don't feel like you have to donate!
Thank you so much for updating! And yes, I did have the "Mark of the World Tree" quests on both those toons. I figured out afterward that was causing the bug, so I deleted those quests and it worked perfectly. Sorry for not coming back and letting you know. But thanks again for this great add on. I love the instant gratification.
No problem, and glad you like it! Luckily, my main has those quests too and I was easily able to figure out the problem.
I love this addon. Please update for 5.0.4 and Mists! It's the best! It's working fine on my hunter when I do "Load out of date addons," but for some reason it crashes on my druid and shaman. It would be great if I could hear it again.
Just now getting back into WoW, I will work on this and update hopefully by the weekend.
Version 1.6 is up for wow 5.0.5. Fixed the crash and did a TOC bump so it's not out of date anymore. By chance, did you still have some of the "Mark of the World Tree"-gathering quests on your druid and shaman?
