Uh-Oh! Notifier
- By
Bring back the legendary 'Uh-Oh!' from the golden age of instant messaging – now every whisper sounds like it's 2003 again.
Uh-Oh! Notifier
Never miss a whisper again. Uh-Oh! Notifier plays a short notification sound whenever someone whispers you – even when you're alt-tabbed, looking at a second monitor or have your sound effects turned off.
And it's not just whispers: you decide which chat messages should get your attention.
Features
- Custom notification sound for incoming messages
- Choose your message types: Whispers, Battle.net whispers, Guild, Officer, Party, Raid (incl. raid warnings), Instance / Battleground, Say, Yell, Emotes and public channels (General, Trade, ...)
- Plays through the Master channel – you'll hear it even with sound effects muted
- Adjustable cooldown – no sound spam when the whole guild talks at once
- Ignores your own messages
- Options panel under Options → AddOns → Uh-Oh! Notifier plus slash commands
- Lightweight – a single small file, no libraries, no dependencies
- Works on Classic Era, Season of Discovery, Anniversary, TBC, Wrath, Mists and Retail
By default only Whispers and Battle.net whispers are enabled.
