[ADDON] UnrealDBAnnouncer

[Dakkhon]

Where is the volume control of this addon?

If it's running it should show up in your Windows 10 Volume Control (right click speaker icon in the system tray and choose volume control)

However I did notice that sometimes it doesn't show up there unless it's recently been used or played a sound which I assume is some Windows specific behaviour.

Ty for that. It was loud as hell initially omg. Now it's just right

I have been using this for a while and I have the volume control but it just doesn't seem to work. I have turned it way down but it still blasts out super loud. I ran the game in admin mode and the addon as well. Any suggestions?

Otherwise this is fantastic!! I run aoe builds on my toons so it's really cool to get these kills to go so many times one after another lol.

Anyone having issues getting this addon to work with windows 11. I have two computers works fine on windows 10 but will only play the sound for the first kill on windows 11 then it wont work. any fixes for this? Thanks

No worries - I’m just having fun with it. Really cool to see other people tinkering too.

If anyone wants to dig in, there’s lots of older addon code to get inspired by on idrinth’s site: https://tools.idrinth.de/addons (RoR’s Lua is a bit… eccentric, so good to look at "working" code. ), and xyeppp has a very handy extracted view of the RoR interface here: https://github.com/xyeppp/RoR-Interface
