dG Killshot

dG Killshot

Plays Unreal Tournament style sounds when you get a Killshot! It keeps count of your streaks working well with War Mode. It also tracks how many times you have killed or been killed by each player. Guild, raid and party communications are built in so it notifies others with that also have the mod that you got the kill-shot. It does this by playing the Unreal Tournament sounds. ("Ownage!", "Killing Spree!", "Dominating!", "Unstoppable!", "Godlike!", and "Wicked Sick!")

Use /dgks to quickly open to GUI. Or navigate to it through the built-in Blizzard game menu.

Sound Notifications: Plays Unreal Tournament, DoTA, Mortal Kombat, or custom sounds when you get a kill-shot.
Statistics: Records who you have killed and who has killed you.
Execute: Plays sound when target hits a configurable life threshold.
Screenshots: Takes a screenshot on kills, multi-kills, streaks, or deaths.
Emotes: Does a built-in and/or custom emote on killshots.
Text Notifications: Many output options including scrolling text mods, chat windows, emotes, etc.
Synchronized Communication: With all other mod users in your group, raid, guild or BG.
Streaks: Plays different sounds depending on the length of your killing streak.
Multi-kills: Different notifications for streaks of kills in a short period of time.
Easy Configuration: GUI integrated into the Blizzard add-on interface.
Logging: Kills and deaths are logged and displayed in the GUI.
Very Customizable: Add custom .mp3 or .ogg files.

Notes:
The Interface setting under Combat "Scrolling Text for Self" must be enabled for the floating text to work.
If you have any trouble please hit the Reset all dG Killshot Data button.
If sounds are too quiet try different Sound Channel settings.

I just did some testing. The custom soud file setup is working as expected. Two things to note:

You must restart wow whenever you rename or add any sound files. (Bliz limitation)

If you have any Sound Pack other than male selected the custom files must be in that Sound Pack's directory.

I may rework the custom sound file interface in the near future to clear up and confusion. It was created before sound packs were added.

I put the custom sounds directly in the dgks.lua for example i modificate "godlike.ogg" by "goodlike.mp3" and add the goodlike.mp3 in the sound folder obviusly if i put /run PlaySound(interface\\Addons\\dgks\\sounds\\goodlike.mp3) they sound perfect but when i make a kill dont play the file

I make the same for the PrepareforBattle i modify it directly in dgks.lua but this work fine

Hello Leech since PVPSounds has broken on patch 2.4 this is my addon for notify kills but PVPSounds has a lovely feature for me, when enter into a bg the addon sais "Prepare for battle" and miss this feature to this wonderful addon, would be very happy if you can add this option when enter battle. I have the mp3 of the sound if you will

Could you email the prepare for battle sound files to me at leech at deathgrab dot com

Preferably in a .wav format. And if you have the female or sexy versions that would be great also.

Is this a quake sound or a UT sound originally? Or even MK?

Alright feature is added to the alpha version available at wowace.com after a couple days of testing I will push out a new stable version to curse.com

You will have to check "Play prepare sound when entering battlegrounds" option. Since this will not be enabled by default.

Alright, I have found the sound issue some people are having.

Pre-4.0 addon sounds played off the master volume. Blizzard changed this so they play off the sound effects volume. Meaning they are the same volume as everything else and tend to blend in.

Blizzard has acknowledged the issue (blue post) and will fix it soon.

This may be another one of those errors generated 'cause Blizzard's not yet got their code under control but here you go. This happened why I tried to run the script for the sound file and I checked my sound file extensions in game and they are still .ogg files as are the ones in my dgks folder.

My kills are being counted and the sound seems okay when it goes off.

You forgot the ")" at the end.

Try playing a blizzard sound:
/script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Music\\ZoneMusic\\DMF_L70ETC01.mp3")
Then a dgks sound:
/script PlaySoundFile("Interface\\Addons\\dgks\\sounds\\ownage.ogg")

If the volume is about the same on both files its a World of Warcraft/computer setting that we need to figure out. If the Blizzard sound file is louder there maybe an issue with my dgks .ogg files. So far I cannot replicate this issue on my 3 machines so an help replicating this would be great.

Few things fellas, one, if you want your files louder, download these.
http://www.aaafunbounce.biz/sounds.zip
I amplified the decibels by +12. However, these are MP3's and my OGG converter is FUBAR, therefore you'll need to modify the dgks.lua too. Simply replace all instances of ".ogg" to ".mp3" Finally, in options (type /gdks in game) make sure your sound files have ".mp3" extension rather than the current ".ogg".

On a side note, to those who are having issues with kill count, this may be a bliz bug too. Notice how sometimes in BG's your name isn't anywhere. In fact, the score board isn't even showing your BG at all! Yeah... gg.

There is no need to edit the .lua
Just editing the sound files tab in game will make the changes.

If you adjust gain (volume) on a compressed format like .ogg or .mp3 you will lose sound quality quickly. If you actually want to do this go download 3.3.5.x and use the .wav fails and convert them. They will convert with much better sound quality.

I would suggest that no one actually modifies the sound files to adjust the volume. I will find a solution over the next few days.

I will look into this tonight. There were some pretty major changes with the Unreal Tournament style being added. It is very possible I have a typo somewhere or it is hitting a Blizzard bug.

Alright, I had some time to do some more testing and with version 4.0.0.126 kill streaks seem to be working as intended. By default they do reset every time you change zones or enter a new battleground. You can uncheck the reset on zone change option in the General section to toggle that.
