Forums mIRC Help /sound not working from one user to me. STUMPED

everyone in private chat can send me a

/sound filename

and i hear it fine but one user can not. When she tries she gets a
[NICKNAME|#CHANNEL] Unknown command error and hears nothing
on her side and it appears i never get the command either so i hear
nothing as well.

we both have the same sound in our default sound folder and i can send a

/sound filename

to her and we both hear it play.

She tried /sound NICK FILENAME

and still gets the [NICKNAME|#CHANNEL] Unknown command error
even when supplying my nick which has me stumped.

any idea what is wrong? it appears to be on her side since
everyone else can /sound to me just fine.

The strange part is i can /sound to her and it works but she can
not to me. we both have mirc 6.0.3 and both have sound requests turned on

thoughts?


thanks,

Try /[color:red]!sound nick filename[/color]

ok will do


may i ask what the ! does? and what you think the problem is?


thanks

I'm guessing that she has an alias called "sounds" that is replacing the default /sounds command, the ! will make mIRC ignore aliases and use the default mIRC /sounds command.

yes that worked! thanks


however we searched high and low and can't find an alias.

her alias only has the default stuff. I looked in the remote scripts area also and nothing.

is there a way to find what is aliased to /sound or reset it back so she doesn't need to use !

thanks

Zep

Tell her to type this:
//echo -a $isalias(sound).fname
and it should echo the name of the file that the alias is in, hopefully that will help you find it.
