I have spent a few hours looking for an addon to do a specific job, but it seems that I have totally failed, I hope I will get some help in here.

What I am looking for, is an addon that will be able to show boss emotes as a raid and audio warning. I would like to be able to adjust color and size of the raid warning, and select a sound for the audio warning.

At first I thought this could be done through SCT or MSBT. I spent a couple of hours but I did not manage to do anything similar to what I wanted. MSBT has an option to show all boss emotes, but that is not exactly what I want because I want to setup only the too important boss emotes as raid/audio warnings. For example Sartharion's Lava Wave.

I am not sure if it can be done with SCT or MSBT, but if it cannot be done, my next idea DogTags, I am too new on them, so I guess I might be totally wrong.

I need to remind you that I am not talking about a bossmod addon that is showing all boss emotes as warnings. I specifically ask about an addon that will be able to select a boss emote and show it as an adjustable raid warning, with a sound of my choice.

I would like to avoid answers like "use bigwigs, it is good enough". Thanks in advance for any help I might get.

So you want to have an add-on that takes a pre-existing yell from a boss, or a boss emote? There is a difference between the two, and then have it available in a macro?

Or do you want it to be during a boss fight only, which in effect is like a boss mod?

And you cannot adjust the size of a raid warning, it's set to a default size by Blizzard. The color you can change on your end through the chat options. But if you want a specific sound to play, you'll need the means of a boss mod to do that, and I think you can then through a boss mod type configuration change the color and size easier.

It all depends upon exactly what you're trying to do.

Ok, let me speak with an existing example so that I let you understand what I am looking for.

I am looking for an addon such as MSBT (warning wise), that will parse the chatlog, for an emote such as

"The lava surrounding Sartharion churns!"

Then it would show an adjustable warning like "RUN" at a selected area of the screen with font size 40 and red color. It would also make a sound like the one that omen has "YOU WILL DIE" or something.

This is what pretty much MSBT does for buff gains etc through triggers, except that I could not do it with boss emotes.

I hope my explanation was clear this time. My first language is not English :/

Well if that's all you want, then you either have to send it via the blizzard Raid Warning system, in which the size and sound are set.

Or you can use BigWigs->Plugins and adjust settings from there. But everyone in your raid will need BW for that. And I don't know how to adjust in DBM. And if you want you're own custom sound you'll need to add it into the BigWigs/Sounds folder.

You can also if so desired, mess with the LUA files to add bigger warnings if so desired.

Other than that, you would need to write a whole new add-on for what you want to do, and just from an outside point of view, I doubt that would be highly used, so getting someone to make it for you will be hard, unless someone in your guild does it.

DBM allready has an audible warning for the tsunamis, maybe it is what you are looking for.

You could try the bossmod from openRDX, it is a full customizable ingame alert bossmod.

You can create some triggers (call events). Here is a list of available triggers :
- Simple events ("CHAT_MSG_RAID_BOSS_EMOTE", "CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_EMOTE", "CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_SAY", "CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_WHISPER", "CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_YELL"), in the simple event, fill the message you want to listen.
- Omniscience events, the combat log facilities from OpenRDX, you can listen to buff, debuff, damage, dead etc...
- Event HP/mana : Define some triggers base on the boss HP and mana
- Event timer : base on time
Triggers can be send to all your raid members.

After you have defined some triggers, you have to create actions :
- Use message alert in center
- Use a dropdown message alert
- use sound alert of your choice (OpenRDX has his own Sound library, you can add yours, with register functions)
For each alert, you can customize the color of the text and bar.

We have added what we call the Ability tracker. Enable the ability tracker from the menu OpenRDX before a fight with a boss. The ability tracker will record all the emotes and abilities of the boss. At the end of the fight (after the wipe) open the ability tracker and generate all pairs triggers and actions automatically.

When you have finished to customize your bossmod definition, use the ingame transfert of OpenRDX to update the bossmod of all your raid members.

You can see some pictures of the bossmods editor in this following link :
OpenRDX :: View topic - Bossmod Help

Unfortunately, there is no guide today, this is something I must do in the future. We haven't released any OOBE on WowI with bossmod definition yet.

Fast begin with OpenRDX :
From the explorer RDX, create a package and then create an object bossmod.
Open The bossmod editor (right click on your object bossmod) (if edit is not present, you have to enable Development mode in the main menu RDX.
Add a feature Register Encounter, enter the name of the boss.
Add the feature Basic MSG/OMNI

Now you are ready to create pairs triggers/actions.

Im write simple addon that redirects all raidwarning, bossraidemote in MSBT, SCT, Parrot, chat, UIErrorFrame etc
TenOut : WoWInterface Downloads : Raid Mods
To do:
-add options for filter message, choice of sound warning

Sorry for bad English.

I tested it, and it works nice. Although, it needs your "to-do" to be perfect. Thanks a lot for your work until now.

Im pending new version TenOut
TenOut : WoWInterface Downloads : Raid Mods
Added settings for adjust color and sound
Added filter for tracked too important boss emotes.
For example Sartharion's Lava Wave :
-in Special warning options --> input tracked message : The lava surrounding Sartharion churns!
