Setting Up Sound to Play Wavs 
First ensure mIRCWelcome to the mIRC Homepage!  is   running and click on File pulldown and choose Options, next you should choose Sound and Requests folder and check    "accept sounds and warn if file doesn't exist" also set the path where any exiting wav files you would like to play,  preferably separate from any programs or other types of files, i.e.; c:\mirc\sounds\ is where most would be located, making sure ofcourse that directory exists, the choice is yours. Then go to DCC Options FServe and make sure that directory matches the path you specified in Sound Requests folder (for version before 5.4).  The next step of course is to put some files in that directory, such as test.wav click here. Get it Now!!

Click and File Save As c:\mirc\sounds\test.wav.    Please stand by while the file transfers As soon as that transfer is done, if you didn't send it to your wav directory you need to move it there now, then type in your mIRC client screen, either on a channel or a query to someone;

Try It
/sound (the channel name, or the person's nick) test.wav (anything here)
/sound test.wav
/sound person'snick test.wav this works
You should be all set now, if you didn't hear the sound, something isn't right.

If this don't work for you.  Come and see us on  on any of these wav channels --->

You also need to set up auto send to be able to share your wavs with others;

Click on Tools, Remote, Events
1. Place a check in "Listening"
2. Cut and paste (or type) the following line in the Remote Events:
1:ON TEXT:!yournick*:*:/dcc send $nick $wavedir $+ $parm2 | /notice $nick sending $parm2 :)~~~
3. Replace "yournick" with your nickname (leave the ! and *)
For mIRC version 5.0 and up it should read
on 1:TEXT:!yournick*:*:/dcc send $nick $wavedir $+ $parm2 | /notice $nick sending $parm2 to $nick enjoy !!!   :)~~~
4. Watch your spacing in the above in because it is very important.

Another thing you need to do is go to

        File, Options, Sound Request
                       It should be the fifth item listed
                       and uncheck the option that says
               to send file request as private message
               This upsets some people and is annoying so uncheck it.

If you have TROUBLE SENDING: If you can't dcc send manually, do this:
Go to file, options, servers and enable the dde, then click OK -AND:
Go to file, setup, local, and clear the info from the 2 boxes there and
click "always get local host" - then click ok - then close mirc program -
then open it back up & sign back on. You should then be able to send.
To check your version (or anyone's click the nickname from the list in the
channel, then right-click it, choose ctcp, version - then look in status.
These steps should also be done
Go to DCC, options
You should see three sections there the one on the top is called:  On DCC completion the next one is the one you want to change.  It is called Time-Out In Seconds

Look at the time-out in seconds

Get/Chat Dialog:
Send/Get Transfer:
Fileserver:

The numbers need to be changed to
Get/Chat Dialog: 9999
Send/Get Transfer:9999
Fileserver:9999

The bottom says
        Max remotely accepted dcc Sends ___
make it 10 at the most


To Speed Up Your Sends and to Receive Files a bit Faster
Do the following

Go to File Options Perform

put a check in the box that says perform on connect
inside the box either type or cute and paste the following lines
/ddeserver off
/ddeserver on
/events on
/remote on
/dcc packetsize 4096
/pdcc 22222222222222222222
/fsend on

VERY IMPORTANT


You must have each wav on your computer to hear each wav.
To play a wav, type:  /sound filename.wav
Everyone on the same channel, who has the same wav on their 'puter, who isn't already listening to another wav, will hear it when you  play it.
To REQUEST A WAV in a chat channel, type:    !nickname filename.wav
 SHORTCUT to TYPE wav commands:


Click the green button with an '/a' (your alias file) on it at the top of the mirc window and paste this line at the left edge, under the others there (don't mess with the box at the bottom) & then click OK:
/s /sound  $1.wav  < ! $+ $me  $1.wav   > *2
(Now, instead of /sound filename.wav,  the command to play wavs will be
/s filename (no .wav at the end) example
/s test
When you PING someone:  if you'd like to automatically send the person their ping time, put this line in tools, remote, events, all on one line, then click OK:
ON 1:CTCPREPLY:PING*:%pt = $ctime - $parm2 | /notice $nick  Your ping is %pt seconds.

HOT FLASH

Windows95 and WindowsNT users may need to upgrade your sounds! There is a new format called MPEG layer-3 WAV that enhances your wavs and makes them a smaller file size. Have you downloaded a wav file that wouldn't open and play? Then you probably need this file. This zipped file has everything you need to upgrade! codec.zip. If you are unable to unzip files, please visit WinZip.com
