Any Mortal Kombat fans out there?

I first thought about this a couple of weeks ago and thought it would be fun to have the memorable Mortal Kombat sound effects introduced to World of Warcraft PVP action. Then I actually saw a post on the forums of someone looking for a mod that did this and thinking there was already one out there somewhere. I looked high and low and couldn't find it so I threw one together myself.

Yeah, yeah, I know it was time that could have been better spent on Census, but it just sounded like too much fun, hehe.

So anyway, you can grab it here if you are interested:

http://www.curse-gaming.com/mod.php?addid=492

Basically it will play some of the more memorable sound effects from the Mortal Kombat game during PVP. For example, if you target an enemy player, you will here the "CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY", and if you initiate combat a 50 second edited version of the Mortal Kombat theme music from the movie will play. When your opponent gets below 20% health, you will hear "FINISH HIM" and if you kill them on the next hit, you'll hear "FATALITY!". If you manage to kill them with a critical hit, you'll hear "BRUTALITY".

You'll also hear the Finish Him if you are a rogue and get 5 combo points.

Anyway, it is just a fun little mod. I might or might not make additions to it, we'll see =)

Post here if you have any suggestions/comments/bugs/etc!

Looks like the EURO interface version has changed. If the interface version over there is 4222, then all you need to do is open the mkombat.toc file and change the top line to:

## Interface: 4222

Hi again,

I tried, and now there are serval things i don't understand: latest patch is 1.2.4(4222) (Release-Protection-Enabled) <-- got this from the under-left corner of my game and bnupdate.log. The #interface line of all my mods is marked with 4216. all mods work fine with this, but when i change it to 4222 the game says bad version. Is there any step i do wrong ?

thx bro

(sorry for my sloppy english)

I tried to set both versions, /mkombat still works but no sounds

Your add on is awesome, but the music only seems to start in about 1 of every 10 battles I get in. Anyway to make it go everytime?

Post by **Rollie** » Mon Feb 28, 2005 3:10 pm

It is currently set to not play more than once in a 10 minute period. If you want to change this, open up the MKombat.lua file in the World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\MKombat directory.

Go to line 118 or find the following bit of code:

Code: Select all

if&#40; GetTime&#40;&#41; - lastMusicPlay > 600 &#41; then

And change it to something like 60 instead of 600. Don't remove this check altogether as it will cause the music to play and overlap if you switch targets. If you change it to 60, it will play at most 1 time per 60 seconds.

Hi Rollie,

I think i got the answer for my problem, testet it in pvm only. is there any way to enable it for pvm?

Post by **Rollie** » Mon Feb 28, 2005 4:42 pm

That would do it! It would require quite a few changes to make it work for PVE and not totally spam you with sound effects, hehe. I'll probably make a version that works for PVE eventually, but for now, it's PVP and duel only.

hi, awesome addon i love it!
but i have a few questions, first of them is if i got 5 combo point i do here the "finish him" sound truck but i was wondering when u soupuse to hear the "fatality" one i understand it comes if u kill him the next kill but how does it count it? with a normal attack or a spical attack?

another question is the mortal kombat theme song play only when u pvp?

Post by **Rollie** » Thu Mar 03, 2005 9:08 am

Yes, it only plays when you PVP. And it should say FATALITY if you kill the player in 1 shot, the very next shot after getting a FINISH HIM.

CoolDog · Post by **CoolDog** » Thu Mar 03, 2005 7:16 pm

but that is impoosible for a rouge since we got the regular attacking going on. and another thing is there any way u can increase the volume of these saying without increasing the overall volume?

While I admit this is totally badass for PvP (and I intend on downloading this NOW), I think it also has merits for PvE combat: Specifially, the "FINISH HIM!" cue at 20% of a mob's health. That would be a godsend for Warriors (YOU CAN USE EXECUTE NOW, KK?) and hell, I think it'd be cool for me as a hunter, too. "FINISH HIM!" 'kk, use Aimed Shot for teh crit/win'

I want to enhance this mod with the ability for you to choose to have it work in just PVP or in all instances (including PVE). I also want to make some further customization options. Just have to find the time, hehe.

With the new update, it doesn't work anymore.

Post by **Rollie** » Wed Mar 23, 2005 10:03 pm

It does if you get the latest version or make the Interface Version number change in the toc file =)

I had a version that it actually worked in combat, but now.. bleh - Some random off-brand.
