That did it thanks for the help :D

[yasmani19]

shanef good that you work

[abbasbsp]

good work
installed

[basilrath]

Thanx mark "installed" :)

[scrap19]

Thanks for the mod....How do you eliminate the sound and just have the image appear?

[basilrath]

you can edit the swf

[scrap19]

i just downloaded a free program to edit these files, any idea where to look to find that voice option?

[scrap19]

this is what I see in the file...do I need to change any of this, if so to what?

if (PlaySound eq 0)
{
tellTarget("/sound")
{
gotoAndStop("nosound");
tellTarget("")
{
} // End of TellTarget
} // End of TellTarget
} // end if

[basilrath]

If you have a decompiler then you can do it via removing the "voice over" in cs3.

If not then i have edited the flv and attatched the swf with target to private.php being

www.yourboard.com/private.php

hope this helps

[scrap19]

Thank you sir!!!

[barcena]

Can I use another image other than the mailbox?
Also, I don't want any sounds, people maybe at work.

Can you help me with the code and point me where to change the image path?.

Thanks.

[basilrath]

you can use an image but would not get the "animation" as in the moving onto the screen etc but yes it can be done - the alternative is to use another flash animation without voice or sound etc.

I am actually working on some newer mailbox animations but have been busy so just a time thing. :)

[ladycroft]

hello
I loaded the swf file without sound here ... the picture I have, but if I then click on the picture I get error-page ne ... the right path ... not because the image file, I have given the correct path ... it may be that the flash-file-path is not the same as mine? My path starts with / vb /....

can someone help?

[abbasbsp]

Congrats for this great animation! It really makes the forum more vivid and beatiful.

But I have three requests from the designer if possible!

* The first please is two create two new swf files the battler and letter box for vBulletin path: vBulletin/private.php

* The other request is the designer to attach the fla file for the battler animation and why not create more animations about private messages

* My third request is if possible the designer to post a very quick tutorial (plain txt or with photos to describe the way to change the path url of the swf files using the adobe flash or any other similar programme. In that way anybody could change the swf files for his/her own forum without annoysing the designer in the future for this task. I guess the whole task would be some clicks process and not sth very difficult or complicated to learn but I may be wrong. I am totally newbie to flash files.

I don't know if my requests can be fulfilled but one more time many thanks to the designer for this great animation.

Regards!

[basilrath]

I will do as asked in the next day or so

Regards
Dave

[Mikevet1984]

One million thanks, mate!

Regards!

[top dogs 360]

You have 2 versions but 5 things to download. Can someone clear this up for me? I had the mailbox one set up correctly for a few months now. I tried to upgrade to the msn one and I had it working (you could see the image) execpt the link to the actual PM went to a 404 page. I tried to mess around to no avail.

I just didn't see clear enough directions on the 1st post on what to put where I suppose, and what the differences of the 5 zips are.

[Kingdombuilder]

[doctorsexy]

Thanks...

[just.b.jealous]

Another method,..

Add the following code to the bottom of your "footer" template:

<!-- You Got Mail -->
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">
<a href="private.php" style="display:scroll;position:fixed;bottom:25px;right:-5px;" title="You have new messages!">
<img src="images/misc/got_mail.gif">
</a>
</vb:if>
<!-- You Got Mail -->


Download any animated GIF and rename it to "got_mail.gif" and upload it to "images/misc"..

[basilrath]

Edit template - FORUMHOME

Find

Upload - the relevant swf to your forum root

remember to change the path to your swf

[RC-Central]

Ok, I just loaded the file into my root but what do I change the code for "/path-to-your/you-got-mail.swf" ? :confused:

[basilrath]

If your forums are

http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf

or
/you-got-mail.swf

then you can put that line of code in

[RC-Central]

If your forums are

Ok, I got the animation to work and it has the sound of the mailbox, but no "you've got mail".

[basilrath]

<a href="http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf" target="_blank">http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf</a>

[bremereric]

Alright Dave I will give it a try tonight.Okay I uploaded the new you-got-mail.swf to the aspenandvolare root folder. It did not work and this is what I noticed. With a new message the forum will load and then you will see the spinning wheel in the window tab. At the bottom of the window you will see the progress bars get up to but never pass the four bars. With no new message the forum will load fast and will complete within a few seconds. I had the code not installed in one of forum styles and I verified the forum would load complete even with a private message notification. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Eric

yes
set this...data="/path-to-your/you-got-mail.swf"

and this....<param name="movie" value="/path-to-your/you-got-mail.swf" />

to the right path ..

should look like this data="http://www.yoursite/you-got-mail.swf

and this <param name="movie" value="http://www.yoursite/you-got-mail.swf" />

Got it working using Flash Decompiler 4 by Trillix. Just had to change the path in the .swf file to match my path. Nice mod BTW.

[basilrath]

Edited swf for user vetsols ...............

This is directed to your private.php without sub forums and with forum in root:

[vetsols]

Thank you sir. Sorry for the last PM. I should have looked here first. Thank you!

UPDATE: The script AND flash WORKS GREAT on VB 4.2.0PL2!
Great job and thanks again!

[ejbreeze]

Could you make one up for the you-got-mail.swf ?

testsite/private.php

Thanks. Great Mod.

[ejbreeze]

Never mind with my request. I found a free swf editor at http://www.swixkit.com/ Download it then open up your swf file and do a find for "forum". Replace all three place where you find it with your path.

[ar15dcm]

Can this be placed just below the toplinks?

[darkdragon2889]

4.2.1 confirmed work but is unclickable if you add
<a href="http://site/private.php"> and </a> to final part still not work no link only pop up
