Custom Sound Notification

Custom Sound Action

The Custom Sound action plays a local audio file from your computer. Use this when you want a specific sound that is not available as an in-game sound effect — such as a custom alarm, a voice recording, or a downloaded clip.

Fields

File Path

The full path to the audio file on your computer. Supported formats: .wav, .mp3.

Click the folder icon to open a file browser, or type the path directly. Supports capture group substitution with $1, $2, etc. — this allows the file path to be built dynamically from trigger values.

Dynamic path example: if your alert captures a crop name as $1, you could set the path to C:\sounds\$1.wav and have a different audio file play for each crop.

Volume

A value from 0 (silent) to 10 (maximum).

Repeat Duration (ms)

How long to loop the sound. Set to 0 to play the file once. Set to a positive value (in milliseconds) to loop for that duration before stopping.

Notes

• If the file is not found, the action silently fails (no error message is shown in-game). Double-check the path if the sound does not play.
• For dynamic file paths using capture groups, see Capture Groups for the technique of using a placeholder path to open the file browser.
• For built-in OSRS sounds, use In-Game Sound Effect instead.
