- BLU Internal Sounds: Custom sounds with 3 volume variants โ High, Medium (default), Low
- External Sound Packs: Auto-discovered from other loaded addons at startup through BLU's native bridge/discovery system. Devs can register full BLU-compatible packs via
BLU:RegisterSoundPack()or simple bridge packs viaBLU:RegisterExternalSoundPack()
For clear instructions on both supported pack types รขโฌโ simple single-file third-party packs and full BLU-compatible _low / _med / _high packs รขโฌโ see the Sounds Guidelines wiki.
-- Full BLU-compatible pack with low / medium / high variants
BLU:RegisterSoundPack("my_pack", "My Pack", {
my_pack_victory = {
name = "Victory",
file = "Interface\\AddOns\\MyPack\\media\\sounds\\victory_med.ogg",
category = "all",
source = "BLU",
},
})The wiki covers both supported approaches: BLU:RegisterExternalSoundPack() for simple single-file third-party packs and BLU:RegisterSoundPack() for full BLU-compatible 3-volume packs.

Made with โค๏ธ by the RealmGX Community Lead Developer: DonnieDice
"Make every level count with sounds that matter!"
The Kiwi Says: "Bwwiiiee."
BLU still supports no-edit auto-detect for common numbered files like custom01.ogg, but the main user-friendly flow is now built into the Sounds tab.
Recommended in-game flow:
- Open
/blu - Go to the
Soundstab - Use the
User Custom Soundspanel on the right - Click
Add Custom Sound - Type a short name like
myfileormyfile.ogg
BLU will try common AddOns locations automatically and add the first compatible match it finds.
You can also use slash commands if you prefer:
Examples:
/blu addcustom myfile
/blu addcustom myfile.ogg
/blu addcustom Interface\AddOns\myfile.ogg | My Custom Sound
If you only provide a short file name, BLU will try these common locations automatically:
Interface\AddOns\Interface\AddOns\sounds\Interface\AddOns\BLU\Interface\AddOns\BLU\sounds\Interface\AddOns\BLU\media\sounds\
The first compatible .ogg, .mp3, or .wav match gets registered and appears under User Custom Sounds in the nested dropdown and in the Sounds tab manager list.
