GameForming=NEWGAME1 ; a sound ID registered in SOUND.INI

The sound plays in the LAN game list that a player sees before joining a match. It marks a game becoming joinable in either of two ways:

  • a listed game reopens after having been closed;
  • a game appears on the list for the first time, already open.

A game that first appears closed is added to the list without the sound. A matching line appears in the chat panel with each sound.

A game’s host reports these changes when it answers the game queries sent by the list. The sound plays only until the player has been confirmed into a game.
