Not a problem! Platinum sounds for OSX?

Hi,

This is a strange one for this board as it's not a problem! I was always a fan of the "platinum sounds" in Mac OS 9, this was found in the control panals under either themes or sounds and it made all kinds of noises while doing actions such as scrolling finder windows and dragging and dropping files etc. I was wondering if this neat feature is available for OS X?

Thanks.

I replied to this earlier in Discussions-Installation and Setup

Xounds (Unsanity) has its on sounds. If you want the Platinum sounds, you have to save the Platinum Sounds folder in OS9. Xounds will migrate it to the Xounds folder in OSX. It's a great haxie. I have been using it since November 2002 on 2 computers.

Worked for me 10.2 - 10.3.9 perfectly

Now it's garbage, no matter how I uninstall, reboot, reinstall, manhandle, clean, and generally hack around with it: IT DOESN"T WORK in Tiger.

Somehow, in bashing around Xounds, I have managed to delete all my Platinum Sounds.

Is there somewhere I can download this?

(It's not in my OS9 Appearances folder any more either).
