Getting sound effects to work...
Surf:
--- Quote from: JacksSmirkingRevenge on January 09, 2012, 08:48:33 am ---I have been messing around trying to figure out how to get the sound effects to work. Its the minor sound effects that I'm not hearing for example weapons firing, wind blowing, clicking, ect.
How do I fix this? Or is this a bug at the moment?

It's a bug. So far, most of the people have atleast working soundeffects, but you seem to have the same problem as me where there are not even soundeffects played. Could you maybe post your hardware configuration, or do you have some external soundcard or something like that? I'm using such a device and I think it *may* have something to do with it. Just a shot in the blue though. :/

When you say hardware config, do you mean like a DirectX Diagnostics?

I was a bit ambigious, I rather meant your soundcard and (eventual) external sound devices or such. I have a TASCAM US-144 ( a recording device )and sometimes it causes games to act weird in terms of sound and music. That's why I thought you might have the same configuration. ;)

I actually don't know what type of sound card I have. This might show it. I do get sound to play on the menu screen where the updates shown but other than that nothing. When I first logged on I had old 50's music playing in the background of NCR but that only happened that one time.
Sound info is in spoiler.

One question to the people who have the No Soundeffects/Music problem - what platform are you using, Win XP (what version of the service pack), Vista, Win7 etc? Would be good to know for troubleshooting...
