Sound issues (musket/music & other)

**alejandroPH** · July 25, 2012, 08:29 AM

hey first of all i'd just like to say this is a very cool mod and highly detailed graphics-wise.

sound-wise though, i think i've a problem. i can't hear the sounds of the bullets or arty going off esp if zoom in close, but otherwise everything works fine (voices, marching, music, etc). it really dampens the immersion as you'd imagine when you watch up close a unit being torn to pieces by arty but it's damn silent

any solution ? or does a reinstall seem more likely for me atm

no takers ?

does anyone else get this ?

i tried following the instructions here http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=538952 but still i can't hear the sound. is it because i play a random battle instead of a battle in the campaign ?

Try to disable the Windows sounds.

tried that too, won't work as well :\ to what exactly anyway ? there are multiple settings... (stereo, etc). well anyway it's moot cuz i've tried all. game runs smooth everything's fine except that you can't hear the gunfire/arty sounds

It seems that I can't hear the muskets fire, I have installed the 3.4.1 patch, but that didn't solve the problem.
Any help is appreciated!

a log would certainly help...

do you miss other sounds as well? if so, maybe your bg_music.pack isn't where it should be...

Forget how to log... Damn it.

I can hear other muskets sounds such as reloading though...
But I haven't noticed any other sounds missing.

open up ACW launcher > File > Go > Mod Folder and there you will find your acw_log.txt.
