    Default No Battle Sounds, music on battle map and no speech

    Hi just what the title says i have reinstalled and uninstalled both my MTW 2 and kingdoms games and now get no music or sound affects during battle and no voice or speech when i click on any character or agent on the campaign map.

    As a matter of fact i have no music on the main menu but have music while on the campaign map. It is perplexing to say the least.

    I never encountered such a problem before can anyone please tell me what may be wrong with my game?I will Rep for anyone who can offer me a solution to my problem.Thank you so much in Advance. Regards Logik....

    I am assuming you mean original game, no mods. In the sound folder, delete events.idx and event.dat and let the game regenerate them. This should cure it.

    Yes is the original game.

    How would the game regenerate them?

    Would i have to reinstall the whole thing again after i delete the files you suggested?

    I'll do what you have suggested Thanks...Rep+

    You just delete that file and reboot the game. Have you recently updated your sound drivers? This recently happened to me after doing that.

    No haven't updated it as far as i know.But i'll try was has been suggested to me and get back to you guys.I hope you mean all i would have to do is restart my pc or just restart a new campaign?


    Edit: I deleted the suggested files and restarted my pc and nothing is corrected and also tried a new campaign and also nothing. All i had to do is delete the events idx and events dat right just those two?

    I was told i am to reboot the game does that mean that i have to reinsall the whole thing in order for the files to be regenerated and the problem to be fixed?

    Sorry for the million questions i am just a little confused by the process as i am only good at modding the actual games but not the little techinical stuff like the sound etc.

    Again thank you for your patience and help regarding this issue.Regards Logik....

    No you don't have to reinstall the game. in your medievl2.preferences.cfg, under [audio], should be enable = 1. If not, make it that way and make the file read-only.

    Maybe you have something wrong in your data/sounds folder. Have you edited anything in there?

    No not as far as i am concerned.I just never have had this issue before.One would think that after reinstalling the game the problem would be fixed but its not and is very frustrating to say the least.

    Have you tried any other factions besides Scotland? After reinstalling, did you try the game before reinstalling the mod?

    Yes to both questions.I even checked the original game before i reinstalled kingdoms and still have the same problem.I just wonder if it is my pc but mines is brand new. I know it updates itself every time there are new updates after i give the ok as i have put it on that setting do you think maybe that has something to do with it?Maybe it updated something to do with my sounds that maybe i didn't realize and that could be the problem.Just a theory what do you guys think?

    Maybe I'm missing something in this now but if you have voices and other sounds on the campaign map you should have voices a nd sound on the battle map. There is a section for nothing but the different battle music types and broken into different faction types.

    If you have campaign music and voices, your computer drivers are okay. Battle music and voices would be okay.

    If you have battle music before installing the mod then the mod did something to the battle music files.

    Can you fill in the gaps? I'd love to help. I did on one computer set the game's ingame sound default to Miles 2d. It cloudn't handle 3d or anything to do with Sound Blaster.

    Curious if anyone else has encountered this problem? I noticed it a few days ago, and it's begun to bug me.

    Okay, I defiently found the problem. But not the why.

    Something clearly cleaned my VFX and Voice files somehow. They are all 1KB in my sounds directory. I have no idea what caused it though.

    I copied the Sound files over from my Medieval disks. They might not be patched, but eh, it's working so far, and if it could run with no sounds, it should be able to work with only some.

    Thereare some factions in vanilla that do not have these sounds and if the mod is using vanilla sounds, this would be the reason.

    It actually was a corrupt copy of Med 2 I made and didn't know was corrupt. I extracted the files of the mod (I was having trouble with sounds) into the copy of Med 2 that I know worked fine and there you have it...I have sound for the mod...cheers!
