Sound Bug Fix

Post by DivineFire »

Edit: My fix didn't seem to work for other people, refer to Eaglemut's post in this thread for one that might actually work.

lol, all it does is shipping some sound configuration files for units. Funnily it also contains a design setup file for the Church and the Arsenal. Care to explain what this mod is supposed to fix?

Yeah I have no idea why it edits the files it does, they didn't make sense to me either, but it works 100% and doesn't fuck with anything.

Awesome! Thanks for posting, glad I decided to check in this sub forum. I get sound bug like every 2-3 games and it is so annoying.

So where exactly do you put these? I put the files in the folders with the same names but still had sound bug today.

Not sure this is a confirmed fix. From what I see I'm like 10% on it being a fix. At the same time I think divine wouldn't post it without a reason :D. So I'm conflicted.

When I get back I'll give it a shot

Just paste what's in the zip file in your install directory, it will merge with the appropriate folders and overwrite certain files. So for steam it would be the "bin" directory.

I too find this to be important to my gameplay. Gotta keep that fertility rate up.

Really, just having seen the type and low amount of files, it doesn't look like an effective bug fix to me. I know what these files are used for and I see little sense in them being able to fix the issue.

Same. Might be good to close the topic to prevent confusion.

Sooo, ehhh, it's been a year. Can anyone confirm whether this fixes the sound bug or not? Personally I don't have the sound bug in the first place, therefore I am unable to test it.
The comment from @n0eL suggests it doesn't work, can you confirm? We shouldn't have this thread pinned if it doesn't actually do anything.

Wow how did I not know about this. 5 months of frustration and there was a fix all along.

On the other hand only one person has confirmed this as a fix. I won't get my hopes up.

Edit: Can confirm that this fix DOESN'T work :(

Just came across a possible fix: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... 94#1403388
Doesn't seem so far fetched that this would resolve the issue.

It should be actually sufficient to just completely disable music sound in your game settings. I do have it disabled, so I would assume that's the reason I am not experiencing this sound bug. It all makes sense now!

Feel free to try it out and share your results.
