Weird sound bug

Post by Jaeger »

Today I acquired an annoying sound bug. In the first iteration of the bug, I would start by selecting a unit, and then if I selected another unit after it (rather than clicking the ground) the voice of the second unit (or building) would sound really muffled, or as if it was underwater. This is the way that I saw would reproduce it 100% of the time, but the bug may have had other triggers too. I uninstalled the patch and then the game, and then I reinstalled the game and then the patch. Now I cannot produce the same bug 100% of the time by switching units (though it's still at a high percentage), but I have noticed that when I click my explorer to walk somewhere sometimes it has the normal voice, and others it has the muffled voice. I should mention that I was testing the bug I was mostly switching between the explorer and the TC, but this happens with other units too.

I have done nothing to change my game, I first noticed this bug today when I played my tournament game on Yukon (I had to download the map in-game from someone).



Does anyone else have this bug? Does anyone know how to fix it?

I would check all connections, maybe try a different audio cable ... you can try to disable and re enable audio adapter in device manager...

Also this thread should be moved to tech support section

I'm using a laptop with built in speakers. The audio seems fine outside of AOE, and I don't think it would be a hardware issue since I was able to replicate it the way I did.

This is where threads come to die. It's why I posted in AOE general, this forum is not even available in the sidebar.
