I didn't connect any sound devices while the game was running, it isn't muted, volume is set right(the master volume and whatever volume + and - controls)
And it doesn't fix itself after a restart of both he game and computer.

dawn sphinx
#

Seems windows doesn't detect it?

Hmmm

crude rapids

I mean now I have an excuse to listen to music instead of listening to pings

#

all i know is the last time i played it (few weeks) it was fine but when i came back (without changing anything, same headphones as well) audio died

dawn sphinx
#

also it says a whole bunch of load sound errors

#

Are you sure about that?
Cause the sound loading error appears when this happens

vocal osprey
#

sounds like the whole audio library dies regardless

#

that's certainly a weird one

dawn sphinx
#

same even if i don't connect any before launching

#

guess i reinstall it? (once i find the settings folder that is)

vocal osprey
#

springsettings.cfg and it's backup first, then try again

#

if that doesn't work, also LuaUI and LuaMenu

dawn sphinx
#

uhh gonna do that tomorrow (100% not bc i am angry at my losing spree of about 8 games now in a row)

#

11pm zzzzz

dawn sphinx
#

uhh apparently it was the settings

#

but still doesn't explain the error messages

#

guess i close to post?

#

I mean it says this: Sound = 0 (line 101)

#

but i can't find anywhere to change that

#

and the backspace that is "toggle mute" doesn't change anything (with the previous settings)

#

Soo i found something else

#

With my previous settings (sound set to 0 in the code), pressing backspace is not a toggle

#

cus the message that pops up is only Mute enabled

#

No disabled

#

after i change it to 1 (manually in settings) then backspace lets me toggle mute and unmute

#

press backspace multiple times, still on enabled (doesn't show disabled message nor does it set to enable)

#

btw does anybody know what sets sound = 0 in game?

dawn sphinx

#

hmmm

#

i can greep through the repo for any instances of "sound"

#

nothing

#

neither in game or lobby

#

none of the ingame audio settings set "sound" to 1 or 0 or anything

#

so... engine?

#

or maybe the keybind itself sets that

#

it's an engine keybind after all

dawn sphinx
#

maybe from a previous version?

dawn sphinx

#

ok so what if

#

sound 0 makes the audio lib not initialise at all

#

but in runtime it's already initialised

#

so basically... maybe if you close the game muted, it's perma dead xD

#

solution to that would be setting it to 1 everytime you start the game...

#

which would be easy to do

#

but it would be surprising that we only learn about it now

#

can we just remove the Mute keybind and instead just tell people to drag the volume slider down to 0?

#

not to mention why the fuck is the mute keybind at Backspace?

wild python
#

I will troll people telling them to mute and close the game TrollDespair

vocal osprey
#

But I might be onto something

dawn sphinx
#

or just make the backspace drag the volume slider to 0

#

you want me to try?

#

quick question, is the settings in the file different depending on the game setting? not chaning the numbers(

vocal osprey
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

dawn sphinx
#

sounds about right

#

ami going nuts?

#

first the sound was at line 101

#

now it moved to 102

#

@vocal osprey Does the settings file change? cus the sound option went poof

#

let's just asume i had a messed up game save and the end :D

vocal osprey
dawn sphinx
#

i am going to pretent i understand that :D

vocal osprey
#

if sound = 0 is default for the engine, if you add sound = 0, it will just remove that from the config

@dawn sphinx did u fixed it?
