Re: Game sounds only appear once after patch

To let you know if i was able to fix it: yes, apparently.

I uninstalled all the AMD driver suite. Then i tried to reinstall the newest version (14.12), but that didnt work. I got an error "installation package failure". After some investigation on google i found out that this issue had to do with missing .NET, so I also installed the newest .NET framework. But installing the CCC package still did not work. Three hours later i decided just to install the old CCC package i used before, and voilá, the installation finished.
Furthermore, the sound issues in FAF are gone. This is really weird. I still dont know what the problem was but anyway, it looks like I can go on playing for now.

Thanks for your help guys.

Just a thought, if you have recently updated any drivers, especially Nvidia hardware, make sure to restart your computer. Nvidia drivers tend to not ask to restart the PC, so many times people forget with notebook computers because they put them in hibernation. Symptoms that I have seen for such just a case it some sounds to not play in the game.

Hey Atlas,

Your game is spitting out a bunch of DirectX errors, so something must be wrong with your driver setup -- this couldn't be caused by the patch. Can you try and reinstall your DirectX?

Game sounds only appear once after patch

2015-04-06T21:45:12+02:00

Hi guys,

the new patch today made me huge issues with the game sounds.

I can hear all the different sounds only for one time.
This affects the music, after one title there is no music anymore.
It also affects the FX sounds. For example if i click on a unit, i can hear the typical sound when you click on this unit. But if i click again on the same unit, there is no specific unit-selection-sound anymore. Furthermore, i can hear other sounds like shooting, units moving or exploding only once. I even can hear each of the three different pings or the marker only for one time.

To say it in shorter words: every single sound effect is only played for one single time.

So if the game goes on for some minutes and every possible sound effect is beeing played, my game is completely silent. As you can imagine, there is no fun to play. Also, it is quite hard because you dont hear any enemies attacking you ...

I made a very short sandbox game for the game.log. It appears on every single game since i got the new patch today.

The problem appears on 5.1 sound and stereo, too - it does'nt matter.

game.log

forever.log

Please help me, I can't play like this.

Greetings, Atlas
