Sound Issue in MC

Post by RUPD3658 »

I am playing MCLV and several times during the briefing screen it says that I am listening to music or a radio broadcast. I am not hearing any of these.

I have music and sounds on and have no problems during the game itself. Any ideas?

I am using the version (8.2) that came with the General's Edition. Are there more recent patches available?

I just experienced a crash mid turn that corrupted the auto save file. Ten scenarios and 2 weeks game time lost.

Just my 2 cents: Instead of releasing a V8.4, a Mega Cam engine fix might have been of more value (for MG).[8|]

Not every scenario has these sound files. Do you have all the music/sound stuff in Preferences screen set on?[&:]

Alas, I too have the same problem - no sound on the briefing screens for any of the mega campaigns. I went in to the sound files included in the mega campaigns and all the files are there, they work great when accessed and played that way. It is too bad that they don't play as they were designed to - the mission briefing via radio and the background radio broadcasts/music would add a lot of atmosphere to an already great product.

Anyone have any ideas how to get the audio files to play as designed? Same thing happens in Watchtower.

This is probably an easy fix, as the audio file of the German song included in "Das Reich" works great.

Thanks

Get the patches for the MC only, they should fix your problem.

Thanks Chief - unfortunately, after a search of the web I can't seem to find the right MC only patch. Do you have a link? Thanks.
