You might want to try updating to the byond beta, latest version, it's very stable and has a ton of performance and bug fixes.
|
Thanks for responding. I have the latest Byond beta version (I also have the latest stable version). But yet sound don't work for me.
Here's some infos I can give already: - Sound work fine for everything excepted Byond games - My computer OS is Windows 10 - I'm playing with an MSI laptop - I checked the sound mixer, tried to mute and unmute dreamseaker when I'm on it, no matter what I do sound don't come back - Yes, "Downoald graphic and sound" in preferences is ticked - Byond is updated to the latest Beta version | |
Moved to BYOND Help because this isn't actually a bug; it's a sound driver issue. BYOND is usually the canary in the coal mine when it comes to sound driver problems. I would try updating your audio drivers.
| |
I tried to update my audio driver (Realtek High Definition Audio), but it was already the latest version of the driver. Don't know what I should do.
Others games (steam and non steam) audio work normally (excepted Rimworld on steam, which worked perfectly before), if that's any indication I really don't know what to do | |
I would rick click the little sound icon on the botton right of your desktop window, then hit volume mixer and see if dreamseeker is turned off.
| |
Thanks for the response. Already checked multiple times, dreamseaker is always at 100 on the sound mixer. Tried to mute/unmute it aswell. Doesn't work sadly.
It might be a driver issue so? | |
reinstall byond completely, if not try deleting your audio drives and just replugging them and let them auto update
| |
I reinstalled Byond twice, altough maybe I missed some files. I deleted the Byond folder in Programs and the Byond Folder in Documents. So I don't know if I fully uninstalled everything.
I'll try deleting my audio drives. Did it earlier but it did not seem to work. Some additional infos: I'm on a MSI gaming laptop, here are the specs: Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7300HQ CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50 GHZ RAM: 8.00 Gb (7,89 available) OS: Windows 10 Home 64 Bits Processor x64 | |
In your Realtek control panel you might look for other audio outputs to see if they're muted or on a low volume. Maybe one of them got muted for some reason.
| |
Thanks you all. Sound came back somehow.
It's highly possible that something was muted in Realtek control panel, altough I'm not sure, because after I messed up with it a bit sound came back somehow. Hope this will help others with a similar problem! | |
Sorry for the bump, but I think this is important for anyone who have a similar problem.
I found out my issue was that audio enhancements were activated automatically. Normally if you troubleshoot your computer audio, it'll prompt you to remove audio ehancement, but if you have a MSI like me it will not work, you have to open Nahimic and remove audio enhancements directly from there. Hope it'll help people's out | |
