damici Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I just noticed that I can't get any weapons sounds for U.S. heavy weapons or any OpFor weapons. Has anyone else had this problem or know how I can fix this? I've been playing the TF Thunder campaign but I have all the modules. The problem only started recently I haven't played in about 5 days or so but last time I played it worked fine. Also there is ambient sounds, you can hear the bullets whiz by and can hear the units reloading just no reports from the weapons themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damici Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 More info: the Mk19 sounds fine, M240B no sound m4's are fine all opfor weapons are "muted" M2's are also. I'm going to check on opfor armor and light armored vehicles next and will post if they are working properly or not. alright Tanks and bmp cannon sounds are on their mg's aren't. combatants and fighters also are out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Have you applied any sound mods to your installation or possibly any other mods ? If so, you may want to temporarily remove them and see if that helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schrullenhaft Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 How close is your view when you're listening to the weapons. It's quite possible that the sounds may disappear if they are not within a direct cone/arc of your view. I'm not seeing anything in the patches which mentions heavy weapons sounds. Typically a patch that a lot of people miss when they're installing the game is the 1.10, depending on which modules and in what sort of 'bundles' they purchased them in. However even if you didn't patch the game in the proper order during installation (you would probably see another issue which is much more evident), it still wouldnt' explain how this problem wasn't present 5 days ago and now is. There's no setting that I'm aware of that turns off the sounds for particular elements within the game. It's either 'all' or 'none' option for sound. The only way this may not be completely true is if your data .BRZ file that holds the sound for heavy weapons is somehow missing that file or it has been modified. If it was missing I don't know if CMSF would come up with an error or not (quite possibly it would). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damici Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 I've been right up on the units to quite a bit away still no sound. I bought the 3 for 2 bundle package of mods just about a month ago and they installed automatically when I downloaded them so If they were installed in the wrong order then they were set up in the wrong order but I don't think that is the problem as you said. Idk if the .BRZ file is damaged or missing I've opened the data files but don't know which one is which. The only thing i can think of that might be an error or problem is when it starts up it's just a solid white screen then the game options pop up and the background goes normal. Other than that it's just the sound. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 When it comes to the bundles, some people do NOT patch their CMSF install to 1.10 BEFORE installing the bundle. The most obvious problem with this is that you'll probably see black terrain tiles. What ends up missing is the 'Version 110.brz' file. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damici Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 I uninstalled my CMSF reinstalled it patched it to v1.10 then reinstalled the mod bundle. Still no sound. Version 110.brz is on there. The reload sounds work fine the bullets going by you can hear along with their impact. But opfor small arms,mg's, cannons do not produce any sound. Neither do U.S. Mg's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damici Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 I ran it as administrator and got all sounds. I only played the training campaign but all seems to be working fine. so I'll play play the other campaigns and some scenarios and will keep you posted of any thing that I notice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
