No Sound or Music
 

As of this morning I have been unable to hear any sound or music from the game. I double checked the Options both in the Main Menu and in the OptionsEditor.exe, I double checked that Sound=True in the eqclinent.ini, I restarted multiple times, I tried a fresh install, and I made sure my drivers were up to date all to no avail.

When I open the Volume Mixer for Windows, I see the game as "Name Not Available" and the green bar is moving up and down like there should be sound playing, but nothing comes out of the speakers.

Has anyone else experienced this problem and come up with a fix, or have any idea what could be causing the problem?

Thanks

Update: Tried WinEQ2 now, and still no luck. Out of ideas.

Which volume mixer are you using? The windows one? Try downloading one that is recommended by the team. I use the one here:

So I was just using the Windows one. I downloaded VirtualMidiSynth. I got some music back while in game, like the general atmosphere music.

No loading screen music and strangely enough no combat music. Sound effects like monster noises, bag opening noises, etc. are still completely absent.

same issue here. no in game sound. let me know if you figure it out

Did you add the loading music and combat music to your EQ folder like the set up guide states?

ftfy

that shouldnt make a difference if he's not hearing bags opening

I agree. I am trying to work on one problem at a time my friend!

Reinstalled and I’m good. OPi recommend reinstalling. I found a video on YouTube that makes installing roughly 10-15 min

Pro tip: Once you have a known good install, make a copy of it. Any problems, back up your screenshots and log files and delete everything and copy it over, then apply latest p99 patch and done.
