Few things spring to mind you jampconfig file (or whatever it was called )

also you're not running any 3rd party apps like an mp3 or minimiser kill tracker which could affect it

[Fazz]

only other app i run is UU, i have tried it without it running, and sound still doesnt work, so i dont think its that

a compleate re-install doesnt effect it either, so i am compleatly stuck, what may it be to do with the mapconfig file do you know?

[jawfin]

In both your base and japlus folders rename jampconfig.cfg to jampbackup.cfg

Now run the game.

if the sound is working then do this
writeconfig sound
exec jampbackup
exec sound
That way you keep your binds but only lose your original sound and graphics settings. Close and re-run jamp and see if you still have sound. If you do all you need to do is set your graphics back to how you like it. If not then close jamp, delete both the jampconfig.cfg's and re-run jamp, and set all your binds by hand.

there are smarter ways of saving ur binds etc (eg. http://www.knights-reborn.org/forum/vie ... php?t=4590 ) , but this is the easiest way of explaining it.

i just tried a compleat re-install with new disks, but same thing, single player works fine, but still no sound on multi :S

Update drivers?
You installing from file or CD?

[Fazz]

from cd

[RVCA]

Since it only affects multiplayer, the cause is a result of a conflict with one of your mod files(pk3's). Even though you reinstalled, those files still remain. Remove them all(even ja+) from the game directory and remove your jampconfig file. Start MP and verify. If you have sound, add each mod one by one and start MP each time after till you find the mod causing the conflict, remove it and find a update or roll back to a older version if you feel it's worth it.

[Fazz]

i tried doing that when i reinstalled, and even with no ja+ or anything, there is still no sound

[RVCA]

Start MP in safe mode under all programs - game folder. If sound works, uninstall JKA, delete the game directory folder or move it elsewhere and do a fresh install(no mods, skin packs etc..)

Option 2. In MP - select setup > sound > turn off EAX Advanced HD sound. It's possible your sound card might not be compatible with this feature.

Another option - roll back your sound card driver or uninstall it. It's possible a driver update might be the cause. Heres how...

Start menu > run > type compmgmt.msc and enter > select Device Manger from the list > expand "sound,video, and game controls > right mouse click your sound card and select properties > select driver tab > select Roll Back Driver > OK and might require a reboot.

If Roll back is grayed out select uninstall instead and let windows auto install the sound driver again.

Personally I still suspect it's a mod in your base directory since the sound works fine in SP.

Find a JKA copy, maybe there is a scratch or something that prevents the CD from installing it correctly. Had a similar issue with Oblivion... had to torrent the installation disc.

[Fazz]

its definatelly not a mod, as when i unintalled/deleted everything to do with jka from my computer, i was still unable to hear anything in multiplayer.

ive tried the EAX hd sound aswell, so it isnt that.

i will try the roll back thing, and post how it goes

thanks for the help

i did think that, so i tried with a freah set of disks, still nothing

[Fazz]

ok, the roll back thing has destoryed all sound from my computer, so now i have no sound what so ever :S

[RVCA]

No sound after restart?

Find your sound card driver from your computers manufacturers web site.

If you can't find it post the manufacturer and model here. Should be easy to find.

In your case a update might be a blessing.

[Fazz]

ye.... my bad, i didnt rool back my sound card, i rolled back the thing underneath it instead... im trying to fix that atm, i used a driver scanner to look at my sound card, and apparentally its out of date, so im downloading its update atm, and will try that once i can figure out how to fix whtever i done :s

[Fazz]

Basic sound is fixed, jka still not

[RVCA]

Post your computers manufacture and model number. I'll find the right driver and link you.

[Fazz]

dont worry, somewhere along the line, it magically started working , thanks soooo much for your help RVCA

thanks to every1 else who helps aswell
