Sounds not working since sound mod update

[raynor]

Take a look in your sounds directory.

One time, I accidentally installed the sounds mod pack so all the sounds were in a folder called sounds *inside* the se4\sounds directory. Once I moved them up a level, that fixed my problem. I, uh, won't tell you how long/short ago that was.

Do you see a file called se4\sounds\endturn.wav? This sound doesn't appear in components.txt. If you aren't hearing the end turn sound, then my best guess is that the location of the sounds is your main problem. They should be in se4\sounds with no subdirectories in that folder.

Hope this helps.

Add->With reference to PathFinder's comments about the ModPack: I have the ModPack installed but it is definitely getting my sounds still from the se4\sounds directory. And they work. Some of TampaGamer's sounds send shivers up my spine. They are *that* much better than the ones that shipped with the game. Okay. Sorry. Maybe too much praise for them.

Ok, this is strange... The sounds are all in the correct folders. There are no mod packs installed. The component file is in the correct folder....

The end turn file is there but no sounds. I can hear them if I play them manually.

I've tested it a few times no to no avail. It worked the first game I played before I installed the sound mod. the first game was just a random quick start game.

Since then the Last 2 games have been ones I created. No sound. I tried another quick start to see if that might be doing something... Nope, still no sounds...

I guess, I'll reinstall?

The only thing I can think of is if somehow the path is screwed up. Is the path to the sounds listed somewhere in a file so I can make sure it's right?

Thanks,

Ken
