Default Minor Sound Question

Ok, this is actually something I just noticed recently. Why do my seekers make sounds in the combat replay but not in tactical combat mode??? I am using the Tampa sound mod and the current 1.35 update for the Component.txt for sounds.

Anyone??

I've noticed that as well, but thought it was just a symptom of my grieviously outdated system and drivers. Glad to know it's not just me!

Hmmm... I think I had the same problem aswell. I think this should be posted to MM and see if it is a bug.

Someone mentioned this a little while ago also, or was it posted on a todo list by MM? Also has anyone had a problem with sound totally disappearing? Once in awhile I'll get a crash and exit back to the desktop and have to restart the game, but I have lost all sound in SEIV. It takes a reboot to get the sound back, but other programs seem to be outputing sound just fine.

Every now and then my sound totally disappears then comes back after a few turns. I haven't found out what makes it do this, it happens randomly. It's a pain.

I always found it strange that CSMs made no sound despite having a sound file specified. It wasn't until we got the combat replay and they worked there that I really began to consider it a problem.

Have you also found that ships begin to move very fast in the main window if you're playing a midi file in the background?
