Title: Can't get SFX when I play on 7th Heaven mod manager.
Post by: Grimm_Seti on 2021-11-21 04:41:10
Hello everyone! My name is Grimm and I am new to this forum.

I have just recently installed 7th Heaven on my laptop and downloaded the Ninostyle HD Chibi mods and the Remako mods. I have also replaced the music with Final Fantim's music.

I got all these mods working, but when I tested the game, it had no sound effects. I looked around on the internet and have not found a fix for this issue or any advice. Who know, maybe I missed it? I DID look pretty hard though.

I decided instead to just create an account on Qhimm and ask you guys if any of you could help me with this problem. Does anybody have any advice? Is this the appropriate forum or subforum?

Please pardon me if I am in the inappropriate place for this question.

Thank you all in advance for your assistance!

Inside your settings/game driver. Go to the advanced tab and change the SFX dropdown to Originalaudio.dat.
That should do it for ya

If you have FF7 on Steam, you can download and install 7th Heaven 2.0 to mod the game very easily.

Hi Grimm! Check your audio settings in 7th Heaven and make sure sound effects (SFX) are enabled. Also verify your FF7 sound driver is set to “FFNx” and not muted in Windows. Reinstalling or updating FFNx often fixes missing SFX issues.

Hello there,
Over the past few days I’ve been setting up a new modded playthrough of Final Fantasy VII. I completed my first installation yesterday with the mods I wanted to try out, but I’ve run into a problem: I have no SFX at all — no menu sounds, no battle sounds, and no world map sounds. Musics, however, are ok.

I spent quite a while searching last night and again this morning, but most of the threads I found are related to older versions of 7th Heaven. I also tried changing various configuration options and edited the FFNx.toml.tmp file (I couldn’t find a version without the .tmp extension).

I’m currently using the latest versions:

7th Heaven 4.4

FFNx 1.23

I’ve attached my active mod list below.

I’m assuming I must have missed something in the 7th Heaven configuration, but I haven’t been able to figure out what. If anyone has some insight or suggestions, I’d be really grateful.

Thanks in advance!
