Lack of sounds
« on: 2012-05-30 16:47:16 »
Hello everyone,

new to the forums, but have been reading here for about a week or so now.  I've installed several of these mods and am very happy to see all the hard work and effort you all have put in to these, kudos to you all!

My question will probably seem a bit noobish, but it's been bugging me since last night.  It seems my sound effects for various things are almost non existent.. ie: casting a spell/summon, there's no sound effect to indicate it's being cast and no sound effects for when the spell/summon hits.. i think the same is happening for physical attacks as well.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and again, kudos to you all for undertaking such a project of epicness xD

Q:Why is there no sound in the game?  Why is the music playing from a different sound device than the game sounds?
A:You need to configure the sound and/or MIDI device.
  Run .\FF7Config.exe as Administrator
  In the SOUND tab, select the 'Sound Driver'
  In the MIDI tab, select the 'MIDI Driver' and the 'MIDI Data'
  Click OK to save the settings
  Open the Volume Mixer
  Adjust the volume for the playback device, applications and FF7 executable

Sry, I should have elaborated a bit more I s'pose... I do have sound effects for when the cursor is being moved, but any sound effect during battle such as phsical attacks or spells/summons don't seem to come up at all.  My driver is set to what it should be and sounds aren't muted at all..  it's a tiny aspect I noticed last night that didn't get much chance to really test out today as of yet.  I'm not using any mods for audio in any way.  My driver works fine and has before when I used the Ultima version and even vanilla install of ff7.. jus tnot sure where my sound effects in battle went  :|

hahahaha roflfail

forgot to actually use the Yamaha midi data driver dealy >.<

works as it should now with all these nice fancy addons.  Again kudos to you all for such great work on an old "classic" game such as this :)

Only unfortunate thing is that my pc can't handle the best of it, so, I'm limited to making that game look really awesome instead of exceptionally awesome :P
