[Fixed] Some sounds are very low volume

[Milkdrop 278]

Hello,

 

when walking the sound of footsteps is normal, weather is also normal.

But when I fight a Spider or Hell Hound (I assume it goes for everything I could fight) or when I level the ground / dig in general the sounds for that are very low volume, hardly audible even with the ingame Sound put to max and my PCs volume on 100%.

Haven't tried other actions yet.

 

I tried Hardware and Software Sound Engine, no change.

I tried Preview and Stable Client, no change on either.

 

Out of ideas what else to try. ?

Tried verifying the game files via the launcher, tinkering with my PC settings (though no other app was affected so eh) - nothing helped.

 

Fix:

Had to reinstall the game, deleting every trace of Wurm in Java and temp files etc. - sound is now back to normal.

 

No real clue what could have triggered this odd behavior of selected sounds being super silent, sorry. ?

This should be fixed with the recent client update which affected lights as well.   https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/166963-update-18dec18/

 

It was originally fixed with the stable client then later with the preview client.
