Adlersch Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 I've read and tried all bug report methods, and so I've come to the conclusion that my computer is hopelessly idiotic. And as such, since I have deleted, redownloaded, and otherwise recreated my resources folder, I'd dearly like my Technic sounds back. Things I have tried: Reinstalling the launcher after removing it completely from my system (Save for backups of worlds) Deleting my resources folder so Technic 'borrows' it from vanilla Redownloading non-launcher vanilla (Works there) Copy/Pasting my resources folder from non-launcher vanilla, where the sounds work Changing my RAM usage from 1.5 GB to 1 GB (Better FPS I've noticed, but still no sound) Waiting as Minecraft downloads the sounds 'on the fly,' to no avail. After all this effort, I've essentially given up. I'd appreciate sounds, at least vanilla sounds, so that I can hear mobs, my footsteps, the little things that made Minecraft magical and immersive - things that I need in order to experience immersion and, after losing them, things I need to regain any serious interest in the Technic Pack or Minecraft. So my real question is, can someone toss me a copy of their 'resources' folder? Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't. Maybe we'll just cobble together a new solution that will work so that when someone posts a bug report on this we can answer it accurately (As I've seen no common working solutions to this issue as of yet).

Jorcer Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Wait, did you do something with MATMOS? I'm not sure if it affects all sounds or only the ones it adds but f7 (IIRC) will turn it off and another key will turn the volume down. Quote
Adlersch Posted September 22, 2012 Author Posted September 22, 2012 Holding F7 and looking up or down will change the volume, tapping F7 toggles it on/off. MATMOS does nothing, as I currently have no resources folder. Quote
Jorcer Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Ahh I see, just thought I would suggest it. I could give you my resources folder, do you have a preferred method of delivery? Quote

Adlersch Posted September 22, 2012 Author Posted September 22, 2012 Why did you post this in the arcade section? Where else would I post this? Launcher bugs? This isn't a bug report, this isn't a 'general Minecraft' problem (It works in vanilla) and it's not specific to any modded Minecraft (ie. Tekkit/Technic/Hack/Mine...). Plus I'm not asking for a guide on something (Encyclopedia Technica), so it'd either fit here (As gameplay and game-related discussion) or Off-Topic. Quote
Xylord Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 It's pretty heavy (53MB), so it'll take a while to upload. I'll post the link when it's up. Also, just to be sure, it's mainly the minecraft.jar that is illegal to distribution, right? I wouldn't want to go against any piracy rules. Quote

No need to bother, Jorcer has already kindly sent me his resources folder. If that doesn't work, then sending me a working folder obviously isn't the answer. Quote
Ashzification Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Did it work? I've seen a few reports of people having sound problems, and I'm sure they'd love to know :) Quote
Adlersch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 No luck - it simply will not work for whatever reason. It's frustrating and makes it difficult to keep an interest in Minecraft if I can't enjoy the immersion of sound. Quote

Wait, even if you literally delete the techniclauncher folder (backinp up worlds) and you reinstall everything from scratch, it wont work, but it does with vanilla MC? This make no sense to me...

Adlersch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 Removing Matmos_Packaged.zip from the mods folder works for me. I'll try this and report back if it works. Edit: @ Xylord, yup. Quote
Xylord Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Hopefully andre'w idea will work, but if it doesn't, the only thing I could think about is some audio card problem? Maybe it recognizes MC but not Technic, or something like that? It's just a theory based on how video cards sometimes forget about technic but not MC. Quote
Adlersch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 It worked before an update of some sort (Can't remember atm, don't really care all too much), but doesn't now. In any case, removed MATMOS and I'll see if it starts playing sounds - although it isn't as of yet. Quote

Have you tried everything over there? http://windows7themes.net/minecraft-no-sound-fix-for-windows-7-vista-xp-mac.html Start with the last, btw. Quote
Adlersch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 Tried 'em all, just now. Then restarted Technic with no luck still. It's irritating now that I'm trying to fix it. Quote
Xylord Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Tried 'em all, just now. Then restarted Technic with no luck still. It's irritating now that I'm trying to fix it. Do the sounds work with the other modpacks and launcher vanilla? Quote
Adlersch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 Do the sounds work with the other modpacks and launcher vanilla? No. Normal .minecraft vanilla will work, but nothing included in .techniclauncher will work - at least soundwise. Quote
Xylord Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 No. Normal .minecraft vanilla will work, but nothing included in .techniclauncher will work - at least soundwise. You tried deleting the techniclauncher folder, did you try downloading a new version of the launcher itself? If you have, I'm getting a little stuck there. :/ Quote
Adlersch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 Yup yup. Like I said, every possible option. It's weird, it's annoying and I have no idea how to fix it. Quote
Xylord Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Yup yup. Like I said, every possible option. It's weird, it's annoying and I have no idea how to fix it. The weirdest is really that the launcher vanilla doesn't work either. At least it means that it isn't a problem caused by a mod. You could always installing 51 mods on your vanilla MC... Quote

I dunno, I'll see if it's a persistent problem in the next update - it may well be my hardware. Quote

It might be a work-around until then. Quote
