Engine Sounds Muted


Recommended Posts

Just got back into the game after a hiatus, and noticed that, when launching rockets (for example) the sounds of the rocket engines are completely muted. Other sounds (background music, support clamps detaching, etc) are still there, but not the rocket engines. None of the volume options in my settings are turned down to zero, so I don't know if there was some update I missed or if it's just a glitch. Thanks!

Interesting, want to swap installs? As I have the exact opposite problem: No matter what I set the volume sliders to, the engine sounds are deafeningly loud, which is somewhat unfortunate if you want to listen to a podcast while playing.

But yeah, something seems a bit wonky with the sound settings right now. I've had music suddenly turn back on midway through a game even though it was supposed to be set to 0%, the spacecraft slider doesn't seem to be doing anything at all right now...  Would be nice if someone could look into this.

So I did some digging; try increasing the sound normalizer threshold. I increased mine from 1 to 2 and it fixed my problem. Although since your sounds are a bit too loud, decreasing it might work.

I believe I actually turned the normalizer off right after installing the game, but I'll take another look. Thanks for the heads-up!

*edit*
Well, after turning the normalizer on and off again (insert tech support memes here), it seems to have fixed itself? Let's hope it stays that way.
