-= Regarding sound bugs =-

[`O_O]

Scenario 1:
Everytime I have headphones on while hon is on, then remove my headphones and plug them back in. Hon is muted. I then have to restart hon with my headphones IN before I can hear sounds again.

Scenario 2:
If I don't have headphones on. Then I turn on hon. Then I put on headphones, I don't hear sound again in hon.

Scenario 3 (new):
If I'm on hon with my USB headset connected, I unplug the USB headset, then plug it back in, Hon still has no sound.

Edit: I also tried going into the startup.cfg and changing the sound_disable to false. That didn't fix anything.

A tedious solution:
I always have to plug in my USB headset, THEN turn on hon before playing.
I can't turn on hon first then plug in my USB headset.

Very very strange bug. My music still works fine in all three scenarios however, even though hon's sounds don't work.

It's annoying to have to restart hon everytime I put in the headphones, any other solutions?

Does your music also play through the headset?
Is it an USB headset?

If yes, then I believe you'll have to change the audio device in HoN after plugging in the headset.

My music still plays through my headset, yes.

I've tried changing the audio device in Hon after plugging in the headset, but hon doesn't show up any audio headsets. No option appears in the scroll down menu of the audio options.

I recommend:

- Having a refresh button in Options -> Sound category.

So when you play in your USB Headphones, press refresh, and the audio will recognize your headset in the scroll down menu.

That way I can just select it without having to restart hon.

Efficient.

Would you not agree?

Ugh why is this audio section being neglected in this game...

[`O_O]

Been several days now since this thread was even checked upon.

[`O_O]

Anyone?

This is ridiculous, not a single person cares about this thread LOL.

Still no response from any admin...

It's been almost a month since this was even looked upon. Wow...

"Microphone Problems

USB Headsets

1. Go to My Documents/Heroes of Newerth/Game


2. Open up "startup.cfg", scroll down to 'SetSave "sound_disable"' and change "True" to "False". Save the file and close it.


3. Run HoN and go to Options.


4. Option "Disable Sounds" should be unchecked and a list of Sound Drivers available."

This is what it says in the tutorial support wiki.

However this does not fix the problem at all.

I apologise for the long wait time, but I agree with you that an option to refresh would be good (and without it, there's nothing we can do about this right now), however, I am not a designer, so I can't do anything about that.

Please create a thread in the suggestions forum about it.
