Random sounds are occurring, some are way to loud (e.g. auto attacks), some spells are completely missing. Also not consistent over several games....
This seems far from being viable at the moment![]()
Nope, and neither has their been any word on when lion will get voice chat back. Personally I would rather have no sound and have voice chat work then the current situation where I have sound but no voice chat. Anybody know of a way to go back to the old sound libraries?
There's no way on mac, only on Windows and Linux(?).
Btw,I turned off my sound because of the FPS drops. It looks like I'm watching a slideshow on powerpoint. So at the moment i dont have game sound nor voice chat. Thanks a lot.
I now listen to everything including chat music and effects except from the voices of the heroes. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
Id rather be able to hear my teammates on mic and use my mic rather than have a half working sound effects while unable to hear my teammates on mic....
Yup, I just use my Windows partition at this point. Not being able to use voice chat is way, way worse than not being able to hear the game sounds. They really broke the game "temporarily". S2 is the worst. I tell everyone I know that they suck hardcore. And this from a guy who really loved S2 and made a bunch of posts and sent e-mails on this issue. They've handled it terribly. It's still going on. They censor posts about it. Just a textbook case study on how a small business can alienate a customer base.
Oh while S2 is failing to fix this... can you check why there is a buzzing sound on the sound options (turn interface volume up to 100%).
Any Update On This? @S2XanderK perhaps?
How soon is soon to get all the sounds back (in a proper way?)
QQloy mentioned it, but no one has responded -- if you download the latest versions for Mac they do not even open. There's some missing file and you never even get to to the log-in screen.
It just prints a bug report and dies. Would love some iGuy help.
I was just flipping through some RSS feeds and saw something related to HoN and that inspired me to come to the forums and review the current state of affairs. Nice to see that since Jan 31st, they still haven't made any changes / progress on the sound. Sound has been broken since August 2011. Lol??
Other companies can get the sound to work for their games. Why not S2? Oh well, back to other things. GG HoN
Is this still broken? Pretty annoying that a game that relies on communication has no voice chat... I don't care as much about the sound, but voice chat needs to work...
Here's a addition that I found the other day which might entice fixing this a little fast...
I can hear sounds briefly through the fog from all the way across the map. For instance, I heard the other team attempting to kill Kongor while sitting in the fountain after dying.
Sounds like that are pretty nice advantages... Hopefully you guys are still working on a complete fix, thanks.
Maybe the reason they couldn't use a FMOD library that worked for Lion was PowerPC support holding them back. So now that they've dropped it they can easily just revert the sound code BACK to FMOD instead of OpenAL. Nothing against OpenAL, but they did a pretty poor job emulating the FMOD engine with their custom sound engine. At least that was my hope on March 9th when they were supposed to drop PowerPC support. However, no update in regards to Mac sound was released. Maybe when 3.0 comes out.
anyone getting unread bits after the patch?
this is like deja vu
