No in game sound

[killawhale]

Hi Guys, sorry if this is a noob question. Just installed the client, everything is working great but I have no sound. Was hoping there was an easy fix?

You probably pushed ctrl-s by accident as this command mutes the game sounds.

I'll give that a shot when I get off work. I looked at the sound and if showed everything being turned on.

[killawhale]

still no sound, everything sounds wise is turned on.

Are you on Win 10?

Actually I am on win 10, is that the issue?

I had the same in with Windows 10 on build 10130. Later builds work fine for me though. I used a work around for it to work in build 10130, although I'm not sure if you have the same issue.

Code: Select all

"Open notepad and create a file with the following line:

Start-Process ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Warcraft III\Warcraft III.exe’

(Adjust path as necessary). Save this as “WC3_SoundFix.ps1″. Then, create a shortcut to the file. Right-click the new shortcut, click properties, then add the following in the “Target” box *before* the path to your ps1 file:

C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -file

(Make sure there is a space between “-file” and the path to your .ps1 file.)

Finally, click “Apply”, then click “Advanced…” Check the box labeled “Run as administrator”
That’s it. Click ‘OK’ twice to close the properties dialog. Double-clicking the new shortcut should start Warcraft 3 with working sound."

Obviously, change it to apply to your WoW Classic install.
