Pirate Doom - Chaingun missing sound

[Guest]

Hey guys, I recently started playing Pirate Doom and came across a weird issue that I can't seem to find any resolution for. Chaingunners and the Chaingun it self fires silently. I have tried this on both ZDoom and GZDoom. A Fresh install hasn't fixed the issue. Anyone got an idea on how to fix this?

Here's a video of the problem https://www.twitch.tv/snake122591/v/69940352 Sorry that I didn't include it in the first post.

I was going to ask this, too. In the most recent two or three videos I watched people playing Pirate Doom, many sounds were missing. It has probably something to do with new GZDoom versions, as the mod has not been updated. Unfortunately, I can't run GZDoom since v2.0 with my toaster PC, so I can't even test it by myself. If I remember correctly, pygmies and some explosion sounds were also missing.

But it works fine on GZDoom 1.9 and earlier versions.

This is a problem with FMod. Using the OpenAL backend the sound plays as intended.

Here's what ogginfo says:

It seems that the FMod loader is unnecessarily paranoid with checking the file's format.

Just downloaded GZDoom 1.9 and it works. Thanks a bunch for the answers and the assistance. Can't wait to play it now and not get sniped from chain gunners

Since this is outside ZDoom's control it will have to wait until either a new FMod version fixes the bug or that FMod support gets removed, the latter one being more likely.
