Sound & Music do not play! Help!

[bobrocks95]

Well, in ZQ, make sure "No Sound" is unchecked, and it's probably best to scan and make sure you have everything needed.

This happens to me occasionally, but I just exit then reboot the application. Not the computer, and make sure you close out, not just hit Reset.

Now that I think about it, this has happened to me before in 2.10, but has since never happened again.

[Stupid]

Still no luck.
Do you know where the SW Synth or Wave options are on Vista?

[bobrocks95]

No clue, I'm an all XP person.

I don't think Vista has them. But if you find them, let me know.

I was curious so I tried playing a MIDI file, & it didn't play!
I'm new at this, but doesn't Zelda Classic use MIDI files?
Can you guys think of any reason why my computer doesn't play MIDI files at all?

Well Stupid; :p First thing to try is double-clicking your volume icon in the task tray, you should be able to set your volume levels here. If for some reason you don't have a volume icon, go to start->control panel->Volume options and set them there. If that doesn't work for some reason you can also try to "play lost woods" midi in ZQ...I don't know why but sometimes that works for people.

I had a problem much like this, and indeed the volume trick fixed everything. I was hanging out with Alpha when he figured it out. It was weird because I don't remember ever turning my midi volume down, he said perhaps some program did it... point is everything works fine now, so chances are that is indeed your problem as well. Now all I need to do is find a good pc controller to use with ZC (any suggestions?).

I told you what one to buy!

I've used a lot of PC gamepads, from Sidewinders to various Gravis products to SNES controllers via a SmartJoy. This one is the best yet.
