Game lowers microphone Volume...
I have the problem that the Game lowers my mic volume to 50% whenever I go into the Game and it's driving me crazy.

I tried to disabling the Uplay voice chat but that didn't help. The communictaion settings in the sound settings on my system are set to "Do nothing" and I run The Crew and the Uplay launcher as administrator.

So my question is has somebody found a fix for this or has the same annoying as ♥♥♥♥ problem?

THX for any help or advice.

Go in your microphone settings, last tab "advance" and there you can disable that apps can control your microphone, maybe this need to be disabled? I think worth a try ^^

I already done it. Doesn't work for me.

This is the translation thx to google :B1:
But it did not help

1 Press Windows + R on your keyboard
2 Type in the box: mmsys.cpl
3 In the new window select recording
4 Select the device used and click Properties
5 In the new window, select the Advanced tab
6 Uncheck the "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device." Ready!

This procedure worked with us, then can work with you too.

I concats to Ubi support. When they answer me, I'll post it here.

Woohoo, I found solution.

This happened because of Windows 8.
Just open game folder and set compatible with Windows 7 for TheCrew.exe.

In addition to this I set "Run as Administrator" for TheCrew.exe.

That did work for me as well, thanks for sharing that solution :D:
