Sound Problem

[Tell Death I Said Hello]

Hello, so I bought this game, and on first start all sounds were on MAX. It would be no problem, but at that time I wanted to hear my friends on TeamSpeak so I lowered the sounds in worms settings. The problem is, when I later tried to put the volume back up, it worked but all sounds seemed just too low, all sounds maxed and still i could barely hear sound effects. To make it more clear and simple, first the sounds were at 100%, then i lowered them to lets say 40%, and now when I set them to 100%, they feel like 40%, naturally, if I set them to 40% now, i cant hear anything. If anyone has this problem, I would certainly appreciate any advice - tried reinstalling and it didnt work.

Hey Ilužnová Micá | {LINK REMOVED}kickback.com,


Sorry to hear that you're experiencing an audio issue.
It sounds like the volume controls for the game are still working, but the game audio is being affected by another setting.
The most likely cause is that the game has been turned down in your Volume Mixer.
To fix this, please follow the steps below:

1. Press the Windows key
   
2. Search for Volume Mixer
   
3. Choose 'Adjust System Volume'
   
4. Locate Worms W.M.D
   
5. Raise the slider for the game to increase the volume

If this slider was already at max, or these steps didn't help resolve the issue, please let me know.


Thank you,

Bumping this. I had the exact same issue, turns out it was indeed the Windows mixer that got reduced.

I found a way to reproduce the issue 100% of the time.

1) Set your sound settings to anything but 100% in the game.
2) Exit.
3) When the game logo plays (the one with the tank) press escape to skip the cinematic.

That's it. Now, your Windows volume is reduced by the percentage left in the "effect" slider.

For example: You set your effect slider to 90% (all bars but one), when you press escape, your Windows slider will be reduced by 10%.

This can happen up until the Windows mixer reaches 1%.

In my opinion this is a pretty serious issue as some people will have no clue what's wrong, and will probably get very upset.
