No Sound?

[Zepondrax]

So i just installed this? I get sound in Windows, i get in game Menu Music and Audio
Audio sound levels are 7 outta 10 and i hear Henry say "We are under attack" but then when i go to the game, the videos have no sound :(
if i pass and skip the videos, in game, there is sound.
Not sure why?
Help?

I tried some dude suggestion...i copied the binkw32dll file into the folder....no difference
i tried software sound and not software sound :(

Instead of doing that, you could just take a copy of the binkw32.dll from a newer game that also uses the binkw32.dll and copy it to your Battlestations Midway folder. That's what I did. (I would rename the original binkw32.dll in the Battlestations Midway folder to binkw32.dll.bak just in case). If you have a bunch of games, the chances are you have many that use binkw32.dll. Just find one newer than Battlestations Midway and copy the newer dll over. I used the one from my Payday 2 folder.

like someone else said as BSM relies oj BINK, my Anti Virus program flags it as a virus
and then i dont know what to do with the files as there many

For future reference you need to install RAD Video tools. And be careful with Alt+Tab as sometimes it removed audio from videos afterward even with the rad tool installed. I'm then forced to restart the game to fix it.

Whoa didnt think this was still going, Thanks for the reply ;)
that might help

I've reached the end of my patience with this game. I was REALLY looking forward to it, but I have tried every suggestion I have found here and on other websites and I cannot get any sounds other than the opening "whoosh" when the two EIDOS titles come up for two seconds each when loading the game. If anyone has another idea, I would be happy to try, but I've tried all the ones I found. I just regret that I waited too long to test it out, so I can't get a refund. Oh well... I'll uninstall it, but if I get a good 'new' idea that I haven't tried, I'll reinstall and try again. Such a bummer...

When I had the CD version it worked fine on Windows without steam but now i donth think it worked anymore so had to get steam version, and thats when i had issues.
I think if i am right someone told me ages ago you need to download some add on for it to work, but cant remember what it was

You did try to install RAD video tools and it didn't work? I tested it on both windows 10 and 11 and it worked for me. I would make sure to uninstall any video codec pack if you have any of those of thoses.

Hey Nico, yes... I installed RAD and it didn't work. I also uninstalled the video codec pack I had installed before installing RAD and that's what makes it so frustrating since I've tried everything I know and found on various sites. I just guess my system doesn't want to run this one the way I want it too. Thanks for the quick reply, my friend. I appreciate it!

I have noticed over the years some steam games are broken and they just leave it on steam for the community to figure out, they should remove it. I have played this game over 10 times and its a great game but cant be played if its broken.

Yeah, Zepondrax, I have noticed this with a number of games that do not work, but just keep being offered on steam without even so much as a warning that there are problems. That's why I have to learn to try any new game I purchase right away so I can get a refund for it. Made that mistake with this one, so at least I learned something from the experience. Thanks for the reply!!

No worries. Its a great game because you can swap between planes, subs and ships anytime in the letter missions. It's a short game though you could complete it in one afternoon. Id say about 2-3 hours gameplay
