RS3 Sound Problems

[Plasma]

So, I wasn't really sure if this belonged in Runescape Questions, or if that's aimed more towards in-game, strategic problems.

 

Anyway, I've been playing Runescape 3 for around a day now, and it seems that I have a bit of an audio problem. When I'm gathering something, i.e. mining or chopping tears at the battle between Saradomin and Zamorak, the sound for that action only plays around half the time. It'll cut in and out, and it's pretty annoying. Also, the game music seems to be pretty quiet compared to the other sounds, even when turned all the way up. I'm not sure if that's just how they made it, or if that's also a problem.

 

Thanks in advance for the help!

what is your fps in this area?

 

FPS can have some major factors involving in how well audio performs on a game.

 

I would also suggest confirming that you have the most up to date sound drivers installed.

It's fluctuating between 18 and 25 FPS.

I have this very same problem as well, with in-game sounds and music, it quite annoying =/

My fps is lower at about 10-15 fps at any time so I don't believe that's the issue here hmm... I would still suggest checking your driver information.

 

I would also suggest making a report to jagex about the issue as if more than one person is having the issue then it's likely it's a known issue for certain hardware parts.

Just checked, and all of my drivers are up-to-date.

I think it was mentioned in the notice for the big update on 22jul13 that music is now streamed directly from seperate servers. I wonder if that change includes not just music but aklso sound effects and voice, etc. Could that be what is causing problems?

I've found from toying about with everything I have unlocked, music no longer drowns out other sound effects and is instead drowned out by them.

Good to know that I'm not the only one.

It seems to really only be with older music for me, though, it's almost like they made that quieter and made the new music louder for some reason.

 

Also, I've been getting some kind of breaking with skill sounds too, I've reported the music being quieter to Jagex already, but not the sounds breaking.

This is a known issue at the moment. I was posting a few bugs on the forums and I noticed jagex had a thread up about it already. It is supposed to be fixed sometime this week hopefully.
