im just finishing my megadrive tutorial of simply austin  and for sum reason each time i load a game in rocket launcher or hyperspin my pc volume gets turned off to 0. but if i load a mame game the volume is stays at what i set it @ e.g 100% it was working earlier then just stopped :/

 

iv checked the volume mixer and as i load a genesis game it sets all volume controls to off. i turned it up had sound and exited the rom, tried to load again and it returns it to nil.

has anyone had this issue before?

In rocket launcher under settings like the third dropdown from the top, be sure that mute emulator is false

hi mate i went in to rocketlauncher fade general and changed the mute setting to false (it was the only one i could see).

 

but now the kids are in bed and i only have the laptop running i noticed that the sounds isnt being turned off completely but turned down to 2/100

check the volume mixer ion windows WHEN RETROARCH IS RUNNING to ensure the volume is set to normal with windows.  then the only option could be inside the RetroArch settings.  Go to sound settings and make sure you have it turned on or at least up?

thanks austin iv done this and will put up photos the first one shows full volume for everything while running hyperspin. then the second photo shows how it instantly changes once it launches with retroarch.

 

tonight i have even tried to remove retroarch and reinstall it and still have the same issue

correct mame works perfect. one minute it was working then i was on rocketlauncher and then it was gone. can you show me in the .ini retroarch file i can check the volume?

I would mate, but thats why Im puzzled.  You see if it was RetroArch volume it would do it just in the games, maximum I would think the Windows for RetroArch turned off.  But as you can see it turns everything down on your system. 

 

That to me would say its something in the module, although you only seem to be the only one with the issue and everyone else has the same module with no error like this.  The only other thing it could be is windows volume/sound settings itself.  Maybe its set either default settings for the RA launch or some bug?

no no no no mate... you stick with your windows! hehehe

 

Right, I cant check for certain as I only have HL installed on this PC... but they almost the same.  In Fade settings/General theres an option to fade mute Emulator on start.  It says Windows XP mutes the entire system.  This was pre windows 10 and I hear much of the new windows setup was based on XP.  Maybe its this?  Check it to false for Megadrive and test??

 

Thats if its even in RocketLauncher hehehehehe
