WoW Cataclysm 4.3.4 sound issue

LeRutY · Jul 19, 2017

Hi guys,

does everyone have that sound issue, when you equip more and more bags the louder becomes the sound opening and closing them all together? Because of this I think the 4.3.4 version is the worst of all regarding unique bugs. I must play with low "sound" volume, it annoys me. Is there a way to play the EmuCoach repack with another version or to fix the issue in another way?

Seems client sided, redownload your WoW 4.3.x

I did but the problem persists. I´m using the mini client, could it be the source? I know there´s also a full client, but I have slow internet. Do you or anyone else have the bug?

Set your patchlist to monster wow, and let them update your client for you hehe. This happened to my wife and myself by accident, But their client is a lot nicer than the old regular one, Seems that the sound is better too for some reason.

For me there is no difference using the Monster WoW mini client. Same volume bug. And my (100% downloaded ) 4.3.4 doesn´t update when pasting "set patchlist logon.monster-wow.com" in realmlist.wtf.

I caused it to happen, By removing the .mfil and .tfil files from the main folder. At least i think that's how i did it.
Anyway are you using windows drivers for your sound? And is it built in sound, Or an add in card. The reason i ask is because the windows drivers usually are so generic that they don't work completely. This computer uses win 10, And has a realtek sound chip built into the motherboard. And it has five outputs for surround sound, And also front panel jacks that i can use. The problem is that windows only recognizes the rear stereo jack, And nothing else. I also can't use record or surround sound outputs because there is no software that allows me to change my output settings. So i had to go to the motherboard manufacturer (intel), And download the win 7 drivers for my motherboard, And force win 10 to let me install them.
Now i have an actual realtek sound program that i can run, that allows me to do literally anything with my ports, And i no longer get that weird pulsing sound when i'm trying to watch a movie. Because realtek knows what their doing, Windows doesn't. In linux i have no problem with stock drivers, Because most of the drivers come straight from the manufacturer.

I have .mfil and .tll files in the game folder. I´m using windows drivers, and also have built in realtek chip. Installed Realtek HD Audio Manager when got my computer few months ago. But the program annoyed me, volume was too low, so I uninstalled it. Since then I use no external program anymore. But I can try it with the audio manager.

So, I´ve installed the newest (July) Realtek HD Audio Codecs from the Realtek homepage and still there are volume differences between opening and closing one bag and five bags in WoW. BTW, I found out, that there is no executable to change volume etc. My volume is lower, as I expected. I, for myself, think that the Windows drivers are enough. I´ve had no problems using them so far.

Do you really have no volume differences in 4.3.4?

I never really paid much attention to it, but my sound works the same way, If i open all bags its pretty loud. But i don't play with my sound up loud so i really don't get annoyed by it. I did manage to get wow running in 3d though, that was pretty cool. I set stereo mode in wow, And turned on stereo in my nvidia settings. It's pretty freaky to see it in 3d but i don't think my eyes could handle that for long.
