it would be nice to see your Saved Games\DCS\Logs\dcs.log file.

i reinstalled DCS and installed the Game new, but i hear nothing.

 

here the link for the file

http://www.file-upload.net/download-11076389/dcs.log.old.html

 

00000.001 INFO    DCS: DCS/1.5.1.47285 (x86_64; Windows/6.2.9200)
...
00000.245 ERROR   SOUND: XAudio2: can't create SourceVoice
00000.282 ERROR   SOUND: SND_Renderer failed to start
00000.282 ERROR   SOUND: can't start renderer

 

Hmmm, Windows 8 (6.2.9200) but can't use Xaudio 2.8 which must be present.

Please, try installing DirectX 9c Runtime, it will install XAudio 2.7, which can be used by DCS if XA 2.8 fails to init.

I have this too. 1.2 is fine, 1.5 no cockpit sounds other than electronics and a few other random noises. No engin noise, although it can be heard in "F2" view etc. although it doesn;t sound quite right.

the problem is that xaudio fails at the stage where it were not supposed to fail and the engine can't pick a different "driver" at that point.

I will rework sound init a bit so this kind of a failure will be recoverable and the engine will just try with another "driver". Also this will allow to set the "driver" manually in the config file.

FYI: currently these drivers are just 3 different versions of XAudio.

Thanks for your attention :)

 

Look forward to the fix!

I just downloaded 2.0 and have this exact same issue:

 

SOUND: XAudio2: can't create SourceVoice

SOUND: SND_Renderer failed to start

SOUND: can't start renderer

 

Any word on a fix? Or an alternate driver?

 

(My 1.2 works fine.)

I have to toss my hat in to the ring as well. I just migrated to a new PC I built, so all of my drivers are up to date. My old PC ran 1.5.2 without any problems, but the new build is completely without sound. From the log:

 

00000.518 INFO SOUND: loaded 1074 sdefs from "sounds\sdef"

00000.593 ALERT SOUND: Can't start XAudio2.

00000.593 ERROR SOUND: can't start renderer

 

Hope you guys have some luck because it's unplayable without sound.

Hi,

 

Remarked i have the same problem here :

 

00000.387 ALERT SOUND: Can't start XAudio2.

00000.387 ERROR SOUND: can't start renderer

 

Problem on both 1.5 and 2.0

 

My sound card is an Asus Xonar DSX (if that can help)

 

 

PS: FIXED, i found the problem. I was working on a fresh Windows 7 installation, with a recuperated DCS installation, and the system DirectX version was not up to date. To solve the problem, download and install this : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=9033

Lots of sound issues in my log. Errors like this

 

06540.579 ERROR   Lua::Config: Call error Sounder_create:[string "Sounds\Sounders/GroundUnits/WeaponSystem/Tools/Launcher.lua"]:6: attempt to index local 'launcher_template' (a nil value).
06540.617 WARNING LOG: 1 duplicate message(s) skipped.

 

and another

01410.945 ERROR   Lua::Config: Call error Sounder_create:Can't find sounder GroundUnits/IFV/BTR-80.
01410.969 ERROR   VFS: Can't open file //models/m1126.edm.json.
01410.978 ERROR   Lua::Config: Call error Sounder_create:Can't find sounder GroundUnits/IFV/M1126 Stryker ICV.

 

Are these being looked into?
