Mouse-over descriptions not working?

#36300180757 03/05/2007 17:56:54 Mouse-over descriptions not working?

I recently installed the game and the mouse-over descriptions aren't working at the moment. before I uninstalled the game they worked perfectly. I installed through the software I bought on launch in 05, not sure if that's the problem or not. Full sys check didn't fix anything.

Also the music has seemed to want to leave. It no longer works either.

recent patch problem, or is it just me?

Did you check your Options settings? There's a checkbox to disable pop-up descriptions in the Advanced Graphics window, I think, and of course there are Audio options to turn down or turn off the music.

There is an option in the "Advanced Mode" of the graphics screen, i believe its "UI Tips" Make sure its ticked.

Yeah, I found the mouse over stuff. Turning off UI Tips also turns those off as well. that's fixed.

Background Music though is still off. I have all options turned up to their maximum, and all options turned on. nada.

Audio options:
In Game music - On
Best 3D Sound Quality - On
High Quality Audio - On
EAX Sounds - Off by default, but turned On
Chat Sounds - On
In Game Music Volume - All the way up
Master Volume - All the way up.

I can get Sound FX and things, just not the background music.

Hello Trayden ,

Dumb question but have do you have background music when EAX is unchecked?

In the meantime could you post the info asked for in Must read before posting: How to post your System/Network information so we can see anything else we can suggest.

The audio system might not be initalising properly.

Try using the /radio stop command in your chat window.
