Hi, it's me again.

I wiped SHIII from my computer, and deleted all folders from every install, including those in the documents folder.

I started with a fresh install of the SHIII, turned on compatibility mode and administrator permissions, ran the game, changed speech to German, and ran a test mission. Everything was OK.

I then applied multi-SHIII, ran the program as an administrator which created the GWX folder, and I ran the game and mission again to test: everything was peachy.

Lastly, I installed GWX, ran the same thing, and the speech and other sound effects have gone. Only ambient sounds play. Thankfully, my stock SHIII still works. If I go into the sounds folder and play the oog files, everything seems ok, so no files are missing or corrupted, I think. I tried setting the speech language to English and French, they are still muted, along with flak bursts, explosions, etc.

Ideas? Thanks.

EDIT - Nevermind. I'm an idiot. It seems to be related to using the new shortcut. If I use the .exe from the root folder, it works fine.
