No sound 688i - Page 2

I'm a new member here. Sorry to bump an old thread.

I have this problem too. Unfortunately, the link to the SFX.AGG file is no longer active. I've searched, but found nothing. Anyone have a link I can get this file from?

Thank you

I came across a website (I thope it works... http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManage...rsion&iId=9914 ) that gave a tutorial on how to fix the sound in sub command. I came across another link ( http://www.old-games.ru/forum/archiv...p/t-29184.html ) that directed me to links of the original sound files. I'm not sure if the one that came with the game had all the right sounds or not...

Anyhow, if you download the program from the second link above ( it's called scsoundedit.exe) and use it to open the sfx.agg file, then unzip those files into the Sfx folder, all the sound effects started working! However, if your sounds still dont work after that, you will have to download the file from the first link, overwrite your Sfx.agg file with the downloaded one, then unzip all the files using the scsoundedit program. Finally I can hear whats going on!

Hope it helps!

It looks like those links you provided are outdated. Question. Is there any other place on the net, including you or anyone here on this site that can provide me with the original Janes 688i SFX.AGG File? This is very important to me. Please help. email: nal2us2@yahoo.com
Thank you and God Bless.

Do you have the original 688i SFX.AGG File that I can get a hold of?

I had the same no sound problem in 688i and SC and extracting the sound files fixed it. If anyone needs hosting of the sound file reply and I'll host it.
