Sound file is messed up.

Firestormalpha · 06-06-2003, 12:46 AM

Got a message in gameplay that told me it could not find the Spear Out sound file when it was needed. Usually when I encounter one of these issues I can ignore it and move on, but this time it cause the game to lock up and then crash. I got inspired and went rooting around in my Morrowind folders. Took me awhile but I learned to find my way around. Found the file that was supposed to be played when I got the error. one problem. instead of "spear out" it was s--arOUT, where the -- are actually those irritating squares that occur when your pc doesn't have the proper symbols. I'm thinking the file is corrupt. Any suggestions? or will I have to reinstall the whole thing again? Or perhaps can someone send me a copy of the file in question, I'll do a delete and replace?

Added: Also having issues is the spellcreate sound file.

Ok here's the rundown. Only known issues are those stated above. I've run through just about every single sound file except for the character voices, and all but those listed above seem to be working fine. So, any help would be most appreciated. Be it advice or a replacement file for those that seem to not want to work.

I've mailed you the 2 files in question.

Hope it works. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Many thanks HammerHead. The files did the job, but for some odd reason I cannot delete the old ones. Oh well, as long is they don't cause any problems I'm happy with it. Anyways, as I said earlier thanks a load.
