NO WORKY
GalCiv3 Forums
I have played Galaxy Civilizations 3 for YEARS. Suddenly one day my SFX sounds no worky. Everything else works fine. I uninstalled and re- installed. No joy. Sound system of computer fine. No Microsoft updates noted when problem noted on Dec. 7th. No steam updates noted either. WTH!!!
Sorry to hear you are having trouble.
Have you tried checking the audio options or volume mixer?
Alternatively, go to the folder \Documents\My Games\GC3Crusade or \Documents\My Games\GalCiv3 and delete the prefs.ini file.
Thank you for your patience and patronage.
Same issue since update to 4.21. Windows 11, no problems before the update. Deleting the prefs.ini does not solve the issue. Music plays with no problems. I gave up on my current game to wait for a fix assuming devs were aware.
Is this only happening with 4.21? If you opt-out does the sound work normally?
Just launched a game after removing 4.21. SFX came back and are present, put 4.21 back in and SFX were gone. It is something in the 4.21 opt-in, for me at least.

The issue is resolved, reinstalled 4.21 and started a new game, sound is back.
Thank you very much for the report, effort, and update.
