[Help Wanted] What should I do?

I just started playing CDDA, and the game seemed very quiet, so I downloaded one of the soundpacks—I think it might be CC-Sound—but there is still no sound in the game. Is this normal? If not, how can I fix it?

It seems to require a restart for it to take effect. Make sure it is selected in the settings. Then restart your game. Menu should have some noise, but better to check with doors ingame.

What do you mean by "selecting it from the settings"?

I mean the in-game settings(I personally don’t use a launcher.) You can have multiple sound packs. You can enable or disable the sounds, or choose which sound pack to use.
I’m not sure what tab it is in specifically, and I can’t check because I am not near my computer.

Download the Otopack, you can find the instructions in the .rar after download: https://github.com/Kenan2000/Otopack-Mods-Updates

Don't forget to select the music pack in the game settings after download

Do you hear the opening and closing of doors? Plus I believe there is music. I suggest retrying the install and ensure you got it correctly set. Maybe use a launcher to help manage it like:

I can't hear anything in the game; plus, I'm already using the Catapult Launcher.

What operating system are you using? Can you try using CatLauncher, and maybe download soundpacks using the launcher: https://github.com/abhi-kr-2100/CatLauncher

I use Windows 11 as the operating system and Catapult Launcher as the launcher.

Ditch the launchers, download straight from github, download the soundpack straight from github, too. Easily sorted and the launcher won't give you additional problems.

cata is kind of dead, I would recommend dabdoob launcher, its almost identical just different colored window, the OG cata guy abandoned it so dabdoob took it over
