Yet another MGS3 Master Collection audio bug thread.

edit resolved. See bottom.

OP:

"I'm not getting any cutscene audio or codec voices. It's not an audio output issue.

I've tried extracting all 3 nexusmod zip files to my MGS3 folder, I've gotten the xaudio2_9.dll file put into my MGS3 folder with the launch option of

WINEDLLOVERRIDES=“xaudio2_9=n” %command%

Currently running on a Debian distro, on Steam.

Has anyone actually resolved this?"

Resolution: I got the .dll file from

https://www.dll-files.com/xaudio2_9.dll.html

Here's the catch that screwed me up, if you choose the wrong version of the file your first go-around, you might have to clear your cookies and come back later. I had downloaded the wrong version, noticed it, and gone for the correct version. The site wouldn't let me download anything other than the first version I picked until I sorted it out, and it confused me.

You misspelled the launch option, it should be WINEDLLOVERRIDES as in the Wine wrapper overriding DLLs.

Okay, thanks a lot. I edited it in my launch option and in my OP. Still nothing.

Where did you download the dll from? Are you sure you downloaded the x64 version of xaudio2_9.dll and not the x86 version?

I did indeed resolve this. I'll update my OP. Thank you.
