Footsteps wont play

[LorriAnne]

My game sound works as far as the music goes, but my footsteps, fighting sounds and such wont turn on.

Is sound effects off in the UO clients options?

Are you filtering any sounds in the razor general tab?

[LorriAnne]

In game I tried turning them off and on restarting and the music will turn on and off but not the sounds. I dont have razor.

[LorriAnne]

Is razor necessary for anything other than macroing?

[MatronDeWinter]

no, not really. It can be helpful with non macro-like macros though.

You might just have a faulty client for some reason. Try reinstalling the client and razor.

I'd double check the filter sound settings in game.

If all else fails, try reinstalling the client?
EDIT: oops, i just saw Matron already said this.

Is this on a winxp machine? If not, what OS? I've heard running UO in Wine on linux or mac os can have glitches like no sound.

Are we talking about the same filter?

[LorriAnne]

Yes, that was the same filter. Turned out it was something I had messed with on my computer's speakers. All is well now. Thanks for the replies.
