Excalibur5 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 So I've really been enjoying New Vegas, but there's one thing that's really killing me: The Radio. Not only does it rarely play anything at all, but when it does, it only plays Mr. New Vegas's news, absolutely no music, even on that particular station. Switching stations does nothing, as they similarly play absolutely nothing. I even tried installing a Radio Mod with additional songs, which worked for a while, until I switched stations, and now it's broken as well (it also doesn't play anything). I have no idea whatsoever as to what's causing this bug, but if someone's experienced it and fixed it, help would be greatly appreciated. I've talked to some friends who also have the game, and at least one has experienced this bug as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alte77 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I had this problem in Fallout 3 and now it's recurred in New Vegas. Anyone has a solution for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManMose76 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I had this problem in Fallout 3 and now it's recurred in New Vegas. Anyone has a solution for this? I played the game for 100+ hours without the bug, then it suddenly showed up today and I can't get it to go away, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starch Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Got the same problem, the error also effects Mojave Radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alec6694 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 there was a galaxy news radio fix for fallout 3, that changed all the radio songs to WAV files, then forced the game to play the WAV files, rather than their MP3 versions http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=7876 <---link to the mod there is a DIY guide, I tried making it myself in the GECK, and conerting all the files to WAV files for new vegas, but the problem still persisted.

whiskeyshots Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 (edited) Ok, I never had this issue but I found this in the NMA forums: Ok, forget about that. I found my problem... explaining now... My Realtek drivers were set for 5.1 sound properly, except that there was a "speaker fill" setting that was unckecked and this little setting apparently turns stereo-only signal into 5.1 signal.So yeah, everything (ambient sound, footsteps, dialogue, radio announcer) was working fine except the radio music.So, if you have a Realtek you might want to check that setting and even if you don't.... there might be a similar setting for your sound card too. Turns out it's not really a bug.-Vredehttp://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=56735&sid=d978540688876d2ca7bddacfb27375c8 Maybe this helps?

alec6694 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 my sound is integrated because im playing on a laptop, this is probably the reason why it's not working, I dont think I have a speaker fill option though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
