Title: Any fixes for the sound problem yet?
Post by: jonas on 2009 September 10, 10:21:50
Didn't think this needed to be posted in the Awesome section and haven't seen much reference to this lately which makes me suspect it's been solved somehow.
Getting awfully tired of silent lots with musical notes popping out of quiet stereos and the loss of build/buy music while building and buying.  Also tired of EAs blatant disregard of this issue.

So is there a fix I'm not seeing? Thanks for any replies.

The sound bug is basically caused by having more than one stereo on anywhere in your neighborhood. So you have to either go around and turn them all off manually, or use a mod that will shut them off for you. The NRaas Supercomputer (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,16355.0.html) has a command that turns off all stereos and should bring back your music. 

The real question is, why would you want the build/buy music back?

Sorry about that - I edited my signature out for you - I'm accustomed to signing my posts in my schoolwork and professional stuff.

Actually I have looked around for such a fix rather extensively at all the sites with no luck.  I should have mentioned that I was aware of the supercomputer mod but I don't really consider that a fix and I didn't see a need to have that mod for anything else.  However, if that's all we have so far, I guess I'll get that.  One would think EA would have responded to that one by now.

@Varmint: I'm just one of the few that actually like the build/buy music on Sims3 - I really hate the Sims2 build/buy.  I especially don't like mixing real music with my sims playing though and would/still do deal with the Sims2 music for hours on end.  It would be nice though, if we could play the in-game stereo music while building our houses.  I would dig that.
