Firing sound and animation glitch in mp

[icehollow 0]

Me and a clanmate noticed a few times while we were playing we couldn't hear/see eachother firing, However we could see/hear AI firing.

No animation, no muzzle flash, no sound, only the bullet impact could be heard. We originally thought it might've been due to a select mod, so we went testing all of them and alas in the quick tests we did we could hear and see both of us firing, so it's not a problem with mods I don't think.

My clanmate possibly thought it was on this select mission we had made due to him screwing up the description.ext or something, but also while playing the Black-Sword mission today on the 1.09 beta patch we also noticed we couldn't hear/see eachother firing.

So the only thing I can conclude is that its either:

A) mission problem

or

B) something to do with a sound mod (we're running Chammy's Sound mod among lotsa of other addons)

Help/Any ideas?

Try turning hardware acceleration under sound off.

It's not that because A) I don't have hardware acceleration on , B) that would have nothing to do with the animation and muzzle flash not playing either.

Well I sometimes get that error, without the muzzle though, I saw somewhere that it's related to the audio.

What other mods are you running. You might have something conflicting with Chammy's.

Does it do it in 1.08 and 1.09?

Add about 10-20 mods on top of that for my side (I am the clan member, or should I say clan leader he tested with)

Have you tried it without running any mod folders?

I could, but as I said, it doesn't happen all the time, so it's not a specific mod. It only seems to happen on certain missions.

Try turning the mods off and doing them missions again.

Just because it's intermittent, that does not mean it's not a specific mod (or combination of mods) causing it.  Or a specific mission or set of missions for that matter.  Good luck finding the culprit.
