What I'm wondering is if your syrinscape sounds are playing but if voicemeeter is jacked up somehow, you might not be hearing them in your headset. If you have voicemeter active while you are testing fantasy grounds and syrinscape, can you send us a screenshot of voicemeeter so we now how you have it set up? You can also completely shut down voicemeter to make sure sound is just coming straight through your speakers. Then when you test the sounds you should hear them. I'm trying not to confuse things, but keep in mind that syrinscape will play using whatever sound playback is active the moment you launch syrinscape. So, maybe start by shutting down voicemeeter (click on menu in vm and click on shut down voicemeeter). Then shut down syrinscape. Now launch syrinscape and your sounds default should just be your speakers. Now when you click on the link within fg, you should hear it. If that works, then your issue is just your voicemeeter setup. Hope that makes sense.

Here's how I got it set up so far, I didn't exactly tweak it according to the video.Attachment 20096

Ok. So, you can do one of two things. You can follow the instructions to shut down voicemeeter completely from my prior email OR, you can leave voicemeeter up and shut down syrinscape only and the do the following:

1 - right click on your "speaker icon" at the bottom right of your computer (assuming windows....)
2 - Change both your recording AND playback devices to Cable B
3 - Open syrinscape and wait until it fully loads
4 - go back in and set your sound defaults back to Voicemeeter VAIO for playback and Voicmeeter output for recording
5 - go back into fantasy grounds and click one of the purple sound clefs and cross your fingers! :)

Click on a sound that might go on for a while and open voicemeeter to see if you see the sound playing as well.

Give me a little while to try and I'll reply whether it worked or didn't work because I would like to get this solved in case someone else has the same problem.

If you follow my directions, you'll know if Syrinscape is setup properly (the file manager should launch Syrinscape automatically if it's not running). If you don't see those results, first make sure Syrinscape is installed and running correctly. Without that part, you could spend hours on the rest and get nowhere.

All the DOE extension does is send that same string to the OS, just like the file manager does - so if it's not working through the file manager, it won't work through FG, either.

Andraax is right and I apologize for jumping in and "hijacking" this thread a bit. Wasn't my intention. I probably got the cart before the horse a bit....

Always brings up funny images...

I was wanting to test it out to see if I did it right.

Did did enable game sound in the options section? Do you have a Syrinscape account? Do you have a fancy audio setup or using software like Voice Meter?

Okay. Thanks for all the help. I had to take a step back, grab something to eat, and see what else I can do. I'm going to try and do the tutorial step by step and see what happens. I will post later if anything does.
