    Ok, I found out what the problem is.
    Believe me or not, having a SPACE in the "Game name" option does not allow me to play any sounds.
    Removing the space makes them work fine.
    This doesn't make sense smile

    Strange! Maybe this will make you start joining up names with_underscores from now on. wink

    Not heard of that happening before. Must be a mac thing.

    I have two spaces in the Game name and no problems with sounds using 4.2 on Mac OS X 10.11.3

    Well, I give up. It's working for him though, so let's just mark the thread as [solved] wink

    Update, just for the fun of it - I have just figured out that it's not the space that is breaking the sound, but the specific name I gave to the game.
    So, I had originally used "Lobster Kyle" which breaks it, and then I tried removing the space which made it work.
    But apparently it was not the space which is causing the issue, because "Lobster Kylo", "Lobster(space)(space)Kyle" (with 2 spaces) and all variations of the 2 words with and without spaces work just fine.
    For some bizarre reason, "Lobster Kyle" breaks it, which is a word that I cannot find anywhere in the .ved, and is also not present in the path because the project folder is called in a totally different way.
    Weird bug, for sure.

    Is it written exactly like that or does it contain any special characters? ä, é, ñ, for example.

    No special characters, just "Lobster Kyle"

    I guess it's just a case of VS not being a big fan of lobsters! razz

    How a word inside of a name field can mess up the sound functions is beyond me. A strange bug. A very strange bug indeed.
