Sound Effects still stop working - Insane Maps

from GalCiv3 Forums

I'm still getting this bug pretty frequently. I only play on Insane sized maps. After a while the sound effects just stop in battles, production screens etc. They work for the first 200 or so turns and become pretty dodgy after that. Even a complete restart of the game only fixes the problem for a little while (sometimes only one battle) and then its back again.

 

Anyone else still getting this? It was reported fixed back in May, but I'm not sure it was fixed for insane maps (or if map size has anything to do with it).

Yep I get this bug often also, and I also play on insane sized maps.

Same. It also restarts when a music restarts I believe.

I have that problem too. Also on an insane map. The sound effects are basically randomly working or not working. I can see no apparent pattern.

I have this issue and play on Immense maps.  I do have music disabled.  Does anyone from Stardock need a ticket or files for this issue?

I'd really like to see this problem addressed, but filing a ticket with a save game seems less than helpful as the problem is intermittent at best. How should we go about this?
