Game Development

No sounds play.

I'm doing well so far in the course for Game Development. The only issue that I'm currently having is that I'm not able to hear any of the sounds. Even in the Unity preview. I my audio works for the videos and all that business, but for some reason, it's not playing sounds for the game. Preview, or in-game.

Hi Lee,

My first advice would be to ensure that the 'Play on Awake' setting for the Audio Source is set to exactly the same as in Nick's video.

If this does not solve the issue, then may I ask if you select the sound in the project pane, and click the play button in the preview option, does Unity actually play the sound?

If it does play in preview, then it is most likely a setting you have got wrong somewhere that differs to Nick's.

If it doesn't play, then that sound asset has most likely become corrupt somehow and you will need to re-import it and follow along with the video again.

Hope this helps fix the issue
