can not disable sound

by SegFault22 » Post

Sometimes when I am playing minetest, I like to listen to Metallica. But I can't disable sound. I tried setting #ENABLE_SOUND to ''false'' in Minetest.conf.example, and even setting the volume to 0, but nothing works at all :P
I even restarted Minetest after editing the config file, and saved it before I restarted.
Any ideas?

Did you set "enable_sound = false" in "minetest.conf".

''minetest.conf'' has a file extension of ''example'' and each part of it starts with ''#''. In minetest.conf, or as you all see it ''minetest'', doesn't have ANYTHING even barely related to sound.

Metallica are awesome aren't they! Also SegFault22 try turning off or unplugging your speakers.

Ah, fixed the issue. Minetest.conf.EXAMPLE is a file of stuff that you can put in minetest.conf, without the # symbols to do certain things, like enable/disable sound or stuff like that :P

The hash character (#) indicates a comment, so if you comment out a setting in your minetest.conf the game will fall back to using the default setting set within the engine. ^_^

Eeeeet is true. OpenAL should be installed system-wide. Most installers pack it these days. Google is your friend.
