Since the new build was released, it looks like there's sound playback issues with the 40K mod's laser weapons.

The files are 22khz 16bit mono. They worked fine in prior builds.

Anyone got any ideas about what's going on?

Heya. Those don't play anymore or stutter or smth else? Didn't touch anything related to sound, but who knows, what could cause this.

It seems like they're playing fine on the first shot, but then don't play on any subsequent shots. I'm really not sure exactly what's going on since I haven't changed anything recently either.

Maybe it's not a sound problem, but a problem dealing with the emitters that play them? Are the performance improvements in B32 possibly affecting those?

Most of the Las weapons still use the standard FireSound method, so I doubt that's an issue. I've compared it to several other weapons and they seem to be working OK in terms of sound + effects.

What I'm noticing, especially with the Lascannon, is that it can sometimes fail to fire -- and then upon firing another shot, it'll process both shots as intended. The firing sound usually only seems to occur on the first shot of a given magazine or after waiting a short time between shots.

The Brotherhood of Nod seems to be having similar issues with its laser and tiberium flechette weapons (although the GDI's Merlin seems unaffected, oddly).

One constant between all of these is that they have very glow-heavy effects involved.

That said, the Imperium Plasma weapons - which are another set of fairly rapid-fire, glow-heavy weapons - seem completely unaffected and work fine.
