No sound in Asseto Corsa Competizione

[Plux]

Somebody help me, please.... No sound in ACC and I don't know what can be done to solve the problem anymore. The radio check works fine, I get to customize the pilot name, CrewChief even automatically starts when I start the game, but still no sound. I have already reinstalled in different folders on different disks, and poked around in the configuration files, but nothing helps(

I also have a simular problem, I have 1.10.3 ACC and CC 4.19.06.
The spotter checks in along with the Crew Chief. During a single user race, I do hear from the Crew Chief if I ask question. But I never hear from the spotter. I made sure the REALISM was unchecked.

Are there any other things I should look at.

I watched a youtube video of an installion very simular to mine, He was also running a single user AI race and the spotter started talking as the race started. Although he appeared to be doing a standing start, I.m using the a rolling start. So it appears that it works correctly with his ACC. He didn't have the mike enabled or the Talk to the Crew Chief button assigned.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

NEXT DAY UPDATE

I've been trying different things to with no luck. It appears, from the console log, that CC sends the command for the [REQUEST_ENTRY_LIST, 13] [REQUEST_TRACK_DATA, 1] and ACC never responds. Here is the console log. It also appears that the UDP connection with ACC is working because the first command, [REGISTER_COMMAND_APPLICATION, 599] [REQUEST_ENTRY_LIST, 5] gets a response of [REGISTRATION_RESULT, 1].

I have the same logs, but there no crewchief sound even in sigle user race(

[Jay Bunten]

Well after much investigation I found that the message in the console log: PlaybackModerator: Closing radio channel as Spotter has terminated the coversation from the spotter. DUH..

Why did it do this? No idea yet. The "Realistic" paramater is unchecked.

Could it be this: PlaybackModerator: Injecting: end_bleep and alternate_short_start_bleep messages. Spotter interrupted Chief.

Is that bad enough to shut the spotter up. Or is something wrong in CC itself?

Investigating to continue since doesn't appear to be any help from elsewhere.

[Jay Bunten]

Well, my problem is solved. It might be yours as well.

It appeared that CC has used ACC's default password to connect the UDP port to ACC. The ACC's default password is "asd" and is determined by a setting in broadcasting.json. that file had (for my install) a connectionPassword of "blank" or nothing/empty. The file is located in "Documents\Assetto Corsa Competizione\Config\broadcasting.json".

File Contents:

{
"updListenerPort": 9000,
"connectionPassword": "", <--- To set it to CC built in password of "asd", insert "asd" between "" marks.
"commandPassword": ""
}

That was all I needed to fix mine. ACC was refusing the CC attemp to connect to get the data it needed.

I didn't see any parameter in CC that had a setting for ACC broadcasting connection password, so it must be hardcoded as "asd".

Hope this helps.

[Plux]

It didn't help( Can u show your "non-default" properties, pls?

[Plux]

OH MY GOOOOOOD, IT IS WORKING!!!!
THE PROBLEM WAS THAT PORT 9000 WAS NOT SET!
I wanna hug u very much bro) Thank u a lot

[Seven Smiles]

Huge if true but I don’t know why this would just have changed and for only some people. Great detective work anyway

[Seven Smiles]

I checked the code and it is supposed to check that Documents\Assetto Corsa Competizione\Config\broadcasting.json has

accBroadcastFileContents = "{\n    \"updListenerPort\": 9000,\n    \"connectionPassword\": \"asd\",\n    \"commandPassword\": \"\"\n}";

and rewrite the file if it doesn't.

AH! It only does that if it thinks the game has a plugin... and a recent change to CC's plugin code leaves out ACC (because actually it doesn't ).

Beta version to fix this Crew Chief V4.19.0.8
