Hello,

Here's the problem: the sound of my sp (intro, main menu, select sreen, vs, screen: all) is anormally low (but fine).

Evidence: this is the config for nearly having the same volume for all sound parts of the game (sp, chars & bgms)...

Quote
MasterVolume = 100

  ;This is the volume for sound effects and voices, in percent (0-100).
WavVolume = 2

  ;This is the master volume for music, (0-100).
BGMVolume = 8

Precisions:
- All the mp3s in the game (including the SP) have been "replaygained" (successfully) to 89 db
- All the sound options of mugen are at best values (optimal quality)
- Mugen global sound output is good: no noticeable loss of quality...
- Of course, all sp sound options in mugen.cfg are set to 100...
- En example with this snd config: https://mega.co.nz/#!ghcCyIqL!hb0b4d6zaFxiAJ8yJpc4tRPMwovfq3Z27rjGHBnEQ2U
- The sound difference has increased with replaygained tracks...

An idea of the trouble?

Thanks in advance for your help ;)

Did you try 255?

Or try adjusting WaveVolume and BGMVolume to 100.

Nice try Milady :)

However, the hereabove quoting is the exact reflect of the mugen option screen...: only 1 to 100...

About your other suggestion: i've tried... & it's worst = i only hear the bgms & fx...

That's precisely why i'm asking...

another remark: the sound difference wasn't so important before i used replaygain...

Thanks :)

What is replaygained anyway?

Perhaps the lower sounds are in stereo and the mono ones work better? It could also be the opposite?
I would suggest opening the sounds with Goldwave and look at them. It's the program I use to edit my sounds. It's a very strong tool for being so small.

... sorry for my late reply
but i'm sure this isn't the case
ALL the music files are in MP3 and have been replaygained according the same parameters....
