I'm having some trouble with the original Gothic, which I've just downloaded. When launching the game, the initial cinematic played with no sound, however when I got to the main menu the background music and interface sounds played fine. When I launched a new game, the sound was fine during the intro cinematic, however all sound and music was absent when I got to the game proper.
After quitting and launching the game again, I found that no sound or music played at any time. I tried reinstalling, but there was still no sound or music. I'm running Windows XP.
Also, this may be nothing, but the installer I downloaded didn't have the usual GOG.com icon - it just had a generic program icon. I figure this is nothing, but you never know.
I could try re-downloading it, but bandwidth is expensive in my country so I'd rather find a normal solution that doesn't require me to re-download the entire game, especially since there's no guarantee that doing so will make it work.
Can anyone help? I've scanned the last couple of pages for a similar problem, and I found some links to a patch that has worked for some people, however the download link appears to be broken now. Any help finding a solution would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
