Problem with TF2

Post by martinmai »

Hi I'm new to the forums.
Ok so I can't play sounds in TF2, even in my own server. I have checked the setup manual over 10 times and still the problem continues.
When I start TF2 and make my own server and select song, I get this:

Code: Select all

Unknown command "hldjsf"
Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_a.cfg
exec hldj_custom.cfg: file size larger than 1 MB!

HLDJ successfully loaded! 
Quick-Start Guide: 
1 ) enter 'la' to display the audio list. 
2 ) enter the number of the file to load. 
3 ) press the F4 key to start/stop audio. 

Basic Commands: 
hldjn, hldjp, hldjr - loads the next/previous/random audio file. 
hldjca, hldjcd - displays the current audio file/directory in console. 
hldjsca, hldjstca - displays the current audio file in public/team chat. 
hldjsq, hldjqa - stops HLDJ and quits the current game/quits both. 

[enter 'hldj1' for more commands/help] 
[enter 'hldj' to display this guide again]

Theres the line: "Unable to initialize DirectSoundCapture. You won't be able to speak to other players".
I wonder if the problem is in that, also does that I don't have a mic change anything?
EDIT: Also the speaker icon doesn't show up, but when other people speak, it does. Also does HLSS interfere with HLDJ?

DirectSoundCapture needs to be initialized for voicecomm to work, so you will need to configure your mic in the OS. There are quite a few topics on this with solutions including updating drivers and device properties, but the simplest being to plug in a microphone at least once.

Thank you for your help. I just plugged some old headphones into the Mic jack and and the problem was solved.
