Stonerift Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Audio in background slated for release yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uriahworld Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Please add the option back into the game so we can have "Audio in Background" ! I really enjoy browsing in windowed mode while listening to the dialog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekwilds Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 /sing I have 3 monitos and this game is audio base no reading but listening so it sucks that audio goes away when I am trying to multi task!! and if someone attacks me I dont hear it!

Seffyroff Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I also would like to do this, multiple monitors are so common these days, please make the sound continue to play when the game doesn't have focus, as a togglable option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballzz Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Is this sound issue related to the fact that the game requires elevated privileges to run? Here is an interesting thread that is also not being addressed or acknowledged that I can see. I'm also thinking this is why all my mouse buttons past the standard mouse button 3 don't work, either. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=24092 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erosiaa Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I also would love to have the option to have sound in background! Please re-implement this feature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhardoum Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) Ditto, also run 3 monitors and its really annoying dropping the sound focus from game when i move to another monitor, please fix. Also, many thanks for admin rights with Vent, works a treat!! Edited January 3, 2012 by zhardoum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max_Gambit Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 i have lways used the < key since its never used in any games and for my keyboard its right in between shift and Z, ther thing i cant help you with, so its easier to just let the ctrl shortcuts be and find another ptt key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickRedOne Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 The game stops sending audio to the speakers when its not focused. Most games have a setting for "Audio in Background" I can't for the life of me find it here. It changed near the end of Beta, same time as the Requires Elevated status. Before that the sound worked in the background, and you didn't need Admin Level to run the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartDodds Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I would also like sound in the background enabled, I use 2 screens and whilst im watching an intro or cut scene i would like to multi task! At the moment i cant hear whats going on. /signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davisman Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I would like to take this request a step further. I would like to see an option for lowering the volume of other applications while the game is doing voice overs. For anybody who likes to listen to music/podcast while gaming, its a nuisance to make sure to mute everything before turning in/accepting quests.

feydrm Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 /signed An option for keeping the sound running when in background would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extelle Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Dear god yes. I went looking for the sound in background fix, and I'm sad there isn't one. It's driving me crazy. It's just a subtle thing but with two monitors, having the sound cut out when I do something on screen 2 is just maddening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neodymie Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I've seen several threads on this and not so much as even an acknowledgement that it's a problem. Did I just miss it? Any news about it at all? This is absolutely the most annoying problem with this game in my opinion. The worst part is I usually wanna tab to something else during dialogue when nothing's happening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerDevil Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Must, must have this. When chilling out waiting for companion to return while browsing the web I sometimes get lost in whatever I'm reading. Sound would let me know they are back. /need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealCandyMan Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Foudn this thread through google but I want this as well. Also, have people had luck running Vent as an admin to make sure the PTT button works? I haven't yet but was wondering if others had success.
