I was on Minetest.net when I saw that they had a new version. So I deleted Minetest 0.4.4 and downloaded the new version. But now, there is no sound. I already tries downloading OpenAl, but it still doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I put the OpenAl folder in the minetest-0.4.5 -> mods folder AND in the minetest-0.4.5 -> mods -> minetest folder.
Thanks...

This is a mostly frozen copy of the Minetest forums through 2017. If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

No sound for Minetest 0.4.5!!!

If not, the FAQ should probably be fixed. I wouldn't be too dismissive though. Installing OpenAL DID restore sound on 0.4.5 for the only Windows box I had it installed on. Didn't need to install OpenAL for 0.4.4, but definitely had to for 0.4.5. If you're not supposed to install OpenAL, maybe it's a bug in how the game looks for the OpenAL library?

I packaged the 0.4.5 release wrong, it was missing wrap_oal.dll file. Now everything should work out of the box, no need to install OpenAL manually.

Ah! I see. Well in that case, thank you!
