Hello there alltogether,

i was recently setting up OXC and OXCE in a Windows VM, which does not have a Sound device.
The Installation was good, and OXC loads normally and runs fine.
OXCE seems to not load the Sound files of the game if no Sound Device is detected.

See attached Logfiles for detailed messages. Not Mods exept xcom1 have been active.

Thanks.
Will be fixed with next release.

For clarification, OXC also doesn't load the sound files if no sound device is detected.
OXCE fails on its own internal sound checks... which should be turned off when there is no sound device.
