I am fighting against IC2's crash that causes a black screen before the main menu loads that is caused by enabling sounds without the proper fixes. When I applied the soundsystem_update, minecraft started getting the crash even when sounds were turned off! I made sure the version was the newest one, since im using IC2 v1.23
The things I have installed in my .minecraft, in order are:
IC2 and the mods it directly depends on(installed following the wiki's instructions to the letter)
Portalgun(worked without incident previously)
Recipe Book(not start of crash)
Risugami's audiomod(for portalgun mod)
Soundsystem_update(when crashes started)
Ive looked up others posts about the same crash, followed their fixes, and still not getting anything. I even tried hand picking out the files from the soundsystem_update and audio mod. Failure. Thank Notch I recently set up a backup of a working version, but now I still have no sound.
