How to fix Texas Chain Saw Massacre Mic Not Working

Is your microphone not working while playing Texas Chain Saw Massacre? Don't worry, we've got you covered! In this guide, we'll walk you through some simple steps to troubleshoot and resolve the microphone issue. So, let's jump right in and get your mic working again!

To start off, try restarting both the game and your PC. Sometimes, a simple reset can fix minor technical glitches that may be causing the microphone problem. Restarting the game ensures that any temporary issues are resolved, while restarting your PC clears out any residual problems.

Open the Sound Settings on your PC by clicking on the Control Panel. Look for options related to sound or audio settings. Ensure that you have selected the correct audio device for your microphone. If you have multiple audio devices connected to your PC, such as headphones or speakers, make sure the microphone is set to the correct device.

Within the Sound settings, navigate to both Sound and Recording tabs. Locate your primary microphone from the list of available devices. Right-click on it and select "Set as Default Communication Device" to ensure that it is recognized as the preferred microphone. This ensures that the game identifies the correct microphone for voice chat and communication purposes.

Now that you have configured your microphone settings correctly, launch Texas Chain Saw Massacre and check if the microphone is working properly. Test it by speaking into your mic during gameplay or using any in-game voice chat features. Ensure that the microphone volume is properly adjusted so that your voice can be heard clearly by other players.

If you have apps like Discord running alongside the game, they might interfere with its voice chat system. Try disabling these applications temporarily and see if that resolves the issue. Some applications, especially those with voice communication features, may take control of the microphone, causing conflicts with the game. By closing them, you allow the game to have exclusive access to the microphone.

If none of the above steps worked, verifying the integrity of game files could help identify any corrupted files that are causing problems specifically with Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Open Steam, go to your Library, locate Texas Chain Saw Massacre, right-click on it, select Properties, and then click on the "Verify integrity of game files" option. This process compares the game's files on your PC with the original files on the Steam servers, replacing any corrupted or missing files.

Once the verification process is complete, launch the game again and check if the microphone issue persists. Hopefully, this final step will have resolved any underlying problems with the game files. If the microphone still doesn't work, you may want to consider reaching out to the game's support team for further assistance.
