I created A tictactoe (creategame class) game on my mac, uploaded it to GitHub, downloaded on windows 7. Then this error occurred while running the eclipse project. On researching, I think its a software/driver issue or it's not detecting the sound files, as a beginner, I am completely stumped. Thanks guys for your help.

> Error with playing sound.

Thank you very much for your help :P

  • `int IR = (int) (Math.random() * 6);` will never make 6 and it won't for **IR2** either. Use **7** instead of **6**. To make sure **IR2** will never equal **IR**: `int ir = (int) (Math.random() * 7); int ir2 = ir; while (ir == ir2) { ir2 = (int) (Math.random() * 7); }`. For the **NullPointerException**: I don't think it can find a Mixer when: `Clip clip = AudioSystem.getClip();` is called. – DevilsHnd - 退職した Apr 06 '20 at 21:43
  • Thanks, @DevilsHnd, I reuploaded this as I think I had bypassed the IR + IR2 . but I will update the "7". I think your right and the Mixer cant find it, but I don't think its a coding issue and that my computer has software issues with its audio. new error in this link https://stackoverflow.com/review/suggested-edits/25791791 null pointer I can solve now. "javax.sound.sampled.LineUnavailableException" I can't find this fix – Samuel Morgan-Tyghe Apr 07 '20 at 09:17
  • It's fixed , hardware issues. – Samuel Morgan-Tyghe Apr 07 '20 at 19:36
  • Nice to hear you sorted it out. :) – DevilsHnd - 退職した Apr 08 '20 at 00:00
