and im correct in assuming you do have a functioning input device? ive just pushed some stuff to master that should make the logging a bit more helpful, so itd be useful if you could grab the latest master build and run set SPDLOG_LEVEL=miniaudio=trace,audio=trace and abaddon.exe via command line, then send the output here

audio engine initialization failure is also non-fatal now so you can at least hear/use text even if your input device isnt working (or perhaps try picking another one via the GUI which should reinitialize it)

set SPDLOG_LEVEL=miniaudio=trace,audio=trace

Is this a command line option or something that needs to be added somewhere while building the binaries?

from abaddon.

its an environment variable not quite a command line option, but if you run that line in the command prompt and then run abaddon also via command prompt it will give more verbose logs

i do not have a functioning mic on this computer but i would still like to use abaddon, for eg text messing (i don't use discord for voice). is this not possible?

it should work fine without a microphone. do you get any issues when using the latest master build?
