Sneakson 1 Posted April 1, 2014 Jameston said: I don't have any Check the computer and in-game sound settings... maybe you're set up for surround sound or something. Also do you have any trouble hearing characters talking behind your back or are there any other sounds than your own gunshots you can't hear? Can you hear your character moaning when you've been sprinting a lot? If it's only the gunshot sounds and nothing else I'd re-install. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dayglow 2 Posted April 1, 2014 What do you use for sound? Onboard? Sound card? External card/DAC? if your source for sound doesn't have a setting for virtual surround (Dolby Headphone, SBX, ETC) make sure your windows sound setup is set to 2 speakers/headphones. If it's set for 5.1 you would be missing channels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dayglow 2 Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) With your headphones selected hit configure. Try setting it up for 2.0 or headphones and see if that solves your issues. From reading the specs for the headphones they're supposed to be 7.1 - have you installed any drivers for them? I'd check out their website for drivers for your version of windows then in the properties you should be able to select 7.1 and get virtual surround.

Nicholas 5 Posted April 2, 2014 How do the headphones connect to your PC? Is it a USB connection or audio jack connection? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jameston 1 Posted April 2, 2014 Alright guys, so I bought a sound card because apparently my headphones needed to have can optical cable plugged into an optical port, I just got my card and plugged everything in and basically it refused to work. My headphone manufacturer told me to set the SPDIF to default and basically that didn't work. So, I set it back to the Headphone speakers and went in game, and fucking again, you guess it, No. Fucking. Gunshot sound. To DayGlow, I can't set it up for that because I can only choose 'Mono' as you can see here: http://i.imgur.com/EwZWF1X.png (286 kB) To Nicholas, it is through USB and Optical Cable as you can see here: http://i.imgur.com/mbJw8Vs.jpg (583 kB) http://i.imgur.com/EkkIxgM.jpg (559 kB) By the way, I can hear every other sound, even other people's gunshots, but my own I can't.

dayglow 2 Posted April 3, 2014 What sound card did you get. Reading up on your headphones you need Dobly Digital encoding on the optical out for the headphones to properly work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonci87 163 Posted April 3, 2014 You can only set it to mono? Something is very wrong with your PC. Do you have the proper drivers installed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tonci87 163 Posted April 4, 2014 Dude I´m seriously out of ideas. Something seems to be wrong with your Hardware/Software setup. Do other games work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, Project Reality (Battlefield 2 version) had issues with their radio and it was a problem with my headset. I think it was a conflict between my headset and the game.
