No explosions?!

Recommended Posts

when ingame and i do something such as throw a grenade or launch a missile, when they hit/detonate, there is no explosion as there used to be. All i see is the object make a crater in the ground, thats all. I have used the preferences before starting, and have made sure "explosions" is indeed checked. Ive tried both with it checked, and unchecked, both instances, there is NO explosions ingame

P4- 2.4bghz

chaintech geforce 4 Ti4600 128mb

512mb corsair 3200 ddr

there is no reason this should be happening (hardware-wise), this MUST be some sort of bug....i am running the latest, 1.91 patch version.......anyone know how i can see explosions again?? thanks

What soundcard do you have.

Have you played with your soundcard's hardware acceleration option. Try setting it to maximum or totally disabling it to see if that makes a change.

Also, did you install a sound pack addon?

Are you by chance playing with a warez or no-CD cracked version?

avon, i have all retail versions of flashpoint, redhammer and resistance. I dont have any sound packs installed. My problem is that I cannot visually see an explosion, though I do hear it fine. where do i turn up my soundcard acceleration up, I know at one point I had lowered it for some game, but ive had no problems. I have a SoundBlaster PCI, the basic deal. I hear the launch of a missile, i see the missile, its trail/light, on its impact i hear it, but do not see a fiery explosion as I once had. crazy.gif
