theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 What video and audio cards do you have and are you using updated drivers for both of them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReaperY2K 0 Posted January 28, 2004 All my drivers r up 2 date....its just odd that its only the Helo addons from Bas (blackhawks and LBs), nothing else has caused this problem!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 All my drivers r up 2 date....its just odd that its only the Helo addons from Bas (blackhawks and LBs), nothing else has caused this problem!! What file date/time stamps do you have for the following files: bas_lbs.pbo bas_lbs185.pbo bas_soar.pbo bas_soar185.pbo bas_mah60.pbo bas_soarpilots.pbo BAS_Repair.pbo JAM_Magazines.pbo JAM_Sounds.pbo Are all of the above files in one folder or in separate mod addon folders?

ReaperY2K 0 Posted January 28, 2004 The date stamp 4 those addons r the 10/08/2003 and the 11/08/2003....these addons r placed in the ECP addon folder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 The date stamp 4 those addons r the 10/08/2003 and the 11/08/2003....these addons r placed in the ECP addon folder The BAS LBs were released in 2002 so you're not being accurate with your dates. Also, does the problem exist if you run OFP with the BAS addons but without the ECP mod? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReaperY2K 0 Posted January 28, 2004 sorry those dates were just for the blackhawks...my bad and yes they still happen...just reinstalling ofp for the second time 2day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 sorry those dates were just for the blackhawks Can you give the exact dates and times for all of the files I listed? Also, is your motherboard based on a VIA chipset? Do you have an SB Live audio card? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReaperY2K 0 Posted January 28, 2004 The date 4 the littlebirds r 5/11/2002 and ive just had my motherboard replaced so as far as im aware my audio is builtinto the MB (but works fine with everything else) The audio device is Cmedia Xgear 3d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 The date 4 the littlebirds r 5/11/2002 The SOAR files were updated with the BAS Blackhawks and should all have a date in 8/2003. Quote[/b] ]The audio device is Cmedia Xgear 3d Never heard of it. Did you check the MB manufacturer's or Cmedia's site for updated audio drivers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 Are your JAM files both from October? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReaperY2K 0 Posted January 28, 2004 No they r from the 04/10/2003 (they were part of the tonal Pack) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 No they r from the 04/10/2003 (they were part of the tonal Pack) My mistake. Yes, those. Well, I'm stuck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReaperY2K 0 Posted January 28, 2004 It just seems to b when the Chaingun fires on the Dap Blackhawk causes the sound to become distorted but then it causes all the other sounds of firing to go the same way until my machine restarts Thank u for helping though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted January 28, 2004 Don't know if this will help but search The FAQ for "onboard sound". Frankly, I wouldn't be suprised if the problem was resolved by puchasing a minimally decent (that excludes an SB Live) audio card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
