Sound Bugged

Recommended Posts

i'm playing the first sneaky mission

and i keep getting killed by soldiers who move to 5 meters behind me, completely silently

the first thing i know is when the soldier says something or fires

the other sounds work fine

Same here, sometimes the sound just goes dead on MP. Try turning off hardware acceration, and EAX helps, but dosen't eliminate the sound bug

actually on reflection i think the helo is drowning out low frequency sounds, such as the footsteps of soldiers walking towards you

I have a few sound problems:

1. When playing missions my gun won't make any noises when I fire it. The only way to fix this problem as far as I know is to restart the level.

2. Not all sounds are being played, like in a big battle or something.

3. The radio messes up constantly. Either messages will take a very long to be played/show up, or some words are not said. Also, sometimes the radio will stay on even after the person has finished talking, so no one else can say anything.

I had some problems with sound too.

I de-activated EAX and hardware acceleration and added the option -openal to my arma.exe shortcut.

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"D:\Program Files\ArmedAssault\arma.exe" -openal -nosplash -maxmem=1024 -mod=@Divers;@FDF_Sounds

It works fine now !

I doubt that the "-openal" parameter is doing anything. ArmA already uses OpenAL.

The solution for most people is to just turn off H/W Acceleration and/or EAX.
