Win xp ,sound ,and codemasters

Recommended Posts

Sb Live 5.1 and Windows ME SOund is great can hear people before they hear me .

Sb Live audigy and Windows ME SOund is also great and can still hear people before they hear me .

Both with eax enabled .

UPgrade to Windows XP with Sb live 5.1 and/Or audigy (along with many trys and reformats and a new motherboard) From the begining I get crackles while the game is being installed .In the game ,in vehicles and copters i get the crackles and pops .First or third person .

By changing one of the audio codecs to priority 1 it seemed to help but then i locked up big time and couldnt recover.

BY THE WAY I JUST RECIEVED the SB Audigy 2002 Drivers CD

No fix there either .

So this is a Microsoft issue ? or a Creative issue ?

Why does codemasters act like they havnt heard of the problem ? Why is the sound problem only with this game ?I dont understand why Codemasters seems to ignore the problem when maybe they could fix it .I know what its like to hear someone on the other side of town walking .Thats what leads me to believe we have a game problem .

I know they have to see this problem all over the forums .

Anyone have any ideas or fixes ?

Dont sneeze or touch anything !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK i dont know how or why but the crackle and poping stopped .Heres what i was doing .

1) I noticed my OFP screen was scewed to the right about 2 -3 inches . So i was trying to fix that .

I took my refresh rate in the game and moved it from 65 hz to 85 hz .While i was there a song was playing in OFP and I turned Hardware acceleration ON and OFF and EAX on and off several times in combination orders listening to the difference.Left both on and ......

Then i went to my desktop right click /Properties /settings/advanced/monitor and changed my refresh rate to 85 hz .PIcture is perfect and .............

Sound is great . not like it was where i could here everyone on a DM map but close enough . Crystal Clear .IM happy .

Windows XP and OFP finally runnning together .

Last Night a member from USMC says he had an SOUND addon for OFP and it really sweet .ANyone know what he was talking about ? He had no idea where it came from either .

Satchel's Dynamic Range Sound Pack. Go through the thread and you'll also find a link for a corrective patch to the pack.

I think codemasters is doing the best they can but I do find that Operation Flashpoint, no matter how good it is, has the most amount of glitches, problems, and bugs I've ever seen in a game before. I havn't downloaded anything to the game that might screw it up and it still screws up.

"has the most amount of glitches, problems, and bugs I've ever seen in a game". I guess you haven't played many games.

1.58 beta (and higher, including Resistance) have updated soundcode which fixes the loud footsteps. It doesn't have anything to do with the drivers.
