MitchSchaft 0 Posted April 23, 2002 That's normal. Nobody's quite sure why. Or whether it's microsoft's fault or BIS' fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Frag 0 Posted April 23, 2002 A lot of drivers which implement EAX have this problem -- they don't treat the distance to the sound source correctly. As a result, all the sounds appear to be right next to you -- bubbling water from fountains, footsteps, engine sounds, heavy breathing from soldiers a mile away etc. If you don't have the latest drivers for your sound card, try grabbing a new version (even if it is a beta from a place like 3DSoundSurge), and see if that fixes the problem.
