Sound broken

Nukeproof · May 7, 2005

Since a recent PC freeze I have some sort of sound problem.

Outside INF all sounds are fine, inside INF 50% of the time its fine but occasionally I don't hear certain sounds at all (shots, clicks etc), or closeby sound aren't as loud as they should be. (its often just about turning about 1 degree to make a sound fail completely)

when I deactivate 3dsound and Hardware support it seems to work fine again (but I'd like to have it full featured again)

Any suggestion apart from clean reinstall...?

Are you using TS along with INF?

You can set up the max amount of sounds you hear at the same time. That might be it, not sure though.

It also happens offline without TS... max sounds is set to 32 like all the time...

This happens to me all the time, but it is directly related to TS (somehow).

The sound engine will crash. The sounds will be 'crunchy', or I just won't have any sounds at all. Once I hit escape, after firing off a mag, I will hear the sounds at the menu. But in the game, nada.

The only fix I've found for this is restarting INF and TS about fifty times until it works - switching TS's input mode between 'wave' and 'direct sound' solves issues sometimes too.

Of course, this only happens with INF.

I'm clueless. What other programs do you have opened while running INF?

Thanks guys... seems re-installing 4.36 patch fixed it.

On your problem Crack: I had the same problem using Soundblaster Live with Windows default driver... using latest Creative driver got rid of that.

I'm using USB audio devices. I have a ****ty creative card, but I don't use it. Also, I have the creative drivers installed.

I might give that 436 patch a shot...
