And what's up with the radio chatter of the RPs? I can hear them more than 100m away.

The sound distance in 607rc1 was already fine.

Nothing changed.
Never had Sound problems before or after I changed the openal.
And the long range RP noises doesn't sound like a soundproblem at all.

did you do the openal update including the copy and rename of the wrap_oal.dll file?
do you use hardware sound? try software instead, or vice versa.
try to lower your soundhardwareacceleration.

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. No changes

Does this really matter?

yes, to lower hardwareacceleration for sound could always fix strange problems.
it was fixing the problems with not hearing the own gun for the other guy and does also fix a strange black texture problem for him, so you never know..

Yes but this wouldn't solve the real problem at all.
You talk about sound problems that are disadvantges but this is an advantage.
The other guys out there don't even try to get rid of an advantage.

I've tried several nice sound cards and a couple of borrowed high end cards with BF2, and I've always had a similar problem with EAX enabled. For some reason, EAX doesn't function properly on the vast majority of sound cards, resulting in no sound attenuation over distance, thus you can hear for miles, often everything being at the same volume regardless. This also has the nice side effect of quickly overloading the # of simultaneous channels a sound card can process, sometimes resulting in additional sound corruption.

did you get your DirectX 9 to the very last update?
did you do the openAl update from the other thread?
