Project Reality Forums

Okay, for some reason when I enter any game, on any map, and the round starts, when someone starts shooting, even if they're on the other team, over 500 meters away, I can hear it distinctly, as if it were right next to me, if something blows up, I hear it, even if it's 800 meters away, I hear everything in the game from cars driving, to jdams exploding, no matter how far they are... Anyone know what the problem is?

Hold on, I'm recording a video clip.

What kind of soundcard do you have?

A... Realtek HD Audio output according to DXDIAG.

A much better one on my other computer, but that's strictly for audio production.

I recently upgraded from vista to XP. Maybe I'm missing a driver? Nah, if I was, I wouldn't be able to hear anything, and 3d sound wouldn't work.

I assume you've tried the obvious. As in, switching between hardware and software in the audio settings, EAX on/off, driver update etcetc...

I've tried turning EAX, but stupidly didn't consider the hardware software stuff. I'm trying the driver update now.

Okay, got it, fixed. I had to switch the audio renderer to Software. :/ Thanks Jaymze!
