Realistic sound travel time and cannons/explosions

akdavis · 04-07-07, 11:13 PM

I'm using an Audigy 2 ZS w/ latest drivers, and with this great option enabled, I get tinny/weak AA cannon (tested only 20mm, not 40mm) firing sounds and little portions of the explosion sounds that randomly occur at full volume after an explosion is over. There is also sometimes crackling and popping, especially when both AA cannons are firing. These problems are readily apparent in the artillery training mission.

I'd sure like to keep this realistic option, but I can't figure what is causing certain sounds to be bugged. I've tried switching speaker types, sound ports and sound acceleration with no luck. Also adjusted the sound channels slider in the game with no improvement.

Anyone else having/had this problem? Did you find a solution?
