Humming distortion audio

NWRDevil · 02-09-06, 10:12 AM

Hi

I have installed the game and started a new career. All went well and I saved and went to bed.
Now when I load up a save, everything is fine untill I go onto the F3 bridge screen. No problems, all looks and sounds ok. As soon as I go onto any other screen I get this loud humming noise like a ships foghorn. Cant get rid of it after that and have to shut the speakers off.

Any ideas?

Try shutting off hardware acceleration on your audio card.

Thanks for that. I have an onboard soundcard with Realtech HD Audio set up.
I looked and the digital sample rate was set at 48K Hz, so I set it to 44.1 k Hz and that seems to have cured it.

I have no idea what I am talking about above, but it seems to have done the trick.

So, I bet you know how to dock at the end of your mission as well?

Take your sub to about 20 Km of your port, and press "esc". If you are close enough an option is "Dock AT ......"
