Dracongard Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I did the one with the manual installation of the codec and that didnt work. I tried disabling the sound filter and the sound hardware, than both to be sure. Still nothing worked and i got nothing left. I also tried downloading the the patch from sierra saying to fix sound issues, but when i start the game again it doesn't respond and i have to re-install again. Does anyone else have a suggestion on how to fix the sounds.(mostly the speech isnt working) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of sound card are you using? Operating system? Direct X version? Have you tried this procedure? http://www.unityhq.net/forums//forums/inde...p?showtopic=968 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracongard Posted February 4, 2006 Author Share Posted February 4, 2006 Sound Card: Realtek AC97 Audio Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Direct X: 9.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliteone Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Sound Card: Realtek AC97 Audio Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Direct X: 9.0 Is it a built in sound (on the motherboard?) Also 9.0c is the latest direct X http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/info.as...isplayLang%3den There appear to be problems with WinXp and the viaudio.sys file, version 5.10.0.3622. The v5.10.0.3621 of that file seems to correct sound issues for the realtek. Your motherboard maker's site should have this driver. Seems to be a XP issue with the older driver. If you post the maker of the board I'll find the file for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daybreak Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I've ran into this problem before. A friend of mine has NOLF2 and a Gateway computer. We installed the game and the vocal tracks were completely silent, it was very frustrating and we never could find out why. This probably won't work, but you might want to run NOLF2 in a different compatibility mode, perhaps Windows 98 and see what happens. My guess is that some software emulation takes place and it may at least shed some light on the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliteone Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Ok also have you done this? f you are still experiencing sound problems, try reinstalling the Fraunhofer codec from the NOLF2 CD. - Go to my computer. - Double-click on the C drive. - Double-click on Windows. - Double-click on System32. - Right-click on the file L3codeca.acm. -Select rename. -Change the extension (last 3 letters after the period) to "old." -Close all of your windows. -Put CD 1 in the CD-ROM drive. -Go to my computer. - Right-click on your CD-ROM drive. - Select open. - Double-click on the file WMFADist.exe. - Follow the instructions to install. - After you are finished following the installation instructions, try running the game again.

Eliteone Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 In the game Do this: check to see if this box is unchecked DISABLE HARDWARE SOUND If this box is checked, this will disable DirectSound 3D sound support and could cause performance issues.

Belladonna Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 At this point, I'd try the 'Fonz' method... just smack the stupid thing with the side of your fist. Don't give up, Dracongard, eliteone or someone else will keep helping you till the problem is resolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
