Operation Flashpoint has major problems w/ EAX. Still haven't found a fix, and it sucks because the players online that have it working correctly have a definite advantage...

When I enable EAX, the sound is... quiet and the positioning is pretty off, but the special effects DO sound right (aka I get bullet richocet sounds when I am suppossed to... without eax, everything sounds like it impacts brick, no metal richochet sound).

So I have been playing without EAX here for months.

Note: UT2K3 plays just fine with EAX, and have not had any crackling ever.

oh, i had my first ever incident.. pardon speeling.. ever of crackling.. after playing freelancer for over 7 hours streight *yea i know.. no life.. but hey, i have three days off with nothing to do* i got some... i was impressed..lol

i had sound crackling and distortion in games with the 2.03 and 2.42 drivers, but then i went on WU and download the 3.48 drivers and theres no more crackling in any of my games, except metal gear solid substance which i recan they'll never fix, (got to turn sound acceleration down)
ive tested:
GTA Vice City (no more EAX probs with sound muting like gun shots ETC everything fine)
Ravenshield (no distortion after 30 minutes of play)
Splinter Cell (Same as above)
UT2003 (Same As Above)


i had in all those games the sound probs now there gone...

GTA Vice City (no more EAX probs with sound muting like gun shots ETC everything fine)

Well, i have had no crackling or muting problems with GTA:VC and previous version (242 if i remember) of the audio drivers. I experienced the "muting" issue with previous ones...
Still, GTA:VC seems to change my system speakers setting, it seems that whatever the setting i set my speakers to, when i exit VC my system is changed to previous speaker settings in the list (for instance i set to 6 speakers, run VC, system changes to 4 speakers..)

PLUS, when i had the 2.42 Audiodrivers i finally succeeded in having true positional sound (after several weird maniplations like setting the system to 2 speakers in multimedia prop., then 6 in nvidia's audio config, then launching the game and setting it to DxSound HW /more than 2 speakers)
I dont seem to be able to have the positional sound to actually work now with GTA:VC, be it with EAX(which never worked anyway for that matter) or hardware Directsound which used to work.
I'll let you know if i finally find how to fix that.

It's been mentioned in numerous posts, they are available with windows update catalog, under nvidia corp/audio drovers or something...
