ingame sound problem

by hAMMER • 15 Apr 2010, 18:12 • Journals
hoi config nerds,

since few weeks i have some heavy sound interruptions ingame. Especially on maps like grush or oasis.

every time, for example, when artys & nades explode or heavy smg fire is near to me the sound is like an annoying scratching or something...don't exactly know how to describe it.

on maps like supply, adlernest, braundorf i don't have that problems. so i think that interruption happens only ( or mostly ) "in the filed"?

btw i've noticed that my fps drops down from stable 125 to around 110-115 during that interruption.

and yes, i have already updated my sound driver. the only "solution" i have found so far is the /snd_restart command, but after around 1 minute i have the same problem again.

QuoteMy sound settings:

seta s_volume "1.0"
seta s_musicvolume "0"
seta s_separation "0.5"
seta s_doppler "0"
seta s_khz "44"
seta s_mixahead "0.2"
seta s_mixPreStep "0"
seta s_defaultsound "0"
seta s_wavonly "0"


Maybe there is something missing / wrong?


Thanks in advance

com_soundMegs 128
com_hunkmegs 512
com_zonemegs 128

or try higher values, assuming its a memory problem (like playing heavy ram games for a long time on low pc, you start lagging after a while)

my hardware is good enough so there shouldn't be any issues because of that, and it started just like 2-3 weeks ago, didn't had any problems with it before :)

My point is you can have high pc but the memory it uses for ET might be low.
