Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

#1. The fix ONLY deals with modifying a BF2 .con file and has nothing to do with that OpenAl32.dll file or ANY other OpenAl file.

#2. Those drivers are certainly good ones to install and will not affect the discussed fix in any way.

wow, thats fast service, thanks talus. you da man!!!!

so sould i download this driver, then do the planetbattle field fix, then do your fix.... I should be good to go?

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

Well, you SHOULD download those drivers.

If you're disappointed with the current EAX implementation in BF2, then try my fix.

As far as the OpenAl32.dll fix goes, I would recommend you try it once if you're curious. Just make sure you back your original BF2OpenAl.dll file up. If it doesn't work, it'll save you having to re-install BF2

Whats the time line of when new creative drivers are released?

[Talus]

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

Very infrequently.

If somebody come up with a comedic way of saying this...please post. I'm too tired to come up with anything

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

Thanks, I hope this works. I always thoughts the gun effects were wimpy but I haven't noticed any other sound problems.

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

wow, thanks for sharing your knowdledge
i am wondering if there is a same trick for bf 42 or vietnam or even call of duty 2?

btw: is EAX generally only working in buildings?

[Hörsturz]

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

hey i have another question, i bought the special forces addon today and did the same trick (edited the sound.con file) but the EAX effects are still not hearable. any suggestions???

[Talus]

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

You edited the sound.con file for /xpack?

..\Battlefield 2\mods\xpack\Settings\Sound.con

I bought an X-Fi card which has a nice little EAX volume slider, so I don't need to use this trick anymore

[Hörsturz]

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

yes ..\Battlefield 2\mods\xpack\Settings\Sound.con its there i changed it.

btw: i found something myterious:

in the sound.con of sf i found this:

sound.setProperty ambient-indoor-obstruction 0.67

whereas in bf2 it stands:

sound.setProperty ambient-indoor-obstruction 0

why that?

before i forgot, did u found out something about the reverb of the guns?

Re: Improve EAX effects in BF2!! (finally)

what is something odd too is: i cant play Special Forces in the singleplayer, it just gives me a back to desktop when i start a singleplayer map.

and how can i start SF without using All seeing Eye? i didnt found the SF.exe??

thanks in forward
