  • sb live EAX + halflife = not working

    Hi,

    i can't get EAX working with half-life (counter-strike),

    everything sounds the same whether a grenade
    is thrown in front of me or behind me...

    i did get it working once, and the difference was quite
    noticeable but i cant get it working again...

    do i need to use auto-eax?
    do i need to do anything in surround mixer?
    do i need to enable to eax animation?

    what else could be wrong?

    s_eax is set to 1 and s_a3d is set to 0

    i use headphones or 2 speakers
    (but always use the 2 speaker preset)

    thx, Nehal

    for 3d sound on headphones use the headphone preset...it does sound a lot better...

    for to eax, isn't there a check box in audio setup in HL?.
    If there is more to it than that I would like to hear about it as a play HL a lot (DOD).


    PS the -32bpp command line option is very nice, it enables 32 bit colour which may sound pointless but on a ati 8500 it allows anti aliasing to work and also makes dithering/smoke effects look a lot better...
