Double-speed sounds!

poodles · Post by **poodles** » Mon Mar 20, 2006 1:55 am

Finally managed to get the whole route installed this weekend with no major problems so far. I must just say what an absolutely stunning route, (it's been said loads of times before I know lol); very well done to all those involved in making it

1 minor glitch I'm having... I've installed version 3.2 patch file which converts the custom sound files at clapham and waterloo, although when I get to these areas the sounds apear to be playing at double-speed! its quite funny to listen to actually, sounds like the station announcer has inhaled helium before going on shift!

anyone know how to sort this out?

thanks

Unfortunately that problem isnt one that is covered in the support pack / forum sticky. Someone else mentioned the same problem to me just last weekend. Maybe James Porter or Dave Corfield will come up with a solution. It seem to have only started since the patch which reduced some sounds from stereo to mono to stop crashes

Just in case he isn't watching this thread i'll drop him a PM for you.

Do U Have a Stand alone Sound Card or On Board?

I would advise you & all other with this route to get a Sound card I have found far better FPS & over all Sound improvements since fitting an Â£8 5.1 Card

Hi
Possibly still says stereo in the sms files?..........take that line out and the sounds will play fine.
Cheers

Jon,

You know your stuff mate! There is a patch3-3 coming with some other minor fixes included, so the corrected sms files will be in that patch.
