Sound Issues (only 12 channels..?)

[Kargoz]

Is there any way to fix this? Whenever theres alot going on and many sounds all at once..the game just wont play them all. Very annoying especially in BGs, raids...

I've tried running the game in XP(sp2 and 3) mode..doesn't help.

Adding a line

Code: Select all

SET SoundNumChannels "128"

in your config.wtf? with a value like 128/64/32 ?

Or ingame

Code: Select all

/run SetCVar("Sound_NumChannels",128)

?

You need to type this in your chat (only one time)

/console SoundMemoryCache 128
/console SoundMaxHardwareChannels 128
/console SoundSoftwareChannels 128

You can add this one if you want too:

/console SoundMixRate 48000

If you can't get 128 channels to work, it might be a good time to upgrade your toaster.

i had no problem before updating to 8.1


edit : problem solved, i've done what was suggested here and i've put compatibility option to XP SP3.
Everything has returned to normal.
