Just tried hardware EAX...
...and it sounds HORRIFIC. I had previously had EAX turned off, not knowingly (thought it was on...) and turned it on just now and tried a game. Take ALL the battlefield sounds, park them in front of you, make them all staticy, and make it so they drown out your own weapon, and that's what it sounded like! What the hell?
I'm going to try it on Software with EAX on, to see if that helps... |

If you have on-board sound use software. If you have a sound card use hardware. Also check the settings on your card to see if you have EAX checked.

Tried Software with EAX and to my recollection it sounds exactly the same as it does without.

Alright, checked it out, followed your directions to the letter and now my sound device is incompatible and BF2 no longer picks it up. Tried to delete the Audio.con, but no luck there either.

When I download the openal exe, do I run it anywhere or do I have to place it in a specific folder first THEN run it and if so, what folder exactly? | |

You just run it.
Sofad, I reverted to the original BF2OpenAL.dll; Currently I have the updated OpenAL.dll in system32, and BF2's original in it's native folder. Currently, on high sound and EAX enabled, some sounds sound muffled if they're on the other side of a building. Is this EAX taking effect? |
