Loud noise in Vista? Heres your fix

Recommended Posts

It didn't work for me either so I just went to Realtek site. Here they are directly for those that don't want to search after not being able to get them from first post.

 

Realtek Fix:

Step 1 - Goto Realtek site: http://www.realtek.com/ then click on "HD Audio Codec Driver" on the bottom right side under Quick Links.

 

Step 2 - Hit "I accept to the above."

 

Step 3 - Download "3D SoundBack Beta 0.1" (there site can be slow, be patient)

 

Step 4 - Install, and goto C:\Program Files (x86)\Realtek\3D Sound Back Beta0.1

 

Step 5 -

Open program

Click ADD GAME

Game: DCS

Game path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Eagle Dynamics\Ka-50\bin

Click OK

Done.

 

For CREATIVE ALCHEMY

It is the same deal as Realtek, so I will post short verison. Just go to http://support.creative.com/downloads/download.aspx?nDownloadId=10922 . Hit AGREE, download it, and install/use it just like realtek mentioned above.

 

The Creative was 100% fix for me, the realtek fixed it a good 98% i'd say. Once in awhile the sound is just a "tad" higher, so i just open/close door or ext view then back into cockpit view but it was nothing like before I used these fixes, it was unbearable.

Your going to have to understand...these programs meant to get the abstract layer out of a dx9 based game into a dx10 environment arent exactly fool-proof, and most likely wont work 100% of the time. As a matter of fact, its either hit-or-miss with both alchemy and this realtek fix. Its worked only a handful of times for me in LOFC, although Ive never tried it in BS. Ill give it another shot later on.

It's actually going from DX9 to OpenAL - DX10 doesn't have much to do with it, as you can run DX9 in Vista alongside DX10 (not just backward compatibility - it's actually using DX9 dlls! - that's why you sometimes need to install the DX9 update in Vista before a game will work).

 

And I've had pretty consistent results with Alchemy - once you find the right settings for your particular setup for a game, it works every time.

 

EDIT - Not trying to sound snotty btw - just hope you guys can get it working because it is possible!

Ya, worked great for me...I hope it works for some others. The sound was so loud before I used these fixes that I thought my ears were going to bleed, it was massively loud lol. If it doesn't work for people that have the same problem, not sure what to say :(
