... oOo: i dont see how turning the sound up would make it run smoother, because logic would tell you if im getting bad fps, then turning hardware accel on and boosting the channels would constitute even more cpu power usage. maybe you were joking ....anyways sw-14 i tried putting the sound on the lowest possible settings with the lowest amount of channels...and i hopped back into the server i had been playing on all night with the lag. I must say, i was able to drive and fly with minimal lag, a definate improvement. however, since i turned the sound down so low i cant hear any of the sound effects except for firing weapons oOo: i cant hear engine sounds, or helicopter sounds etc. this really detracts from the coolness of this game, as sound is an integral part of it. anyways i guess ill just have to live with this shitty sound in order to play without humoungus lag. kind of a give and take cry:
