SH sound problems, any ideas?

Argon · **SH sound problems, any ideas? -** 01-24-2003, 11:32 AM

Ok, I mentioned this in another post, but all of the new sounds for the new weapons in SH aren't working (all of the original weapons from AA work). They used to work, but some how they got screwed up, (probably some mod I loaded). I have since removed all of the latest mods, but its still not working. Everytime I use a new weapon, it says (in the console) "Uber sound missing..."

Should I:
a) Uninstall SH and reinstall it.
b) try to reinstall SH, w/o uninstalling it (it has that repair feature, i think?)
c) try to copy the pk3 file from the CD that contains the sounds (What pk3 file has the sound in it anyways?)

Thankyou, any help would be Apreciated.

Oh ya I downloaded Butters Real Sound for SH to see if it would help, but no luck. Anyways, good sound mod Butters, the Bar sounds great!! Although, when you get hit it sound more like Homer saying "Doh" instead of somebody in pain, kinda funny.

I would wait until the patch releases within 1-2 weeks to see if EA patched their mistakes in ubersound.scr. It could be this, it could not be this. But it's not effecting your game in means that you can't play, even though it is fustrating, so why not just wait it out? Thats what I would do, IMO.

What kind of sound card do you have?

I have a SoundBlaster Live! and I had the same problem. Here something to try if you have the same card:

1.Go to Programs, Creative, Audio HQ, Sound Font.

2.Select the third tab, Options. You can allocate a little less than half of your system RAM to the sound font cache.

This helps, but does not cure the sound dropping out.

Yep I think this is my problem, I downloaded the AAN, map packs and put them in the MainTA folder. Should all of the mods/maps for SH go in the main folder then?

Ok, I think this might of solved my problem, thank you Strik0r.

every map should go in the main folder, doesn't matter if it's made for mohaa or sh. i had that problem too, logic doesn't work too well when ea is involved.

I have my maps and player skins in MAIN. I have all my other mods (blood, sound, weapon skins, etc...) in MAINTA. Everything works fine for me.

You have to check your maps. Look for maps, especially Omaha 2, that might be causing a conflict with your ubersound.scr and other custom sounds. If they're in the map, delete em, the ubdersound.scr I mean. If not then just re-install.

Put all my maps in the "Main" . Only thing I have in "Mainta" is a scope mod. , cause it wouldn't work for SH in the "Main". All the maps work fine for me, the only sound problem I have is the Enfield sound does not always work, hopefully EA will fix that with the next patch. Yeah right!

Argon · 01-24-2003, 07:35 PM

yep that was the problem, i had maps in the mainta folder. i moved them all to main and it works fine. Thanks guys for the help.

Hey check out my buddies website, its been up for a while, but its pretty good. Basically he mapped the stock AA maps for people who are new and are trying to get their bearing straight.
