Siege and Echo...

[S-Gray]

Does anyone else get the Echo Effect in CS_Siege, while playing and going onto a New Map?

If so is there a way to fix it while still in the game (without shutting down CS)

 

[Wilier]

Yes I do, and no there aint.

K?

 

[S-Gray]

Crap lol, ah well... maybe it'll be fixed in the so called "1.4" update.. lol

 

[~YuckFou~]

I may be wrong....... but it's supposed to be there. Adds atmosphere or something like that

 

[S-Gray]

nooo, i aint talkin about when your actually PLAYING siege, i mean the map AFTER siege, you still get the Echo from Siege?? lol

 

[Ch3tan]

If you have an SB live soundcard disable EAX and renable it on the map after siege.

That of course requires the ability to alt tab out of CS, which I can do

 

[S-Gray]

Well, i am gettin a SB Live! Card very very soon, so i guess it will be sorted then, and you also said that you could Alt n' Tab, do you mean when youi come back, the sound STILL works?

 

[Ch3tan]

Yes.

I think this depends largely on your setup, is i run in d3d mode I can alt/tab no probs, if I run in opengl it fooks up. Unfortunately gl is much better for me in game (voodoo3 3000).

So maybe you can......... maybe you can't

I just installed my SB Live! Card, but Ch3tan you said Disable EAX, do you know where to locate it? i didnt get a manual or anythin with mine lol?

 

[Ch3tan]

I use the "play eax game" preset in the speaker control panal. You can select eax disabled, light or normal effects.

 

[~YuckFou~]

Its also in the Options in HL

I was told that if you type: room_type <1-30> you can change the sound on seige (or any map) dunno bout any other sound formats that HL uses, MisterDead told me that one on cs_prospeedball last night and it works just fine!

Try room_type 27 ewwww

Dont use EAX at all, it makes the entire game sound echoy like siege. I have it turned off and still sometimes get the echo, but only after about 10minutes of play, and it usually goes by the end. Just a small bug in the map I guess.
Try doing a retry in console if it is still echoing on the next map.

 

[Grom]

Do s_reverb 0 before you come near the trigger area which makes the room type change, or before you enter the map.

Doesn't always work, sadly :/

I had this problem for ages, until someone pointed out to me that playing death/violence games wasn't quite appropriate on a sunday morning in church.

Tom:touch:

 

[Deady]

Yes xs is correct

room_type 0 will remove all echo effects that maps like siege add.

 

[exxxie]

See? I'm not as stupid as you look!1l

 

[old.©h®°n°]

dunno wot ur talkin bout exactly but the command
"stopsound" (without speechmarks) in the console resets the sounds and that may solve it.
dunno tho :/
