Audio thingy worked fine for me Smile still, the crash "workaround" worked for me for 5 minutes, then the game really crashed and I had two error report windows and no game window anymore. Well w/e, I don't like those fire-from-cover games anyways.

is it just me, or are gunshots only coming out the left or right speakers, and never both?

I blame poor audio quality on the use of the crappy Vista sound manager instead of directsound + EAX.

Vista is not to blame. OpenAL works great.

Could you elaborate on how exactly you set it up? I happen to remember at least one user who reported it didn't work for him.

just follow the instructions, the dude that's hosting has to be able to host and not be blocked by FW or router. I thought it didn't work at first when I tried to connect to somebody and got connection failed. But when I hosted we got in a game, got my head blown off :*(

that's odd

the game's working fine.. no crashes here and it runs perfectly fluid at pretty high settings at 1280x1024.
I was pleasently surprised with the performance, didn't expect it to run this good.

oddly enough, I hear gunshots coming from both speakers.

The performance really is great though. my pc is only average.. core 2 duo 2.8ghz, geforce 7900 gtx.. and it's really running great.

Not even Windows' own FW? Isn't it possible to make exceptions, don't wanna run my computer without any FW.

What system you both are on (XP or Vista)?

Will try that when i install the game. Never heard of this battle.lan btw.

I'm guessing you can just open the ports that gears uses to let it play. I disabled AVG FW just in case. dunno if it will work with it enabled because I didn't try, there's also a game mode button on the AVG FW, maybe that will do the trick, anyways if you're trying it wouldn't hurt to disble the firewall for a few minutes just to see if you get in a game, then you can try with the firewall and tweak if needed

Okay, thanks. Just one more thing, you still owe me the answer to what OS you have, XP or Vista.

nah, UE3 engine is really good at scaling. My friend is using an AMD 64 2.0gfz, x800GTO, 1 gig memory and some sound card and her computer does fine on low.

Just started playing, did the first level. No problems whatsoever. Runs like a dream with everything on max on 1680x1050 on my setup (Core 2 Duo @2.7GHz and 8800GTS). The only thing that annoys a little are short but nasty hickups whenever the game loads something. Dunno what's so hard about doing seamless data streaming, especially on a PC with an abundance of system memory. Another thing is, vsync doesn't work. Set it to on but still get ugly tearing. Am i the only one?

I'll look into it when my buddy gets on-line. We should be able to get it to work since the program is working.

How's that possible? Did you change anything? Think hard. Wink
