F1RS sound problem

2 posts by 2 people · 19 May 1998 - 19 May 1998

Hi all, Just got the sim, and I love it. With patch 1.09 everything looks real good. However, I have one small problem. When running in a race, I have a problem hearing the revs of my own car over the other cars in the race. The volume of the other cars are too high. Is there a fix for this problem? BTW, I have an old SoundBlaster AWE32 sound card. /Harald
A very, very simple fix, young Harald. Go into the F1RS directory and you will find a folder called CPA, then another called DLL. Open up DLL and you'll see an INI file called snd_cpa.ini. Open that file in Wordpad and amend the following lines.... SXD_DIST_SATUR=5 SXD_DIST_FADE=75 To read........... SXD_DIST_SATUR=1 SXD_DIST_FADE=11 Try that. if you don't like it, simply increase the SATUR=1 to a value up to 9say) 5 maximum and the FADE=11 to a value of 15 maximum. DO NOT REDUCE either value below 1 and 11, otherwise you won't hear you own engine!! :-) Have fun!
