My sound goes out when I run AHII. Typically one element will go out first, like no gun sound for several minutes. Sometimes it’s the motor sound. Sometimes the game is silent, I’m playing deaf, and then I’ll fire rockets for the first time, and have rocket only sound. Then I’ll take hits for the first time and get that sound (and only that sound). It’s hard to predict what or when a sound will go out, but usually within 5 to 10 minutes of playing. One time I was able to get sound back by manning a gun, firing and then replaning. Usually once it goes completely, I can’t get it back without shutting AHII down and restarting it.
At first I thought that this had to do with installing more RAM, but I think that I may have installed one of the patches around the same time this developed. (The first week or so of AHII I had no sound problems).
1- I’ve been having problems with stuttering and very poor frame rates in very busy furballs, but I think that it has gotten better with patches or my new RAM.
