minor problem

posted on May 7th, 2003, 11:31 am

im sure i installed the prog right not sure it can be done wrong.
i am getting no sound in game for some reason, so far i have done instant action with the borg on a game map that was in the download. game likes to pause for a second here and there but no biggie just cant get any sound.

other than that great mod..........................

hm.. check your soundsettings, perhaps 3d sound is activated, but your sound card doesn't support it or the volume is 0.

try to download the newst beta 1.1, it fixes some errors in the setup programm if you use a armada1.1 cd.. perhaps this solves your problem too.

if you use have a non english version of armada or one of the 'newer' armada II cd's then it may fix your problem by downloading beta 1.1

btw. has anybody installed fleetops with a non english version? it theoreticly should work, but i have no report about it yet

sound card is a onboard version from the soyo main board it works fine with all other programs including cnc generals, armada 1 and 2, for some reason its not working with the mod. could the cd have uploaded wrong files during the load. i am useing the new patch also.
