Almir Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Don't know if its a hardware issue of software or oblivion itself but every time i start walking and cast a spell like a healing spell the sound stutters but when i don't move/walk the sound is fine this also applies with everything i do like swinging a sword. My oblivion had mods so i decided to uninstall oblivion and made sure everything was removed and the ini files where also untouched and i updated all my drivers (all where updated already but just to make sure). So i installed oblivion once again clicked new game and went outside and started walking and casting your first restoration spell (can't remember the name) and the sound issue was still there :S i tried a couple of fixes like the Unofficial patch or the quite feet MAX or changing ini settings for audio like from hardware to software and my own soundcard settings i disable all effect (i have a Creative X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro Series) still it didn't work! So i was wondering if somebody here could help me fix my problem its totally ruining the gaming experience. Thx in advance!

Tomlong54210 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I assume you have onboard sound. Turn down Hardware Acceleration in your dxdiag menus, and use the following tweaks: http://tesivpositive.animolious.com/index.php?page=oblivion_ini_tweaks#OnBoardSound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be something with oblivion or is it still my hardware/software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a 3D Sound option in the Oblivion.ini, in case you are interested. Just search the file for "3D". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomlong54210 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 is it bUseSoftwareAudio3D=0 what does this do?If you have the hardware to support it, setting that to 1 will give you 3D sound (which should be something of an upgrade.) 3D Sound - http://www.3dsoundsurge.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
