I'm getting complaints from Creative X-FI sound card owners that the sound is cutting out during a game:
http://www.newstargames.com/newstarforum/showthread.php?p=103976
It seems to be occurring when the car goes off the race track, at which point the game will stop the sound channel playing a looped sound then reallocate it in order to start a different looped sound...
If oldterrain <> terrain
If chn_MyTerrain
chn_MyTerrain.Stop()
chn_MyTerrain = Null
EndIf
Select terrain
Case CTERRAIN_TARMAC
chn_MyTerrain = AllocChannel()
chn_MyTerrain.SetVolume(GetVolume())
PlaySound(snd_Engine, chn_MyTerrain)
Case CTERRAIN_BLANK
chn_MyTerrain = AllocChannel()
chn_MyTerrain.SetVolume(GetVolume())
PlaySound(snd_Grid, chn_MyTerrain)
Case CTERRAIN_PITLANE
chn_MyTerrain = AllocChannel()
chn_MyTerrain.SetVolume(GetVolume())
PlaySound(snd_Recharge, chn_MyTerrain)
End Select
EndIf
The really strange thing is that this causes all other channels to stop playing, except for one (the narrator's). Unfortunately I don't have one of these cards to test the game. Any ideas?
