"We are working on a fix for the sound problem now. The delays between sounds were a bit too long. Some machines seem to be more sensitive to it. We had two playtest groups and nobody commented on it though so this is was not a problem for everyone

This is NOT sound file related. If anyones busily trimming sound files to make them sound "better" you may cause yourself more trouble when we issue the patch

Don"

The delays in the sound reproduction were due to added millisecond delays in the code which we have reduced or removed. There WERE slight delays at the start of some of the sounds but they only added a very small % to the overall delay. The EXE we are testing now brings the game much closer to what you were used to in the DOS version and that is without trimming the sound files. The sequence now when a tank is hit and destroyed is "Hit-BOOM". ( i.e. just as fast as you could say "Hit-BOOM")

Excellent!!
Thank You sir.

Re: The sound problem culprits as far as I can tel

I installed SPMBT on my laptop and I noticed that the sound problem was not as bad and it played better, still there was some sound problems, but it generally played better, now my question is, Did the play testers use more laptops or did they use home PC's. I know that my sound card in my laptop isn't the best, but you would think that a SB creative card would have no problem.

There may have been some who used a laptop but for the most part they were desktops.

Re: The sound problem culprits as far as I can tel

It has wav files in it.

Re: The sound problem culprits as far as I can tel

I don't know if it is online version or not, I just have my CD that I bought when it came out, but I will try the other, is it a download version of SP3?

Re: The sound problem culprits as far as I can tel

My sp3 CD has 2 verisons on it.
it has regular sp3 on it, and also the version you can play online.
