Hello

Is there a way to use EAX capabilities (from SoundBlaster Live 5.1) with
Quake 3 ? 3d sound could be great with this game ?

thanks for your answer

Setup - System - Sound. Turn on A3D. Might be what you want.

Badders.

There is a patch to activate the A3D in the game. It worked buggy with the
former Pointreleases, dont know if it worked proper with the latest patch.
If you are interested in, I will search my database for you.

I download the file from the below side and the a3d was available but the
voice is so treble.

I have Sblive 5.1 and Sony Dolby Digital amplifier I have connect the PC
with the amplifier with optical cable.

What can I do with the *.dll, can I find a better drivers for the Quake??

the webpage says that this could not work with version 1.27 since the a3d
functions seems to be disactivated...
and my q3 is patched (1.27g)...

do I have to return to 1.17 pointrelease...? (and is there a way to do so
without re-installing completly q3)
thx

You can revert back to 1.17 by deleting the pak4.pk3 and pak5.pk3 files from
your baseq3 folder, and reinstall the 1.17 pointrelease. Problem is you
won't be able to connect to 1.27 servers and you can't play 1.27 mods.
