I was trying to find a ini file or some thing of that sort to see if I can enable it that way but I havent found it yet.
Edit I just found it.
Try and see if I can enable it that way.
Edit again.
If you go to your warhammer file/user and edit user settings its down at the bottom. Im goign to try and enable it though that and see if that works.
Update. I didn't notice a difference while enabling it. So i don't know, has anyone else tried it but notice a difference? |

I found info a few days ago on this matter. It appears the dev team disabled the EAX by default on purpose until they address some bugs with it. Hence way it's greyed out on Vista and XP OS's. Those who have got EAX going with Alchemy say it sounds worse than with it off. Which makes sense if the dev team disabled it to begin with. I can't imagine Mythic releasing WAR and not using OpenAL so Vista can use EAX without the Alchemy wrapper app. |

I think ive only used EAX in Neverwinter Nights. in the Witcher when I used EAX it sounded all distorted. But I like the effects from EAX though. |

I'm running Vista and was able to get EAX to work via Alchemy. I had to manually browse from within Alchemy to add WAR to its list. Then when I logged into the game I was able to turn on the EAX check box. It sounded awesome as I ran around and heard sounds from all directions. Cannon fire off to my left, for example. Then I got into combat, and quickly realized that I was hearing every sound twice, with about a half-second in between. NPC voices are the same. Listening closer, so were the rest of the world's sounds. In short, the cool factor vanished pretty darned quick, and I disabled EAX again until the devs fix it. |
