Sound is messed up.

This post is regarding the sound of Demigod in game play. I am experienced what is best described as static or crackling noises in my headset when i play demigod especially against AI. I wish there was a way i could record the noises i hear but unfortunately i cannot.

My sound has never acted as such and everything including sound drivers are up to date. I dont think there are any solutions, but i'm just hoping it is something still wrong with the beta.

Like i said above, i only seem to notice it when i play against AI. The more AI, the worse it is. If needed, i can try to provide more information as i play the game more and try to slim it down a bit. However this should be looked into and possibly other players may have it as well.

I get the same problem, usually happens half way through the game and continues to the end. I have a Creative Fatality SC so this makes no sense to me.

i can vouch for this. Stupid me, i made a topic about it before looking. But yeah, crackling and quiet sound. Music is just fine. And so are the blips in the interface.

A number of owners of X-Fi cards have come to experience what is known as a constant popping and crackling noise during use of the cards. Creative has attributed the case to be NVIDIA nForce motherboards, however many other users who do not use these motherboards continue to experience the sound issues. Creative has not provided a fix as of yet for this. Nevertheless there are unofficial recommendations how to solve these issues:

Move the sound card to another PCI expansion slot and reinstall the sound card's drivers
Replace native disk controller drivers with generic Windows ones
Update the motherboard's BIOS to the latest version (including "beta" versions)
Set the PCI Latency to 96 or greater
Use the X-Fi card only in "Audio Creation Mode" with "Bit-matched playback" option on
Overclock the PCI bus to 40 MHz instead of 33 MHz
Replace all of the capacitors on the card (At the expense of warranty)
Deactivate X-Fi "Crystalizer"

The newly revised EMU20K2 chipset used by the Titanium line of cards is said to solve the problem, further confirming the above PCI bus related fixes.^[18] i can not confirm this. titanium line cracks like hell.
