Or maybe the Audigy2 drivers interfear with the onboard sound when he enable it. |
i uninstalled the drivers for the audigy2 after i took card out, then rebooted and enabled onboard sound in bios then installled the latest AC97 drivers, funny thing is i can play the game fine with sound disabled ingame using onboard or with Audigy, turn it back on then exit to desktop, i've also tried with sound acceleration turned right down also, its deffo a sound issue otherwise why play ok without it. Only other thing is i'm using a x800xtpe.
Only thing i gained so far is a spare Audigy2 ZS that now aint doing nothing and the onboard seems just as good,lol
anyway until a patch is release (and crack for the patch,lol) this is comming of the Pc |
you might try searching thru the registry for any audigy or sb references and deleting them that way..uninstalling drivers never seems to completely clean it. anyways that is if you think its worth it. im a little interested in finding out whats causing it but not enough to wipe windows clean or anything like that. guess ill wait for a patch from somebody. anyways i have a dozen or so newish games im playing with zero hw probs whatsoever so ill just stick with those in the meantime. |
just ran Driver cleaner Pro on creative setup and it found loads, BUT still no joy, crashes with sound enabled about 10/30 secs into game

Am I the only one feeling slightly bored by this this "American history/colonialism" scenario? Maybe this is interesting for amateur historians, I personally would prefer sci-fi (like in Earth2160), fantasy (like DragonShard) or present war scenario (Act Of War) in a RTS game.
I am wondering why the designers made this decision for AoE3.
The "Age Of Mythology" setting had much more appeal in my opinion.
But thats all a question of taste, I presume...

When I start the game, it crashes to the desktop. All newest driver installed.
The logtext says: "nvCPL is unavailable".
Diagnistics starts (no video/ no sound) also doesn´t help.
Sys: ATi 9800 xt, Asus A7N8X Deluxe, SB Audigy
Maybe someone has the same probs?

Well, I like colonial time era stuff...like Cossacks and shit. I mean, the style of war is completely stupid. I mean, lining up infront of each other and shooting each...but on the other hand, I like that idea for videogames...like big fuckin battles with "line formation" military style crap - its awesome sitting there watching guys get blown apart by cannons and arrows and shit
I still have yet to play this game, I have had it since release...hmm, maybe i should install it now but...i dunno, to many games... |

Guess it sucks to be me.
I've been a fan of RTS games ever since I bought my first copy of Command & Conquer.
I enjoyed the previous Age of Empire games, and I've been looking forward to this one.
However, and no full-of-itself we-don't-care-about-users software giant will be able to convince me otherwise, I will -NOT- replace my Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Windows XP in order to play a single game.
Sorry Microsoft, but once again you have gravely disappointed me, and you lost a potential buyer for one of your products by your ignorance. Now, instead of trying the game out and buying it to stack it nicely on my shelf if I liked it, I will devote time to trying to reverse-engineer your shitty OS-blocker and make this game playable.

Awesome game; I had forgotten what it was like to sit 6 hours straight playing a game untill I played this. I am glad the game is back to its roots, no more mythology bull#$%@. Between this one and Codename Panzers Phase 2, I am all set for some serious gaming this month. My AOE3 copy should arrive today hopefully so I can try multiplayer. Did any of you get goosebumps when the game started. I did when I saw the intro. Way to go Microsoft and Ensemble, you guys are the best.....

yep tried them they didn't do anything for me, also if you read the readme its states that there is know issues with Creative cards, what a effing joke. I've never come across a game that has done this before and they seriously need some new programmers or even better testers.

Arrg, couldn't get this game to work over Direct IP or Hamachi. 
Forward ports 2300 - 2305 and 28800 - 28810, anyone else having better luck?
EDIT: Apparently it _does_ work if AoE3 binds itself to your Hamachi address and not your local address, but if it binds to your local address, you're out of luck.
So the question is, how to get AoE3 to use Hamachi address instead of local address?

Ok, I may be going crazy here, but I can not find a "Start" or "Play" button after setting up a multiplayer LAN game. After human and computer players are in and all ready boxes are clicked green, still no option shows up to start the game. The only button I see is the "Leave Game" button on the top right of the screen.
What's the deal? Anyone get a LAN game working?

nevermind...I figured it out. Apparently all slots need to be filled and ready, then the game automatically begins...no buttons needed. I've been use to selecting 8 players regardless of actual # to get the larger maps. Guess that doesn't work here. Later.
