Increasing sound volume

by Tim Heldna · in Torque Game Engine · 04/17/2005 (1:56 am) · 1 replies

Hello Everyone,

Was hoping someone could tell me an easy way of increasing the overall volume in Torque. Is there a gain setting i can boost to amplify all sound in Torque without messing anything up?

I've managed to get rid of most sound related bugs (big thanks to Marcelo Oliveira for that) but feel that the overall sound volume is too low.
I say this cos when i play any other games like ut2004 the sound levels seem fine. Then when i use Torque i always have to increase the volume on my speakers. This is getting to be a bit of a pain cos after using Torque i go back to another application and have to turn my speakers back down again as to avoid waking up the whole neighbourhood.

I'm guessing there's something in one of the audio.cc files or perhaps even the open Al code. Any suggestions?

P.S. Does anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Tim

If I remember correctly the master volume is set to 80% by default, and I just set it to be 100% by default. Its set in one of the preference files in script I think.

Not the most glorious solution, but its what I did.
