Re: Footstep sounds in game
So if you're using one of those so called 7.1 headsets this is why your foot steps break they use some hodge podge math to make VIRTUAL SURROUND SOUND
Now the Source Engine and many other engines already come with a Binaural 3D sound renderer then you come along with your extra Fake Sound and lose a bunch of stuff because Math is bad.
Those Usb Headset connectors that Lodgitech and Razer and others sell no matter the cost or what you were charged for one of those headsets USB tiny dongles those things are rubbish, Generally all are rebranded cheap china premade drivers and the chipset inside that dongle has probably been used 50x over on all other brands aswell it costs them 0.10 Cents to have it in the headset, Still not as Cheap as the Rotary encoder Logitech put in their Pro Mice except for the 900 series with an actual scroll and optical encoder.
The Cheap Realtek onboard Chipsets are miles better than those USB dongles, which if those are on the same USB bus line are sensitivy to the 1000hz polling rate of the mouse on some motherboards it's a filter thing idk rubbish begets trash.... "Peels of random Asmedia USB controllers from motherboards throws on ground and burns them"
Don't use Fake Surround Sound Devices / Drivers
