so are there any some kinda list of soundcard that works? either its official or not. or at least, which creative sound card that did work for you?
how disappointing, its my favorite game series of all time. surround sure worked on my ME from trilogy on PS3
It worked on my Creative Sound Blaster X-fi Xtreme Audio. I'm not sure what the other incompatible card was, but I think it's an older Creative Audigy.
Now that I think of it, there's a software solution by Creative that allows software emulated EAX on onboard audio. I once tried a free demo and it worked on integrated Realtek. Played ME1 with surround and environmental audio. http://www.creative.com/oem/products/software/x-fimb.asp
X-fi MB works on Asus and ASrock boards. Trial location: http://asrock.com/feature/SoftwareSuite/index.asp
- ApprovedThank you so much, gonna try it right away with my motherboard. Already sold my DX ☹️
And still deciding to buy SBZ or not. Gonna update you if the software works.I recently got a new PC and this thread reminded me I wanted surround sound in Mass Effect. I have an ASRock board with Realtek HD, and bought X-Fi MB3 from Amazon (the store page vanished after I checked out so I can't link it).
It's working beautifully. Dialog comes through the central speaker, all five channels are being used, and the audio is overall a bit crisper than before.
I hope your experiences are similar.
