Wowie. Now i have the option to use x-fi in BF2, but it crashes when i try to apply using X-Fi on Audigy2zs. Guys you MUST use the default bf2openal.dll for bf2 or it will NOT start with these new drivers.
BUT! They seem amazing! BF2 has NEVER been so smooth and good sounding. Running options hardware/high/eax on in Audio options in BF2. Going back to the battlefield. Good luck.

I think so
![]() Them not working with older openal.dll and ONLY working with the default BF2 bf2openal.dll means they are doing something new. There seems to be way more ambience and more fluid transition in surround between the speakers in bf2 with these new drivers. The second version is also for 64 bit, the top one only 32bit, so for 32 bit OS choose top one. Newer build it seems.

Well my BF2 seemed incredibly smooth over the last beta drivers, and I made sergeant tonite in BF2 (25000 points) so i am chuffed tonite hehe. Yes, it did actually seem much smoother, but i havent tried any other games yet, so it will be interesting to see.
And i only had to uninstall the drivers using the ctzapp in the new drivers, reboot (didnt have to uninstall creative software). Booted, installed with ctzapp, and the audigy4 software i use with my a2zs worked fine.

There is no info on the updates yet, but i am guessing these fixes are in this driver seeing the change in BF2 (since the BF2 openal performance update was in the beta driver).

No. I am just using the software from the normal A4 iso (pax iso from these forums) and these drivers. Havent used pax drivers for a long time since the betas came a while ago.
Using Audigy2ZS. I can test on my bros pc tomorrow since he has normal Audigy2 and same software setup as me.

There must be some other issue then. I run 1280x960 6xAA everything max. Its smooth with ZERO stutter. Maybe do a complete uninstall of drivers with drivercleaner etc etc and try again?
Also i couldnt run bf2 with everything max with 1 gig ram without stutter. 1.5 gigs ram got rid of the stutter. Also running all sound options high uses more ram. That might be your problem.

Did anyone try these drivers with HL2? They mess up the sound royally for me, although they're sweet in BF2. It may be my HL2 install that's crappy, since I haven't played it in a few months, and did a windows reinstall in the meantime, so I would like to hear if someone else have them working well with HL2.

if you go to www.totalbf2.com you will see is that several players are using them. All they did was: Installed with the new version 5.12.02.1161 X-Fi/Audigy 1/2 drivers by running oalinst.exe in the \Drivers\wdm\common\i386 subdirectory of the driver archive ** they claim they can hear things that they have never hear before. Wow maybe they are hearing dead people.

Do what do people think of these..... turning your audigy into a x-fi? i am just curious. But from my understand you cannot use the "hidden" X-Fi feature in the audio options right for us Audigy 2 ZS users that are modding these drivers into our cards.
