No sound effects in FF7 in Win2000

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

 

First I'd like to thank everyone that (by posting messages to this very forum) helped me get FF7 to work at all in Windows 2000 laugh

 

Direct3D works, all the FMV's work (and are drawn the right way up ;)), MIDI works but sound effects don't.

 

I have SP3 (with the newest ACT obviously) on a P3 with an SB Live! Value sound card, Liveware 3.0 and DirectX 8.1. I've tried reinstalling FF7, reinstalling Liveware, installing the latest version of Liveware (which reduced the MIDI polyphony to about 3 notes ;() and reinstalling DirectX, but the sound effects simply refuse to work. The strange thing is I can hear the chocobo sound when I use the test button in FF7Config...

 

Has anyone had this problem before? I didn't find anything searching on this forum, and even less googling, but as popular as FF7 seems to be here someone has to have at least a suggestion. Thank's in advance laugh

First, welcome to the forums. I really hope you get the game working correctly, it's a masterpiece in my book.

 

What I would recommend trying, and keep in mind that I don't have FF7 for the PC, would be lowering the DirectX sound acceleration.
