Sound Problem in Parasite Eve 2

Stalgren · Feb 19, 2006

I used the search function and no similar problems were able to solve my problem.

During the in game cutscenes (Not the FMV's) in Parasite Eve 2 the sound will skip in places, Fall out of sync, And sometimes double up on itself creating an echo effect. Outside of all of these in game cutscenes the sound is perfect.

I have tried changing sound plugins and cd plugins and even video plugins. I have tried making an ISO out of my game CD and it was still there.

I am using Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.8, Eternal SPU plugin 1.41, and PE. Op. S CDR driver 1.4

I have a writable cd-r/rw writable drive and about 2.8ghz pentium. Sound card is a Soundblaster live 24 bit

what did you make the ISO with? have you tried another emulator? does it do it when you use Pete's Dsound audio plugin?

What are the settings of those plugins?

Have you tried using the sound plugin without the special fixes?

Here's a tip as well: use Alt+Print Screen when taking screens of the plugin settings. It'll save you time.

Stalgren · Feb 22, 2006

Yes I have tried it without the fixes. With only some of the fixes, and with different combinations of options.

Still need help dont want this to fall

In your sound plugin under the Audio out method set SPUasync and set mode to smooth.

Hmm that didn't seem to do it. Still the same skipping at second intervals. Almost like a metronome ticking. And the sound doubling up at places is still there. Im wondering if it might be the cd. But I dont remember problems playing it on my playstation

Have you tried using some other sound plugin (eg.? P.E.Op.S DSound Audio Driver 1.9).

Stalgren · Mar 3, 2006

Yes I have tried using some others. Petes and the built in one and the same thing happened albeit with much poorer sound quality. I have tried changing cd plugins too and making an ISO

Set SPUasync mode to option "Wait". Also try to change the Reverb settings in your sound plugin (Eternal).

Stalgren · Mar 3, 2006

Setting it to wait seems to have done the trick. Thanks
