Audio from enemy is either:
- missing: No audio whatsoever, no steps and no weapon buzz.
Example: http://mr-clan.net/tempz/21_audio_malfunction.flv
(Use vlc to playback flv files.)
No enemy walk sound for an example.
This is made from live recording when playing - What I see+hear is what u see.
Issue doesnt show in demo.

- Deleyed: You hear an enemy jump behind you, turn around and bam he is in your face. Watching mvds you see that enemy didnt sneak up nor moved fast. Just normal jumping. Problem doesnt show in demos, there you hear it from far away.
Aint got a decent liverecording of issue.

Nub theory: If there is a big number of clients on server, it trashes some audio.

You said that demos sounds fine. Maybe its not sound that changed but players' position.

it's the same for me. often to play and not hear enemies near or hear shots fired. even sometimes i don't get the audio for when the team scores.

Re: Audio missing/delayed

my nubish teory is:

I too had this from time to time with 2.0a, mostly when I captured the enemy's flag. Usually there is an announcement saying "you got the flag" but quite often this wasn't played. I can't recall that I had this with 2.1!

Been sitting on this for a few hours.

Are you sure this does not happen on demos? Any hints to reproduce would be awesome.

Re: Audio missing/delayed

never had the feeling of missing sounds in demos and i seen a lot of demos, however ingame it was there time to time.

I also can say this error wasn't in 1.03, otherwise, no idea, we never managed to get it stable.

Re: Audio missing/delayed

MVD's has tons of missing sound effects. Other than that, welcome to the dark side skull.

Re: Audio missing/delayed

MVD is a big bad hack to bypass the engine limitations. Guess it's still better than being limited to one view.

Will leave this open for now. Please report back on 2.2 if the issue is still present.

Edit: I mean issues with audio, not MVD.
