Microphone Directsound Or Wave

<div class="IPBDescription">I need wave</div> Hi,

I've got a great microphone that works fine in teamspeak, ventrillo etc using the same codec as HL (speex same quality) but in HL it doesn't work.

I figured out from the afformentioned programs that it sounds crap with directsound but fine with wave. How can I change this option in HL.

Thanks,

Meto

    That sounds like it would be with Dsound so better make that a 0?

    Seems I was wrong :/

    Codec = Speex 7.2kbit used in HL and teamspeak.

    Teamspeak: Crystal Clear
    HL: Sounds slurred and most words are impossible to understand


    Can someone post a link to the old sound configuration program that came with CS or a complete voice guide. I've tried tweaking the settings by trial and error (and nearly all of them at some point now) and had no luck.

    I really want voice because it's much easier to com.

    hopefully someone will tell me how to update it automatically but I mention the things that work for me when I am playing: <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=70829' target='_blank'>http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/in...showtopic=70829</a>

    The common stuff is:
    voice_dsound 0
    cl_cmdrate 99999
    cl_rate 99999
    cl_updaterate 99999

    I don't know why they work but it seems to do the trick.....

    I have similar settings yes. Stopped me cl_cmdrate 10 h4xing <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    It's something else. I sound like I am talking through a sock in HL but perfectly clear with same codecs in other programs.

    Any other settings?

    I've tried nearly all the voice_ things.
