I played Swamp Zombies on Windows 7 and it sounded fine. Did Aprone find a way around the broken Directx 3d virtualization issues?

Hi Shaun,

that's because DirectSound 8 is broken on Windows 7. Shades of Doom,
GMA Tank Commander, and Sarah all have audio problems with Windows 7
and Windows 8 because DirectSound lost its 3d virtualization when
Microsoft updated their mixer support. Microsoft's answer is upgrade
to XAudio2, but of course no one is doing that yet. However, XAudio2
has a few bugs of its own I am not happy about, but anyway  the issue
with Shades of Doom etc is Directsound.

Cheers!

straight in front of me or behind me yes I could play it without the
panning effects but it would be quite hard to do so.
