Thank you very much! Looking forward to a full playthrough with your mod. I am very glad that you give DNF some love. It is not as good as Duke 3D but I like it anyway. Again, thank you very much for your work!

Hi! I have a question. The crosshair is gone after installing your mod. I deleted my savegames and config files from the userdata folder before installing the mod. I use the vulkan renderer. Do you have an idea why and how to bring back the crosshair?

Thank you!

Thank you for your answer. I will give it a deeper look. Maybe there is a way to enjoy 5.1 in this unbelievably awesome game. I will let you know if I discover something. Maybe OpenAL Soft is the answer. I give that a go. And let me say thank you, for this awesome game!! Really enjoy playing it!

I have taken a closer look and apparently I was wrong. Signal Lost uses Direct Sound, says the dev console. I don't know why the fmod.dll is in the bin folder. Sorry, I was a bit to hasty with my comments. I can force Lost Signal to inject Sound Blaster EAX capabilities through Creative Alchemy, and it clearly uses it, shown in the dsound.log generated from the dsound.dll injected by Alchemy. But no surround sound. Is it possible to activate DirectSound3D instead of DirectSound? Thanks

Hi, its me again. I have browsed my Signal Lost folder and discovered that Xash3D uses apparently FMod sound system API from Firelight Technologies. It is a good sound system used by many modern games. It is a little bit like EAX on a software level. It produces sound occlusion, sound reverberation and such and can generate a natural sound backdrop based on the environment the player is in. AND it is capable of 5.1 surround sound. Sorry for nerding out, but sound is a really big thing for me in games. That said, maybe you know a way to activate 5.1 sound in Signal Lost/Xash3D? Thanks

Hi LadyJaneThrace!

I have a question. Is it possible to activate 5.1 surround sound in Lost Signal? Or does Xash3D don't support 5.1. I loved the EAX environmental sound of the original Half Life. Oh man, that memory never fades away, playing Half Life for the first time on my new 3Dfx Voodoo 2 card with my Sound Blaster Live with EAX enabled. Oh man, that cold 98 November afternoon I played the first time. Awesome. I don't play with headphones, because I am so used to 5.1 sound since 20 years and I hate playing with headphones. And it is a shame for such an amazing game as Lost Signal, that it doesn't support surround sound and supports only stereo sound.

Keep up the good work and I am looking forward to play the full game!!

Yes. I tried the non Steam option too. Should I try to run it with the original exe? I can think of nothing else to try. Clearly something is wrong, but I don't know what. Have you any other ideas?

After installing the textures, I got a Steam Error: FEAR failed to start (error code 51). I tried starting the installer with admin rights, but it is the same. Btw. clean FEAR install. I also tried installing your gameplay mod before and after the textures, but the same error. Without the texture mod it plays fine. Can you help, please?

Hi eezstreet!

It's me again. I figured it out, and I feel kind of dumb. You need to edit the swat4x.ini IN!!! the SEF/system folder, not in the ContentExpansion/system. I don't know why I have thought that you need to edit swat4x.ini in the ContentExpansion/system folder. Sometimes I am kind of dumb. Sorry for not thinking before posting.

Again, thank you for your great work!!

Hi eezstreet!

First of all, very, very good mod. A must have to play SWAT 4 today. Awesome work! I love it!!

I have a question. Is it possible to get surround sound working in the mod? On vanilla I can inject dsound.dll through Creative Alchemy (I am using a Soundblaster Card) and editing swat4.ini, subsection ALAudio.ALAudioSubsystem, and turning on Use3DSound. You can also turn on EAX, but I think EAX isn't supported. But then I have 5.1 sound in vanilla. That doesn't work with the mod.

Ok, the mod uses the expansion .exe, swat4x.exe, so I figured I inject the dsound.dll from Alchemy in the ContentExpansion/system folder and editing swat4x.ini. I also edited default.ini in the SEF/system folder. Logically that should work. It works, sort of. The dsound log file says it works and is injected, but I have only stereo sound. I think it has something do to with speech recognition you implemented. Can you help me? Is it possible to activate surround sound with the mod?

Thank you very much for your awesome work on the mod!!

Hello Danny!

I am not the type that comments regularly and i am fairly new to your mod. I have played dozens of times through vanilla FC 2, love that game, but recently i thought maybe someone made a good mod for it. So i searched moddb and there it was. New Dunia! Looked very, very promising from the description and WOW! Man, awesome mod!! I am blown away! I never go back to vanilla.

I am really disappointed that someone steals features from your mod and don't ask you or credit you. That's a REAL no go. Some people on this world are REAL ******** and think they can allow themselves anything.
Sorry for my rant, but i wanna say thank you very much for sharing your awesome work with us!

THANK YOU Danny!!

Don't mind my not perfect english, i'm from austria.
