Whenever I enable voice communication for all of the half life mods, my frame rate for NS drops to 4.
I enable voice comm by going to Control Panel > Multimedia > Advanced > And changing the audio playback hardware acceleration to none. Thats the only way to get my voice comm to work. I get around 30-50 fps with other mods like CS, SC, and FA. But NS drops to 4 <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> . The only map that runs smoothly is ns_nancy and that runs at around 30 fps. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
