Some media forces or requires downloads of certain codecs. The problem is, every media player out there isntalls it's own codecs. It will work on a clean stock XP install. So, it should always be tried for a troubleshooting step.Īs to the codecs, I do agree that installing a bunch of codecs is not needed per say for this game. We have not tested, the community that is, the need for WMP to be associated with Windows Media Player, it is just a common fix for Oblivion when folks had issues and this game uses the same engine. That audio fix could very well be obsolete, wish I'd read this post first :s Will report if this works (could take a while, applying "audio fix" now). Well, have to change that on this gaming box then. My home policy is never to install codecs, and let one program handle it. My WMP cannot play OGG files by default, I assume installing K-Lite would solve that issue.Īre you sure that Fallout3 uses the WMP, and not MPlayer2 (default builtin win media player)? I use VLC player with builtin codecs, and have winamp. Rodney C Posts: 3520 Joined: Sat 12:54 am Import/Export option 2nd option after the speaker settings.) (And/Or use the back up in the Tweak Tool. Make sure you create a system restore point first though. Game works, WMP works, but I'll keep an out for issues later. (The first one is enable.) I selected all, yup ALL. (Though nothing has changed.) So I once again opened up the codec tweak too, navigated to Directshow Filter Manager DISABLE the following filters. I also notice I suddenly had the radio warble on my new rig.
(Mentioned scaling it back elsewhere, but now I do not have to.) In addition, I was able to restore my Audgy 2 to full hardware acceleration again.
I did a 3rd after a reboot and it still loaded quickly.) I noticed the little load "wheel" doesn't pause anymore, it continues to spin right up til the save loads. Yet again it loaded up very quickly in comparison. I loaded up the game, and to my surprise, it loaded as fast as it does on this rig. (Doubt it was the cause specifically, but hey, ya never know.) I used the 'fixed broken codecs' section in the Codec Tweak tool, and included the last option, (Midi sounds not ticked by default.) just for the hell of it. So I stared playing around with K-Lites tools. I had noticed it was starting to load really slow the last couple days, almost acting like it was frozen, but would eventually load. So, I finally had the game crash on my old rig.
