Bug ID: 41226 Summary: Sound effects play at incorrect volume in Halo PC and Halo Custom Edition Product: Wine Version: 1.9.17 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-dsound Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: vaporeon@vaporeon.io Distribution: ---
The the PC version of Halo patched to 1.0.10 will have sound effects playing either louder or quieter than expected with some sounds not being played at all. It seems to be a problem with the games 3D positional audio. Using a native dsound.dll from Windows 7 works around the issue.
Using Wine 1.9.17 on Arch Linux.
