Zelda (OOT and MM) - delayed sound

[zarakon]

It probably happens in all games, but it really throws me off when playing the ocarina in the zelda games.

The length of the delay basically offsets the Bolero of Fire by a little more than 1 note if played at the right speed.

Currently using Jabo's DirectSound 1.4. My sound card is a Creative SB Live!, processor 2.4GHz P4, video GeForce 4 Ti4600. I get a good 60FPS. Sync sound to game is turned on, but even if i turn it off I get the delay (along with popping sounds)

Is there another plugin that people have luck with for Zelda? I think I've tried the others ones I have and they've all sounded bad

Are you using Project64 1.6? The latest Jabo audio plugin is Jabo's DirectSound 1.6 and its contained in the Project64 1.6 package.

strange

i have PJ64 1.6, but my only Jabo plugins for sound and input are 1.40

I tried running the installer again, but that didn't work

any place i can download the newer plugins?

any place i can download the newer plugins?

No there isn't, since Jabo's plugins are only ditributed with the Project64 package.

 

[zarakon]

ah... they kept the same filenames so the installer wasn't overwriting them, even when i chose repair..

 

[zarakon]

hmmm

So the new Jabo's pretty much fixes it. Still a slight delay, but not nearly as much.
Azimer's 0.56 WIP works too.

Not sure which one to use... Azimer's gives occasional popping noises, BUT I can actually turn off the FPS limit with it so I can have a high speed toggle button... Jabo's sync locks it at 60

Just adjust the buffer size. The lower, the less latency, but the more crackly.

this slight delay is actually mostly fixably by enabling sync game to audio in the options panel for jabo's directsound 1.6

atleast it worked for me.
