sanitystream Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I'm not sure this is even a bug, but I just started playing KOTOR 2 and immediately noticed the in-game music isn't in stereo. The main title crawl (Star Wars "fanfare") IS in stereo, but right after that, once the game starts the music switches to mono. And it isn't even very good quality either -- it sounds like a 96K MP3 mono file. (However, the rest of the sound FX are in stereo, go figure) Also, from the main menu they let you play the individual music tracks and those are mono as well. I'm positive KOTOR 1's music was both stereo and high quality, since I was just playing it a few weeks ago. So what gives? Why would a brand new game released in 2005 have mono music? Huh?

sanitystream Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 Well here's an update to my earlier message. I used Soundforge to nose around the KOTOR music directory. While I can't seem to actually play the music files, it does say they are all 22Hz/8-bit/mono! Can you believe it? We had better quality music back in 1995! What the heck is up with this? It doesn't appear to be a setting you can change either, like picking "High" or "Low" Quality music. These are the only files installed in the folder --and they're all 8-bit mono crap!

JamieKirby Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 dudes, its a game, why complain about the music, i always turn the music off, the Starwars music puts me off or i put it very low, because some of the music can be moving. But on all games, i have the music turn off if possible or turn low if not possible.....so i ain't got a problem with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
