Troubleshooting


1- NO SOUND / BAD SOUND

A. Ensure that you have the latest version of my OrbiterSound DLL package and that it is properly installed. The package is available from my website at http://www.orbiter.dansteph.com/download.php
B. If you're getting a message about "Ordinal 11" or "Dsound", chances are that DirectX isn't installed properly on your computer. Re-install DirectX and see if that works.
C. If you have an echo, slow sound, or stuttered sound, ensure that DirectX is properly installed and that you have the latest drivers installed for your sound card.

One other thing to try if you still have problems: Go to the Control Panel, choose "System" and then "Multimedia", click "Voice", "Advanced", and "Performance", then LOWER the "hardware acceleration" slider to none or just before none. This is a well-knowm problem that occurs with many games.


2- EXTERNAL MODEL VIEW OR TEXTURE-RELATED PROBLEMS

If you're having trouble with the external view of the DeltaGlider II (either missing textures or weird video issues), try deleting the dgmkII_3.dds hi-res texture file in Orbiter's texture2 folder. Many older video cards aren't able to handle these hi-res textures.
