Who else have their hands on this game already?

About the sound thingy I had the same problem but figured it out. Guys you need to download the latest DX9.0c. I think the latest one was Feb 2007. Cause they have extra .dll files and some added DirectXsound file. Cant remember what its called. Start with X one. Haha anyway once I updated the latest DX9 then the sound came back on. However you need to remove the game and reinstall to make it work once you patch it.

Running it smooth and perfect on my PC. Woot nice nice.

Cheers!

Hey TYK,
Well for XP that fixed my problem. However with Vista its a concern because, I know that Supreme Commander doesnt use Direct X 10. Crysis will be the first full one DX10 game. So I would say update your direct X and then update your sound driver.

Hi, im facing sound problem as well, with totally no sound at all, i've check my directX, n the version is 9.0c, 2nd of all, i've make sure all my sound r at max volume level n none at mute. The firstime i installed, i could not run the game, which it says lack of a file called d3dx9_31.dll, i've gone through google n downloaded the file which is missing, paste it inside the bin folder, n it came out another error which is missin some x3DAudio1_1.dll, i've read through the forums n some web, which it tells me to paste those 3 files inside the bin\win2k folder into the bin folder. After i've done that, i've successfully run the game, but with NO SOUND at all X_X i've reinstall the game for 4 times already.... i really need help.... X_X

Hi Coo,

Like I said you need to update to the latest Direct X 9.0c (Feb 2007). You cant jut paste the downloaded d3dx9_31 and the x3DAudio1_1 file. Delete them. Download the latest and then install. It should work then. Update your sound drivers too. Hope that helps. Let me know.

Here is the link to the latest DirectX 9.0c (Feb 2007, includes the new files)

What are neo cables?

Both. The say get your sound drivers updated to the latest one and also get the latest Direct X 9.0c. Yea you dont need the latest to run the game however those experiencing sound problems seems to have thier problems solved after the latest Direct X installed and updated thier sound drivers. DirectX 9.0c not only contains DirectX files for video but also DirectXsound which is more important in this case.

Hope everything works for you guys

you can rotate the screen at ground level, hold SPACE and move around with the mouse.

Just download the directx9.0c, latest one, which is the feb 2007. This will fix the no sound prob, but the crashing prob, i can't manage to fix it. I haven't even started the game yet. 

But my campaign oso crash to desktop...how to fix this?

I did manage to rotate and pan the camera this way, but after I release the space button, it just return to the default top view.

Is there any way to disable the default view returning after the space button is released? Meaning I like to maintain the panned and rotated camera after I release the space button.
