Error ffffbff3 processing chunk ?

***Tsunami*** · December 1st, 2000

Hi,

Love Sacrifice but after playing for about 10 mins I get this error.

Error ffffbff3 processing chunk 'Slsf' of type 'SXSK'

The errror code is always the same, the chunk and type are usually different

This error chucks me outta the game as well making playing the game annoying

Ok.. any idea?.. my machine setup is as follows..

AMD Athlon 800
ABIT KT7 Raid M/B
Prophet Ge Force 2 GTS 64mb (Herucles)
256mb of ram (pc133 cas-2)
60gb hdd (ata 100)
SB Live player 1024.
Windoze ME

As far as im aware I have updated all the drivers, also I've tried different texture resolution, still no joy

Any help would be welcomed, cheers

***IP-CSBH*** · December 1st, 2000

I think this might be a sound error. Get the latest patch for the game from http://www.sacrifice.net . If that doesn't fix it, run dxdiag, save your info to a text file and post it here. I'll take a look at it when I come in Monday.

I've re-installed the game, and could play the level from charnel....
But know I could not play another level. I got the same error...

HELP PLZ!!!!!!!!

***Tsunami*** · December 3rd, 2000

It is a SOUND problem....

Managed to cure it by (re)installing the latest drivers for my Soundblaster live player and then in Sacrifice selecting
DIRECTSOUND3D 7 +SOFTWARE -FULL HRTF
provider.

The drivers I used were the windows ME ones, filename was SBLWMEDRV.EXE size 5.19Mb. I downloaded them from creatives site. (www.sblive.com I think!)

Ever since i've done that it hasnt given me that error at all

. Still using Direct X 8.

Hope this info helps the rest of you...

Cheers

December 3rd, 2000

I have been getting similar errors at various times throughout the game as well. Sound error eh? Hmmm, I have a Live Value with Win ME OS. I've been using the EAX2 driver in the game. I guess I should try a different selection? I run a surround sound system too so I have "surround" selected as well. Sounds like an issue for the next patch

***Iceman[imported]*** · December 4th, 2000
