    Oooh, I've toiled over this one for ages frown.gif
    The command line switch for the original Quake was -sspeed 44000 (or something)... but it didn't work with QW, so I've got no idea how it's done or if it's even possible.
    I asked a few peeps at the time aswell, but nobody knew.

    /me wonders has anyone found a way since.

    if you want high sound quality, you just never neglect to actually MEAN your gl's and your gg's, any sound quaker can tell a sneaky or false gl LIKE LIGHTNING

    loadas8bit 1
    _snd_mixahead .14

    ...improved sound quality a bit, i wouldnt' call it high quality but it's alrite.

    Yeah, I think I get what you mean...
    Less of the playing-quake-from-under-a-wet-carpet muffled quality.
