Hi Philip,
Would you consider having two ways to play sounds in BGT?
I could see the possibility of using XAudio2 on moving creatures and some
other system for everything else.

Hi Davy,
Initially when I started writing BGT, I figured that it would be best to
begin with simple stereo and then go from there. But then I found out that
DirectSound 3d is rather broken, and decided to go for XAudio2 instead.
You know the rest of that story. So for this reason, BGT will not have 3d
audio as long as it uses DirectSound and it doesn't seem viable to switch
to XAudio2 at this point considering the issues I encountered. If I do
switch to another sound system, I am not opposed to adding 3d audio as an
option if people want to use it. Personally I prefer stereo, but of course
this depends entirely on the types of games you want to make and other
personal preferences.
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall
