Either that or you could make like a sliding glass door going from left to right or maybe from both sides and closing on one another, and you gotta listen to the sounds moving toward one another and if they are in the same place, directly in front of you and they clang, well you can't make it through cause they're completely closed together. But You'd have to make the left side make a different sound than the right side or you'd not be able to tell which side of the trapdoors were doing what. So basically when you press the lever or what ever you hear the two doors moving off to your left and off to your right, but as soon as you start moving, they begin to move back towards one another. Maybe that could be done. ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas Ward To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Monday, November 02, 2009 12:46 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] mota help
Hi Kelly, Hmmm...You have a point there. However, volume wouldn't be a good indicator in this case. Main reason is that volume is determined by DirectX according to the distance you are away from the object. So if a sound is loaded into a DirectX 3D sound buffer the 3d listener handles the volume of the sound, and there is no way to independently control the volume. As Willem said I'd probably have to use pitch instead. Kellie and my lovable Lady J. wrote: > But wouldn't the guess work be part of the challenge?
