I noticed that the bug from a much earlier cross-platform beta is back, namely that sounds are again not panning properly. They stay all the way over to one side, or exactly in the center, and do not pan at all like in beta 18. I realize that you may not be able to get as exact as with DirectX, but I strongly feel that there must be some level of panning. It is very hard to tell if a monster is in range or not if there is no panning to give you positional information. Karl
