why don't they use something similar to what we all hear in real life? that is,

Hi Eric,
The GMA game engine doesn't have the ability to increase the echo and pitch
as you suggested. The one step from a wall feature was designed to play a
different floor material such as a metal boarder in a room or corridor as in
Shades of Doom, or to play a collision warning sound such

Hi,
Actually, what we are talking about here is collision detection is in
finding out if two objects or entities are touching in a virtual game
world. This has nothing to do with audio, but mearly figuring out the
best way to go about collision detection internally.
However, your question isn't
Hi,
Basically, that is what I do in G3D as well. When the player
approaches anything like a trap, wall, ledge, whatever it plays a
different floor material sound to indicate that something is coming
up. So in the case of a wall I could add certain step sounds that
would echo or be muted to let
Hi Phil,
Yeah, but this really doesn't explain weather using a 3d coordinates
system or an array is better for doing collision detection though.

I'll comment and adapt your code below.
These methods should all return normal vectors anyway, so you shouldn't need to
