Hi all,
A 3D sound support emulation is available through SDL_Mixer, via
pysdl_mixer and sdl_mixer4soya. It's a convenient way to replace OpenAL
for those who don't have library or windows users, who can't use pyOpenAL.
Although pysdl_mixer works fine on windows platform, i.e. it produces
clear sound, its behaviour is quite different when used with soya :
sound crackles awfully and hurts ears.
Did anyone else noticed it under windows? under linux?
I'm confused, because i can't package balazar-0.2 for windows although
i promised to Jiba a few weeks ago. When i packaged Slune-1.0.7, i had
to hack sound support to use winsound module and pyOgg/pyVorbis instead
of pyOpenAL. In consequence, Slune-1.0.7 for windows lacks 3D sound. It
could eventually be a solution for balazar, but i would consider it's a
defeat!
With this problem, and the very little free time i have, i hope
balazar-0.2 will be availabe for windows before balazar-0.3 is released!
