EAX in openAL

[McCloud]

I cant find any code examples of EAX being used by openAL. Does anyone even use it? This sucks. :angry:

Do EAX environment operations only apply to mono waves? :unsure:

You need this file included: http://ftp.berlios.de/pub/worldspace/Mingw...nclude/al/eax.h (http://ftp.berlios.de/pub/worldspace/Mingw32_Librerias/include/al/eax.h)

and you request it like this:


* alIsExtensionPresent("EAX2.0");
* palubyte FnName = "EAXSet";
* eaxSet = alGetProcAddress(FnName);
* FnName = "EAXGet";
* eaxGet = alGetProcAddress(FnName);

* //set the effect
* TAluInt Env = EAX_ENVIRONMENT_BATHROOM;
* eaxSet(DSPROPSETID_EAX20_ListenerProperties,
* * * * DSPROPERTY_EAXLISTENER_ENVIRONMENT or
* * * * DSPROPERTY_EAXLISTENER_DEFERRED,
* * * * 0, &Env, sizeof(TALuint));
* // Commit settings on source 0
* eaxSet(DSPROPSETID_EAX20_BufferProperties,
* * * * DSPROPERTY_EAXBUFFER_COMMITDEFERREDSETTINGS,
* * * * source, null, 0); //where source is the source to apply it to.. i think....
* // Commit Listener settings
* eaxSet(DSPROPSETID_EAX20_ListenerProperties,
* * * * DSPROPERTY_EAXLISTENER_COMMITDEFERREDSETTINGS, 0, null, 0);


this is translated from object pascal so please ask somebody else if there's problems with it.. i'm not really an expert into c++ :blush:

That header is from 1999! I am pretty sure EAX 4.0 exist nowadays.

Check out these links for more info:

Yes, EAX 1 -> 4 is only applied to mono sources. Stereo support is promised in version 5. Until then, just place 2 3D sources in the room, and pan them.
