Update:
[+] Added a new example showing how to do reverb and lowpass filtering.
[*] Fixed Unicode compatibility issues and updated the helpfile.

Download from the same location.

Wow awesome! Now I actually need to make some good software that use this as well! heh!

Btw, thanks for the credit but I did not really contribute anything worth mentioning (yet)

I hope some of the Vista people here give you some feedback as this is as far as I know the only way to properly get 3D hardware sound on Vista.

And maybe some of the Linux and Mac folks could help to make variants for those platforms too?

I think I can make a Linux version. I actually need it to make a PB example for uFMOD with OpenAL in Linux. Can't make a Mac port, because I don't have a Mac (yet). All contributions are welcome!

That's what MS and Creative guys said so far.

Updated:

Code: Select all

[*] Fixed the return type for boolean functions
    from Long to Byte.
[*] Added the alGetDouble function, which is available
    only in PB4 or later.
[*] Added a deprecated function alDopplerVelocity.
    Just for completeness :)

An OpenAL PureLibrary for Linux is available in the latest uFMOD Linux release. Versions 0.0.6 and 0.0.7 are so buggy that I must strongly recommend using at least libopenal.so.0.0.8. EAX/EFX won't work in Linux because they ain't implemented at all in the reference release. In other words, it's just a wrapper over ASLA/OSS. That's why I don't feel like making a separate OpenAL SDK for Linux ATM.

Awesome!
Anyone else who thinks that should be part of PureBasic itself? GREAT!

I do!

OpenAL looks like it's the way to go.
