| News Hound  |  Linux-Gamers :. The Future Is OpenAL Looks like there could be more incentive to use an API besides Direct X, at least for audio. Microsoft will be removing DirectSound 3D Hardware support from Direct X with the launch of Windows Vista. DirectSound and DirectSound3D will still function; however, they will no longer use hardware acceleration. Here is where OpenAL, a cross-platform 3D audio API appropriate for use with gaming applications and many other types of audio applications, can step into the spotlight. It's already attracting attention among developers. A list of some applications using OpenAL can be found here. http://www.openal.org/openal_vista.html Link To Original Article | |
