Is there sound?

by Carlos Morales · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 11/27/2004 (6:15 am) · 4 replies

I read a post in one of the TSE forums a while back that there is no sound support. And sure enough when I ported starter.fps to TSE there was no sound. So I was wondering if sound just does not work at all, or if just the default sounds arent working? Also is there a list anywhere that shows what features TGE has that TSE doesnt have yet?

This has been up a zillion times before. Someone (can't remember his name, sorry) is rewriting the OpenAL implementation from scratch together with (again, I might be mistaken with the names) Ben Garney.

This implementation would also apply to TGE but with not so many features.
The current implementation in TGE is more or less broken.

TSE's sound layer was temporarily disabled mostly so we could get other stuff up and running faster. If you copy TGE's sound code over, it will work just fine (if I recall correctly).

Ok thanks.

Stefan - You seriously need to chill man. Ive seen you kinda go off at people for asking "dumb" questions several times before. Most of us dont spend our days on the forums therefore dont read every single little post. But on the current topic, I am quite sure there isnt one post in the TSE forums that deals with this topic after TSE 0.2 was released. My question was more of a "is it still broken with 0.2?", wanting an official response. Please calm down.

And for the record, you need to learn how to read. I wasn't being offensive anywhere in my post.

I do go off at people asking stupid questions sometimes if they obviously haven't read the threads. If you don't have the time, why should others bother taking the time to answer? It doesn't take you more than a minute or two to search in the TSE forums for "sound" and you'll find the threads I'm talking about.

So you're correct, I do "go off" sometimes and I'm sorry you don't have time to search for 5 minutes.. but I was not offensive at you at this time. I actually answered your question, mr Flame Baiter.

Edit: Sorry for going offtopic, btw. But it was totally uncalled for.
