Hi,<br>
<br>
I have been using Open AL Soft to add audio support to the SDK I'm
working on. I'm trying to use the "AL_SOFT_buffer_samples" extension
so that I can load surround data into buffers. To test if the
feature is available on the computer, I check if
alIsExtensionPresent("AL_SOFT_buffer_samples") returns true or false
after setting the output device and context.<br>
<ol>
<li>If I rename "soft_oal.dll" into "openAL32.dll", then
everything is good: alIsExtensionPresent returns true</li>
<li>If I install OpenAL from Creative and install soft_oal.dll the
recommended way (I don't rename the dll, and just add it to
System32 on Windows), then alIsExtensionPresent never returns
true</li>
</ol>
<p>I would like to use the second method which is the recommended
way of installing OpenAL Soft, and benefit from the OpenAL soft
implementation as well, but it doesn't seem to be working. Am I
doing something wrong?<br>
</p>
Thanks,<br>
Cyril
