Sound occlusion #70

Open nitrocaster opened 8 years ago

tamlin-mike commented 8 years ago

This is a hard issue. It involves physics geometry, and surface (type) insight.

I'm very much in favor of it, but it's non-obvious. You can end up with (literally) millions of audio-rays consuming CPU if unlucky.

X-Ray has a mechanism for that: sound zones. But we need an SDK to set these zones on game levels. And since this involves modifying gamedata, I'm closing this issue for now.

Maybe in future, when we will have better SDK and a better infrastructure for game assets changes...

Steam Audio makes it possible without sound zones!
