Open weluvgoatz opened 1 month ago
I remember playing 0.6.0 and this would happen randomly
This happens when either
m_device(alcOpenDevice(nullptr)),
OR
m_context(alcCreateContext(m_device, nullptr)),
fail.
Can you open SuperTux using the command line and check if you see any of those errors:
Couldn't create audio context: ...
Couldn't open audio device.
IRC/Discord Transcript (partial) for sake of this not getting lost randomly. Unrelated discussion was ommitted. this is definitely not because I was bored

weluvgoatz: can you review #3023 by copying the batch file into your portable build

THE MUSIC IS BACK
matusguy — Yesterday at 14:36
WHY
weluvgoatz — Yesterday at 14:37
i don't know how, but using the portable builds....fixed the music?
weluvgoatz — Yesterday at 14:37
ok, so it's just the installer then....hmm....
matusguy — Yesterday at 14:37
Daniel go to the installation directory and look for openal in bin/
weluvgoatz — Yesterday at 14:38
ok !Image interesting... [openal] not edited since 2016

THAT'S INDEED QUITE INTERESTING.

and it's presumably 32 bit even though this is a 64 bit build
matusguy — Yesterday at 14:39
weluvgoatz have you tried downloading other builds ever since the audio issue has happened to you?
weluvgoatz — Yesterday at 14:44
yes and all the x64 installers relwithdebinfo all had the same issue

Can you compare this to the openal dll in the portable build
Ok, by moving the dll in the portable build, the issue is fixed.
So then the question remains why it packages wrong DLLs
In the latest nightly, on Windows 10, using x64 and RelWithDebInfo, the audio in the game seems to be permanently disabled. I can't hear anything. I confirmed this wasn't an issue with my machine. So I went to the settings, and it just says this, all the time:
I also checked in my config file, and the settings there are normal (ie the sound should be playing), but just in-game all the audio seems to be turned off for me.
If anyone could help with this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
