If run under XP12.04 or later, this XPMP2 version makes full use of X-Plane's Sound API and plays sound fully integrated in X-Plane's sound system without even the need to provide FMOD libraries.
The ability to link with FMOD and have XPMP2 create its own FMOD instance is fully retained. If built with FMOD libraries then XPMP2 can produce sound also under XP11. Plugins remain binary compatible with both XP11 and XP12.
