Add support for rapture #20

Closed justtoask closed 2 years ago

justtoask commented 3 years ago

I thought that it would be nice to add support for rapture (game edition) because from what I heard it has even better sound positioning than openAL soft, so it would be nice if I could have EAX and the best positional audio, here's the compatibility list: http://blueripplesound.com/compatible-games

Rapture has nothing to do with EAX, and it's just an openal implementation/device like any other. If you think OAL-soft has a subpar positioning, you should report to them.

You could place Rapture's OpenAL driver (rapture3d_oal.dll) with the wrapper and rename it to one of the supported file name (eaxefx_driver.dll, dsoal-aldrv.dll, soft_oal.dll).

Sorry for replying so late, but I just now tried to do it with doom 3 ("s_libOpenAL" is "openal32.dll") and it doesn't have any sound and crashes after few seconds.

Seems the "game edition" supports only specific games.

justtoask commented 2 years ago

Yeah, but doom 3 is on the support list

mirh commented 2 years ago

It should work anywhere with a bit of elbow grease.

bibendovsky commented 2 years ago

I couldn't get it working.

Test results for Rapture 3D extracted libraries (mentioned in the link above). Done with clean installation of Windows 7 SP1 x64 in the VirtualBox.

P.S. ALCapsViewer and EnumerateWin32 got here.

Test 1 Files from a folder "1. Libraries to copy near game exe".

File list rapture_3d_official_router_file_list

ALCapsViewer rapture_3d_official_router_alcapsviewer

EnumerateWin32 rapture_3d_official_router_enumeratewin32

Test 2 Files from a folder "1. Libraries to copy near game exe/alternative (rather unnecessary)".

The wrapper not maintained anymore after integration into OpenAL Soft.
