No problem, I'm sure Mathias / Tim / myself can oblige. One other I've remember from looking at the code - for some reason we always positioned the listener at (0,0,0), and do a lot of work to transform world positions into a listener-relative basis. As I understand it, OpenAL can do that itself, i.e we could use a 'world' transform for most of the source positions (which would be simpler), and pass the FGViewer orientation as the OpenAL listener orientation. I *think* at that point the OpenAL and OSG local cartesian systems would be in-sync, which might help people generally understanding the code! I do recall some story, that there was a problem with giving the OpenAL listener a non-default position, but I've totally forgotten the origin of that story, whether it applied to a specific OpenAL version/ platform, or whatever. Or maybe I imagined it. Regards, James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
