Hi Shelton, Glad to hear you made it thisfar ! But ... /usr/lib should be in the standard searchpath on every Linux system. If it isn't there may be something wrong with the setup. Did you install openal and then rerun ldconfig and or reboot afterwards ? IF not, then you just have to reboot. If you did you have to check your installation (notably /etc/ld.so.conf).
Bye, Kees PS: did you already try the Bo 105 Eurocopter ? Fascinating !
