OpenAL32.dll cannot be found!
« on: March 24, 2013, 04:37:22 pm »
This message box only came up when I typed this into my project:

sf::SoundBuffer buffer;
        if (!buffer.loadFromFile("some path..."))
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        sf::Sound sound;
        sound.setBuffer(buffer);

I dont really know what to do, Inve tried looking up where I could download this, but all of the sites look fake. Everything compiles fine, but this is the last thing, anyone know what to do?

thanks

Laurent

The DLL is distributed in the SFML SDK. You just have to copy it to your executable directory.

I don't know what you've downloaded, but you can find them here as well.
