Audio / Re: Listener Orientation

« on: July 26, 2012, 10:30:25 pm »

There's a previous discussion about this up vector, did you read it ? It probably contains interesting stuff.

And yes, please don't mix unrelated things in a single post. I'll be glad to answer to the other topics when you put them in a separate thread, and give more details about them

Yes, I did read it. I also read another post about the same issue from almost a year ago: http://www.sfml-dev.org/old-forum/viewtopic.php?t=6057&sid=e5a5bc3374c79e6f25d9b9646fdb316d It seems apparent you have no intention of implementing this feature anytime soon. I am almost certain this would be no more than an hour of work on your part and I believe you don't see it as necessary since sfml does not do 3d rendering.

As for the other problems I was able to hack my way around them so I don't really care that much. I'm just going to keep using OpenAL directly for my audio but it seems like a shame that the only thing preventing me from using sfml audio is the lack of an up vector...

Audio / Listener Orientation

Seems ridiculous to me that SFML 2.0 does not provide access to the up vector which is the default functionality of OpenAL. SFML is a beautiful library but I completely fail to understand why Laurent is being reluctant to implement this basic functionality. Also while I'm at it there are other things I want to complain about. sf::Window::getPostion does not work on Linux and sf::Mouse::setPosition is sending an event on Linux.  I will gladly fix these things for you, Laurent.

General / Recompiling sfml to static link to sndfile

« on: July 24, 2012, 12:05:01 pm »

I got sndfile to compile. I then switched out the lib which sfml links to with my static copy. Everything compiles fine. I then try to link sfml to my project in code blocks and I get an error about undefined reference to `__chkstk_ms'

Here is my full debug output:
