So this is an extended DirectX question - conncering the Creative audio extension to DirectSound, EAX. Read the EAX manual and it sounds very promising. Are there people around here working with the EAX SDK? Would be nice to hear some comments.

The EAX library is easy to use, particularly if you use EAGLE (The EAX Graphical Librarian and Editor). Though EAGLE may only be available to registered developers - I''m not sure.

There is no doubt that effective use of environmental audio will enhance a game, so I would recommend trying it out. It is easy and you''ll have it up and running in a couple of hours.

You can''t rely on everyone having an EAX compatible soundcard though so do remember to put in a fall-back option.

Cheers,
John

thanks for the reply. - And you''re right: setting it up was not so difficult as I thought it would be. And documentation also is very good. So I go ahead...
