A||||4||crazney||wine's dsound works again (no need to touch dsound.dll/vxd) Z||000000||crazney||01-01-2001||05:12 PM||dhammerton@labyrinth.net.au||Hey, I was talking to the direct sound maintainter for wine (transgaming) on email and on the wine newsgroup.. anyway, we have a working dsound implemntation in WINE now..
the method we were using to fix (contrb by someone,, who was it again?).. was causing some problems:
eg:
1) laggy sound was a bit worse, had to use different mixahead values
2) if there were to many sounds playing it went a bit choppy
3) some sounds didnt play (eg some doors opening nstuff)..
anyway, Ove sent me a patch for dsound, which worked fine.. if anyone wants the patch, its attached to a message entitled "Re: dsound changes buggered some stuff up recently" on the WINE newsgroup..
OR, you could just wait a week or whatever until it finds its way onto CVS..
anyway, youll find that all you have to do is reverse the change we made to the wine config file.. we changed this {"dsound" = "builtin, native"} to this {"dsound" = "native, builtin"} - so just change it back to the first one (builtin, native).. - once you have got the patch! - or latest CVS and keep trying.
cheers
