Leadwerks Source 3D Sound

[martyj]

I am having trouble getting 3d sound to work.

 

Setting up a listener at the player position

Player* player = this;
Listener* playerLIstener;
this->playerListener->SetPosition(player ->GetPosition(), true);
this->playerListener->SetRotation(player ->GetRotation(), true);

 

Setting up the playing source

testSound = Sound::Load("Sound/Npc/walking.wav");
source = Source::Create();
source->SetSound(testSound);
source->SetPosition(Vec3(0.0, 2.0, 0.0));
source->SetLoopMode(true);

 

The audio file in question is Mono.

Playing of the audio:

if (window->KeyHit(Key:))
{
if (source->GetState() == Source::Playing)
{
 source->Stop();
}
else
{
 source->Play();
}
}

 

The audio is playing in both speakers, but the audio doesn't change volume as the distance grows.

 

Any ideas why the volume isn't changing relative to distance?

Sounds like the bug report i posted almost a year ago: http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/topic/12542-source-setrange-issue/#entry90447

 

Along with an issue with the SetRange(), I also found at the time that you have to position the source after it is played. If you position the source then play it, then it appears to not be positioned and will play the source at full volume.

@Macklebee you were 100% right.

 

As far as Range goes, is 1.0 one meter? I found that I couldn't hear anything if the range was about 10.0.

The SetRange() or source issue seems to be resolved since that bug was posted. What used to happen was the source could be heard when the range was set to less than 1 meter no matter the distance between the source and the listener.
