This is actually somewhat older news, but it was missed and it seems quite signifigant so I'm going to post it anyways.

In early April a brand new OpenAL 1.1 Installer for Windows was released along with the OpenAL 1.1 SDK for Windows which includes the new Installer. The addition of documentation and support for an Effects Extension (EFX) now allows for a generic effects interface for OpenAL.

Marten van der Honing aka Noeska (current maintainer of the Pascal translated OpenAL headers) has not translated or updated the Pascal headers in some time however. Perhaps it's time for a new update and a translation of the updated OpenAL SDK?


You can get the new OpenAL 1.1 Windows Installer and SDK at www.OpenAL.org (http://www.openal.org/)!

The translated Pascal OpenAL Headers and related tutorials are available at www.noeska.com/doal/ (http://www.noeska.com/doal/)!

I believe both Linux and MacOS X are still 1.0, but they do have 1.1 for XBox and XBox 360 thanks to Creative. :)
