[OpenAL] Maximum distance at which sound can be heard

[JernejL]

For the record, solution is:

1. use a proper distance model.

alDistanceModel(AL_LINEAR_DISTANCE_CLAMPED);

2. sources need AL_MAX_DISTANCE - you can also add AL_REFERENCE_DISTANCE and AL_ROLLOFF_FACTOR for good measure to have better effects.

3. AL_ORIENTATION must be correctly set on listener!!
