Okay so I finally made it in, however my next issue is under the Audio Settings I cannot check the Enable EAX button, it works in MOUL so is this a common issue on this shard or is there some work around I need to use for now? Thanks!

EAX is not supported in any open source builds due to licensing constraints. Maybe someone will have the motivation to convert it all to OpenAL EFX one day

I cant live without my EAX sounds! BTW I am impressed with what I have seen thus far, will these fixes be submitted to Cyan at some point for MOUL implementation?

Hey, Race, I don't know how they did it, but as for myself I'd say the Gehn shard has
an excellent graphics and sound quality ...

I too would love to see the environmental audio hardware support restored, as Uru does an amazing use of it. Unfortunately, as mentioned, it's another on a long list of things for a small group to do. Perhaps someday...

Btw, welcome back, Race - it's been quite a while Nice to see you again!

It would be nice to not just enable EFX but get it working on in 5.1 in Windows 7(and Vista), as even EAX in MOUla can not do that(at lest for me).

When environmental audio is re-enabled it will be as a fairly complete rewrite using OpenAL/EFX, which should give us support for XP, Vista, and 7 as well as support for Linux and OSX*. We'd also like to get it working properly with hardware implementations - right now we seem to have some issues there.

*Obviously other things need to be rewritten before we can release builds for the unices.

Sounds great! , when you make a build for Linux 64-bit let me know and I will test it.
