Users and developers may use it +so they can use OpenAL Soft without having to build it from source. + +Note that it is still expected to install the OpenAL redistributable provided +by Creative Labs (at http://openal.org/), as that will provide the "router" +OpenAL32.dll that applications talk to, and may provide extra drivers for the +user's system. The DLLs provided here will simply add additional devices for +applications to select from. If you do not wish to use the redistributable, +then rename soft_oal.dll to OpenAL32.dll (note: even the 64-bit DLL should be +named OpenAL32.dll). Just be aware this will prevent other system-installed +OpenAL implementations from working. + +To use the 32-bit DLL, copy it from the bin\Win32 folder to the folder that +the 32-bit OpenAL32.dll router is installed in. +For 32-bit Windows, the Win32 DLL will typically go into the system32 folder. +For 64-bit Windows, the Win32 DLL will typically go into the SysWOW64 folder. + +To use the 64-bit DLL, copy it from the bin\Win64 folder to the folder that +the 64-bit OpenAL32.dll router is installed in. +For 64-bit Windows, this will typically be the system32 folder. + +The included openal-info32.exe and openal-info64.exe programs can be used to +tell if the OpenAL Soft DLL is being detected. It should be run from a command +shell, as the program will exit as soon as it's done printing information. + +A configuration GUI app is provided in the alsoft-config folder. It is a front- +end to editing %AppData%\alsoft.ini, which can be used to modify certain +behaviors for OpenAL Soft devices. + +Have fun! -- cgit v1.2.3
