Conkestador Posted September 1 Posted September 1 Whenever I try to run the project (even one of the examples), the project instantly closes. I've tried to run it with debug and fast debug with no luck. My drivers are up to date and I've turned off overlays from discord and steam (incase those were the problems). Any help would be appreciated. Quote

Josh Posted September 1 Posted September 1 Same error here, although no clear answer: https://github.com/kcat/openal-soft/issues/815 Probably the easiest thing to do is just update your audio drivers, unless they are REALLY up to date, like you said. That's where I would be looking first. 1 Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.

Josh Posted September 1 Posted September 1 OpenAL is just source code compiled into the engine. If you want to investigate further, you could try running a sound example and see what happens: https://www.leadwerks.com/learn/Sound_Play?lang=lua 1 Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted September 1 Posted September 1 Similar issue reported here with Minecraft: https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/support/java-edition-support/1870555-minecraft-no-sound This person fixed it by uninstalling their audio driver and downloading a new one from the manufacturer. You may also want to check your Windows sound settings, and see what the primary device is set to be. 1 Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted September 2 Posted September 2 More evidence of a sound driver problem: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24964272/eclipse-al-lib-ee-doreset-failed-to-check-format-support-0x80070057 Found the same issue here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1660910/eventcomments/3040479910537680257?snr=1_2108_9__2107 Game is free: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1660910/Tanks_The_Crusades/ Do you have problems with audio in any other applciations?

Solution Josh Posted September 2 Solution Posted September 2 I am going to close this because I am pretty sure you just need to update / install your audio driver. I am not sure what your setup is, but sometimes this is part of the graphics driver. If any new information arises, feel free to reply. Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Conkestador Posted September 2 Author Posted September 2 Sorry for the late reply, but I ended up reinstalling Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and that seemed to fix it. I never updated/reinstalled my audio drivers. Thanks for the help! 2 Quote
Josh Posted September 2 Posted September 2 Oh wow, that is interesting. Maybe we should tell the other people that are having these issues. Thanks for the info! 1 Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
