New OpenAL Installer 1.9.1 For Windows (Driver Update)

Creative Labs has released an update for OpenAL. OpenAL is a cross-platform 3D audio API appropriate for use with gaming applications and many other types of audio applications. The library models a collection of audio sources moving in a 3D space that are heard by a single listener somewhere in that space. OpenAL is used in renowned titles such as Quake 4, Battlefield 2, UT 2004 or Doom 3.

Updated April 3, 2006 : Version 1.9.1

The OpenAL Installer for Windows will install the OpenAL 1.1 library, enabling support for core OpenAL operations as well as extensions such as EAX and EFX. The installer supports both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows.

Version note: Installs OpenAL32.dll version 6.14.357.13 and wrap_oal.dll version 2.0.8.0.

Changes and Bugfixes:

• The installer can install both 32bit and 64bit OpenAL run-time components. 32bit components are installed on all WIndows OS's, and if the installer is run on a 64bit Windows OS, the 64bit components are also installed.
• The wrapper (wrap_oal.dll) has been updated to support the new Effects Extension (EFX) to OpenAL.
