Sound in Gapidraw? Hekkus? fmod?


Sound in Gapidraw? Hekkus? fmod?

Postby Paris » Jul 26, 2004 @ 7:36pm

I am using VS.NET2003 & EVC++ 4 to develop for the pocket pc. I havent started playing with sound yet but i thought of getting some feedback on it before i did.

i have searched the forum and i found that people use the Hekkus Sound System with GapiDraw. There is an explanation in how to use that system so i am pretty sure i will be able to set it up to work. However that thread was written a year ago,does it work with the latest verstion of gapidraw?

Also did anyone use with Gapidraw? I have made a simple game in the past and i used fmod for sound and i am familiar with it thats why i consider it. Any pros or cons for using Hekkus or fmod?

Any info will be apreciated

That thread should still be valid, although some of the method names have changed. I don't think you'll have any problem updating it though, just open up the latest Hekkus docs and you should be able to get sound integrated in about 10 minutes, if that.

I've only ever used Hekkus (and my own engine that I stopped developing in favor of Hekkus), so I can't comment on FMod (I glanced at it a while back, but that's about it). I think Hekkus is fantastic, so to me there's no need to look any further, unless there's something you really need that it doesn't support.

Hekkus definately works with resources as I'm using it that way in Baseball Today. Be sure you have the right hInstance passed in the load method. I'm using m_hInstance supplied by GapiDraw.
