Mr X:
If you can privede me the code I'll try to add it on the new version.

mm40:
Source will not be released anymore, sorry. I have some problem to get a paypal account working properly here in italy. Not all the features are available on my country. So probably I came up with something like this: you can work with the library on freeware and commercial games too, if you earn money with your games contribute to the hekkus development and buy a licenced copy of the library. As a gift you will get the library source code that you can modify/study/abuse but not redistribute.

It's a very strange licence, I know, but I'm a strange man too...

Hi all!
Well, after some time I have decided to release a new version of my sound lib without changing the licence terms. Why? Because some have asked me to not close the source and because here in Italy isn't easy to receive internet donation. So enjoy the new version and the source code !

Changes:
* fixed some prob with modules loop (thanks Max Sitnikov for report).
* added load from memory methods to SoundFX and Module (thanks Max).
* added 'pattern loop' ProTracker mod effect.
* fixed some other minor bugs that I don't remember .

I have just tried your game Zapped! but I don't have heard this pause. Do you hear this pause with the first SoundFX on the menu or when you are playing the game?

It's quite strange, there isn't code on hekkus that preload or set something on the first sfx played so it shouldn't be any pause.

On which ppc(s) do you hear this pause?

[denthorq]

I'm using ipaq h1910 for development. Maybe is a PPC device issue? I hope it's only on my device. I also experience the sound pause on other games that uses hekkus though.

The 'pause' is when the first shape zapped another shape during gameplay. Or during the first play of the sound in the game. I'm only pertaining to wav play.

If anyone noticed this problem pls post what device are u using. Or maybe it's just my 1910

What other games have you tested that have this problem?

Now I'm writing a simple test program to verify the delay of the first sfx played. I'll post here a link when I have finished it. It may be a h1910 issue but my engine never stop to play after you have opened it so... maybe the test give us an answer.

See you later
