check this sound file out, with headphones.
I think it would be.... GREAT if nexuiz could support something like this... realy... wow

it already does. Maybe your audio card only has one channel or your settings are set to mono sound...

maybe some of the "algorithms" he's talking about are not implemented but none the less, that's a good find.

it just never apeared so real... i mean, listen to this and close your eyes, it's impressive

Well Nexuiz support up to 7.1 sound if you have a matching sound card.. THATS surround sound

With headset you ionly need stereo. You only have two eardrums you know. You can achieve full sorrund with two speakers if they are place correctly.. i.e very close to you ear.


However.. human use far more complex mekanisms to position sound than just static level difference, but they are not achieve better with many channels unless you calibrate your listening room very very carefully.

click Experience 5.1-Channel Surround Sound

its used in dvdplayers

there are plugins for fubar and winamp that use this tech with ordinary mp3s

this simulate this complex mechanisms

no.. it cant.. unless it has a gyroscpe, cause these mecahnisim include mechanical stuff like tilting your head, subconciously listen for sharper (more placeable) sounds. Looking around, turning etc. that cant be simulated

hehe, the demo from dolby was cool

- I love my 6.2-Headphones

But I think the same way: the positioning in nexuiz could be a bit more precise
