Sorry for appearing think, but what exactly is FMOD? I've seen reference to it in the product updates on the main page. And wondered if anyone knew a little bit more about it. Cheers! :) -Mikey F |

Its the part of Blitz that controls the sound and music and is a licenced product. |

See http://www.fmod.org. |

Does this mean we can use some of the code I see in that website to control sound from blitz (IE: passing calls as to a DLL???)??? I know that is a pretty ignorant question bbut ??? -RZ |

No not really, its built into blitz, and its not the entire library that is available with blitz. You could use the fmod dll with a decls to utilize some of its functionally that isn't used by blitz I would think, but I believe that their licence fees are on the expensive side. |

Cheers gang! :) |

Actually, FMOD's licensing fees are very reasonable...depends on the type of project you are doing. If you give your project away, then FMOD is free. cb |
