Help BAM COM Scripts and FMOD

[AnonTet]

So, I've been working on sound panning.
It's a crude solution but it works and the I have left and right sounds which add a bit more life to the table.

However, BAM allows COM extentions so we can script something to use FMOD audio functions which I'm sure, is much better my basic code.

BTW, FP uses this version of FMOD: https://github.com/jyunming-chen/fmod

Unfortunately my skills are not as advanced as I'd like so I wonder if anyone has the know-how about FMOD and COM extensions and is willing to take the challenge because I think it would be a nice improvement to FP.

I know nothing about FMOD, and I use COM to start and control PUP for SSF which allows for 3d positional audio and ball rolling in the front and rear sound channels (or side and back if using 7.1).

I can tell you that SSF for mechanical sounds with FP in 5.1 or 7.1, sounds amazing.

The ideia is not installing all of that just to have left /right sounds though. Or need a 7.1 rig

what is exactly FMOD?

 

[AnonTet]

It's a way to work with sound/music for games. I don't know how to explain so https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FMOD

and the oficial site https://www.fmod.com/ (but the verison used by FP is the one above... very old)

Hi mate @AnonTet ,

Here the help file with all stuff needed... By reading this, it appear not more harder than coding FP....
Refering to fisrt page; adding this:

Sub FSOUND_Init(44100, 32, 0)
End Sub

Give and error,

but this:

Sub FSOUND_Init()
End Sub

Don't give an error..

@JLou5641
I have no time to code at the moment. I'll have to redo the code I have to take advantage of FizX new code which I haven't even seen

But anything that takes more than 5m to look at and solve, it's impossible for me so it's on hold.

Good news though, I should "come back" earlier than I though, 1 month earlier to be more precis. Bad news is that still means only in January

Something is wrong with the file though. it opens but has no contents.
