Summary: Support for EAX is missing Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: PC URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_audio_exten sions OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: directx-dsound AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: virtuousfox@gmail.com
EAX is widely used in Windows(r) games, at least until Vista(tm), mostly as an option but mandatory for some, like Meatl Gear Solid 2.
This would be a great improvement if there were any way to have it with wine or page in wine's wiki with explanation why it impossible.

EAX is proprietary technology. There are no Linux drivers exists that support EAX.

--- Comment #4 from Predatory QQmber virtuousfox@gmail.com 2009-09-26 13:50:43 --- and i thought directx is proprietary technology and there is no drivers supporting it in linux so with this logic this site should not even exist.
can you please at least elaborate on how much it impossible to implement in wine so it even not worth discussing , like ever ? or provide some link to wine's mailing archive, wiki page or bug-post where is some technical explanation.
closest things i get are http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2009-June/076578.html , http://www.creative.com/corporate/pressroom/releases/welcome.asp?pid=12683 and this [http://connect.creativelabs.com/alchemy/Lists/Games/AllItems.aspx] interesting list of applications, where some indeed have similar comments in appdb.
anyway, i will reopen this if no-one will come up with better explanation for cause of #9124 in some time.
