3d sound support in future Papy sims?

1 post by 1 person · 20 Nov 1998 - 20 Nov 1998

I was tooling around Monza in a BRM (yup, still ;) during a short race and was noting how much better a racing sim could be if it supported EAX and/or A3d. Situational awareness, limited as it is in computer sims, sure would be improved if the sound from a car gaining on me would actually be played from the relative position of the car in a 4-speaker setup. Driver ability would improve markedly as drivers could rely more upon the sound of the car as it's position changed relative to yours. Any discussion of this for N3? I would very much like to see these new technologies adopted by Papy.
