TURN YOUR VOLUME UP & USE HEADPHONES ONLY with any virtual surround like Windows Sonic turned off. Actual gameplay starts at 1:17. Best HRTF effects at 2:23, 3:35, and 5:00.

This is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas with OpenAL Soft's HRTF through DSOAL [IRC_1037 tables]. GTA SA is a game I'm sure most of you have been waiting a long time for ever since I teased it in the OpenAL Soft resampler video back in May 2019. What better way to end this awful year with a wonderful 3D audio demonstration, huh?

GTA SA has slightly better 3D positional audio than GTA3 and Vice City. However, it suffers from three major flaws. The first is that it will persistently crash if "Radio EQ" is on, so make sure you turn that off before installing DSOAL. The second is that EAX effects are very sparingly used compared to the previous games that had wonderful hardware accelerated effects. The one time I've heard them in my current playthrough was in the garage in Robbing Uncle Sam. The third is that the Y-axis is inverted so sounds above you will sound below you and vice-versa. You can hear it clearly with the police helicopters in the final timestamp. It was bad enough that the mod of the former 3D audio server we no longer speak of made his own inverted HRTF presets particularly for GTA SA.
