Serious Sam: The Second Encounter [Fusion 2017] w/ 3D spatial sound π§ (OpenAL Soft HRTF audio)
USE HEADPHONES ONLY with any virtual surround like Windows Sonic turned off. Best HRTF effects at 7:55.
This is Serious Sam: The Second Encounter in Fusion 2017 with OpenAL Soft's HRTF [IRC_1037 tables]. Whereas the original HD remake had rather poor 3D positional audio accuracy, the Fusion 2017 version is a much-needed improvement. Strangely, it's less accurate than how Serious Sam 3 sounds in Fusion 2017.
Unlike regular Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter, the OpenAL32.dll is actually in the game's \bin directory.
