Sounds with OpenAL | Coding a 2D Game Engine in Java #46
Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/4tHeAkxNg7
In this episode I go over the minimal requirements to set up OpenAL and start playing sounds from it. I do not go into depth about how to use different audio techniques like moving audio sources, or placing audio sources in a world, I simply go over the most basic form of setting up an audio source and being able to play it anywhere in the game world. After we have it set up, I go over how to set up an ImGui screen to get all the sound sources displayed and to play them on click.
