YAGL - Yet Another Game Library (FB 0.20)

I seemed to remember having a strange problem with OpenAL in Yagl. I had a never version of the OpenAL Dll and it would not work on all machines. The older one would work on all machines, but it didn't sound as good. I don't know if that is OpenAL of Yagl, though.

Installing OpenAL (using the actual installer) and then doing a reboot seems to solve most problems.
Out of my ~70 active users only one is reporting actual problems with OpenAL itself, and about 25% having not installed it to begin with ( http://www.godsandidols.com/hardware.php ).

OpenAL uses a different DLL on different systems, copying the same DLL around is not a good idea (I learned this the hard way, with sound corruption and poor quality as a result).

Ah. Okay. Thanks for the info.
