Title: [OQ+] Integrating Allegro sound library into Quake source
Post by: fromhell on September 24, 2009, 11:43:05 PM
Jeez i'm lost on how to do this. I'm wanting to do it in DOS Quake so I can have MIDI playback and maybe DUMB mod playback too though that would be tougher. i'm not sure how well allegro is supported across the platforms either, nor if i know the latest allegro will link using old djgpp.

My idea was to steal the midi playback stuff from Boom source into Quake source since both compile with djgpp and boom uses allegro 3.0, so... hm.

I don't know about Allegro, but did you consider SDL as it is well supported across platforms?

If SDL had compiled under DOS and had OPL3 support, then yeah.

do you have a djgpp environment? do you have the old copy of allegro that boom linked to :/
