  • Creative ALchemy 1.3 for X-Fi

    Creative ALchemy Project allows you to run your favorite DirectSound3D games on Windows Vista as the developers intended - with full hardware accelerated 3D Audio and EAX support! This is done by translating DirectSound calls into OpenAL. In order for this to happen, a couple of files need to be installed into each game directory. This is handled automatically by the ALchemy installer - but can also be performed manually by advanced users.

    Requirements:
    - Windows Vista
    - SB X-Fi * series soundcard with native OpenAL 1.1 Support * Excludes SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio

    Changelog:
    Added re-sizing horizontal scroll bars to game list boxes (so you can see the whole name!
    Added new ini file variable 'GamePath' that lets you specify any path to a game folder (useful when you can't find a registry key)
    Added ability to multi-select games using the Shift key
    New Games: Baldur's Gate 2, Battlefield Vietnam, C & C Generals, Chronicles of Riddick, Dungeon Siege, Far Cry, GTA 3, GTA Vice City, Hitman 2, Knights of the Old Republic 2, MDK2, Oblivion, Serious Sam 2 and Serious Sam First Encounter
    Removed re-sizing border from ALchemy application
    Fixed dsound.dll object reference counting issue (fixes Oblivion crash bug)
    Fixed dsound.dll incorrectly applying EAX properties to duplicated buffers
    Fixed dsound.dll duplicate sound buffer problem (fixes Far Cry, MDK2, Serious Sam 2 and many others)
