Description

There appears to be something going a bit wrong within the logical sound manager leading to continual allocation of memory for logical sound has table nodes in Sfx_CreateLogical when playing Hexen. Most allocations seem to occur when the wind ambient sound is played or when actioned via an ACS script.

I haven't done any profiling but turning S_StartSound into a null-op resulted in a noticeable performance boost.

Being completely unfamiliar with the sound manager, I thought it best to leave it alone.

History

#1 Updated by skyjake about 15 years ago

In 1.9.7 I'm not seeing any misbehavior save for a lacking forced stopping of logical sounds from the same origin.

#2 Updated by skyjake over 12 years ago

Fixed the way the Wind sounds are played and prioritized for 1.9.8.
