Preamble

Setting up EAGLE

Installing EAGLE

Installing EAX Runtime

This step may not be required. I recommend you skip this step first and let me know if you needed to install the runtime. --han

Setting up DirectSound/EAX emulation for EAGLE

Option 1: Creative ALchemy

  • Install ALchemy.
  • Use the GenericALchemyDerestrictor on your ALchemy install.
  • Start Creative ALchemy from the start menu.
  • Click the Add button in lower middle.
  • Enter EAGLE 2.0 as Game Title
  • Select Use Game Path and enter the EAGLE 2.0 install directory.
  • Click OK.
  • Select EAGLE 2.0 on the left side and click >> button.
  • EAGLE 2.0 should now show up in the list of ALchemy-enabled Games on the right.

Option 2: kcat's DSOAL over OpenAL Soft

So far this is untested and requires you to know how to build with cmake.

Instructions are found on it's github page. Note, that at the time of writing (early March 2022), dsoal switched over from using EFX to EAX, which OpenAL Soft just recently added, but so far has not released a new version/build containing it. So you will also have to build OpenAL Soft from source.

Setting up Cluster

You need a version of Cluster for your game supporting the eal environments.

SO YOU ARE BASICALLY FUCKED RIGHT NOW.

Exporting maps for EAGLE

Getting started with EAGLE

Follow the EAGLE 2.0 Tutorial from the downloads section, and write proper documentation about the process when you are done.

Using EAGLE environments

The *.eal files need be placed inside the YourGame\Eal folder and the UseEagle option needs to be enabled for Cluster. The support is limited to ingame and is not available inside UnrealEd. Due to the nature of savegame handling in Unreal, KHG, etc. the environments will not work when loading a savegame (DeusEx however is unaffected), but will continue to work again upon visiting the next map. Sadyling, addressing these issues is likely only possible outside of Cluster.

Files

ALchemy
EAX

Forbidden Files

DO NOT USE THE FILES. These files are listed only for their historic significance. YOU DO NOT NEED THESE FILES.

I know this is a bad idea.
