New Audio Engine and sound preloading

Hi,

I have been reading the wiki and new audio engine class information and it seems there’s no preload function for sound. This is a bit of a pain when you want to play a sound for the first time. It lags… Is there anything (beside using SimpleAudio engine) I can do to avoid this?

An on the other hand, it just supports compressed formats? From the sources it seems just to suppor mp3 and ogg? This is really odd.

Cheers.

The new AudioEngine now supports preloading in v3.8 :wink:

Oh, that’s great! With preloading, the unique support for compressed formats are not a big problem…

Cheers.
