OpenBSD: assertion failure at FAudio_memptr about faudio HOT 7 CLOSED

This is on me; I have some Owlboy WaveBanks marked as streaming when they shouldn't be. What you can do is go to that assert and set wb->streaming = isStreaming and both asserts should go away (and the game should run just fine).

Will this be fixed in Owlboy with an update? Or will FAudio need to accomodate here? It would be a little impractical to have a separate build of FAudio just for this, it would seem...

from faudio.

I'll update Owlboy at some point, not sure when yet. I thought about setting wb->streaming after the assert but I dunno if that's safe to do with WMA yet. Once we have WMA support done for Wine I'll be able to say for sure that it's either safe to override or requires an update to the games I tweaked (I think it's just Owlboy, Apotheon and Cryptark I did this for?).

In the meantime, is it safe to run everything with wb->streaming = isStreaming? Or will other games break? In that case, I'll keep 2 versions of libFAudio around for now.

from faudio.

AFAIK it should be safe with PCM/ADPCM, so if you want to include a patch in your packages that should be okay. If you want to avoid asserts you can compile with O2+ and the SDL_ASSERT_LEVEL should bump up one level and skip any popups.

Thanks, I didn't know this was affected by -O2 compiler flag. The package for OpenBSD should/will be set up to use -O2 anyway.

The time window before OpenBSD 6.4-release is closing, but I hope to get some testing in before then.

Okay, with adding a patch to set wb->streaming = isStreaming and building with -O2, Owlboy works just fine and audio is great. 👍
