The audio produced is called binaural. Previously uploaded but not updated with the latest version of HRTF:
Restored support for Doppler effect
Fixed spatialization sound being too loud
Fixed stereo source is too quiet
Fixed volume curve calculation from some sources (is the inverse square law, but must be reversed)
Added missing reverb factor calculation
Implemented different spatial data transmission methods from X3DAudio to XAudio
Implemented a new transfer method that only uses the result of the last call to X3DAudio

Two channels (stereo) are enough for this module to work.
Any further surround processing will distort the effect.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
