Preparing the project for sound

In order to successfully compile a project that uses SFML audio, we need to make sure these additional dependency .lib files are included:

  • sfml-audio-s.lib
  • openal32.lib
  • flac.lib
  • ogg.lib
  • vorbis.lib
  • vorbisenc.lib
  • vorbisfile.lib

Additionally, the executable file must always be accompanied by the openal32.dll file, which comes with SFML and can be found inside the bin folder of the library.
