Commit ba34fec657e1e9f13c7e8f3acabdf7e2301ddee8 in Mumble introduced a built-in replacement for this tool, which can still be used. However, please note that:
- The project is archived and not officially supported anymore.
- It only supports the legacy plugins API, which will eventually be deprecated.
- Both the plugin and the tool should be built with the same compiler, in order to avoid crashes related to ABI incompatibility.

Mumble Positional Audio Helper is a small tool for testing the functionality of positional audio plugins outside of Mumble.
To test your plugin place it next to MumblePAHelper's executable and launch it.
System directory: C:\Program Files\Mumble\Plugins or C:\Program Files (x86)\Mumble\Plugins
User directory: %AppData%\Roaming\Mumble\Plugins
System directory: /usr/lib/mumble
User directory: ~/.local/share/Mumble/Mumble/Plugins
Mumble installs the plugins in the system directory and downloads the updated ones in the user directory.
On Windows you need to set the system directory manually if you are using a development snapshot or you have installed Mumble in a custom location.
