Just to emphasise, by system folder you/we mean UT2004/System rather than anything in Windows.

Thank you DracoNihil that actually worked! Surround sound is now working in the game, brilliant. I should update my guide if I ever get time.
UT2004 - No surround sound Windows 10 (solved)
Posted on 2020-12-14, 11:14
Hi everyone, Long time no post either here or on my site, sorry for no new guides in forever. Anyway, I'd been plagued with PC issues this year and in the end decided to ditch my old rig and build a new one, based around a AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, Asus ROG Crosshair VIII main board and 32gb ram. For video …
Re: Dosbox none vs Normal 2x on a CRT

That's great thanks. I guess CGA and EGA run on a VGA card must have been doublescanned by the card for monitor compatibility then? Effectively how you remember these games depends on what kind of PC you played them on.

Sounds good, how do I do that?

Thanks, that makes sense and certainly seems to be what I'm seeing here. How about CGA and EGA games? My family did have a CGA PC years ago, but I honestly can't remember how the games should look, should they have those big thick 15khz type scanlines if played on an actual CGA PC and monitor?
Dosbox none vs Normal 2x on a CRT
Posted on 2019-12-28, 18:38
I'm fortunate enough to have a tri-sync CRT monitor attached to a PC I use for Groovy mame and Dosbox with CRT emudriver. To set up Dosbox I added the following modes to my CRT emudriver setup 720x480 @ 60.000000 360x480 @ 60.000000 720x400 @ 70.000000 360x400 @ 70.000000 720x350 @ 70.000000 360x350 …
Re: Emulating EAX on any onboard sound hardware?
Posted on 2019-10-27, 20:43
Will this Sound Blaster X-Fi MB3 software work for me if I use the HDMI audio out from my Nvidia graphics card? Quite happy to pay 30 bucks or so to get EAX/ALChemy on my main PC. Would be fun to play Alice in 4k with proper surround sound. Edit - Took a chance and yes, it works with Nvidia audio. …

Network Q Rally Championship - Controller blues
Posted on 2017-11-25, 14:31
I decided to revisit this cool little retro rally game today but instead of having a good time playing I have spent the better part of an hour trying to get the controller to work. The weird thing is I thought it worked properly last time I tried, but I guess I can't be certain. I know Microsoft …
Illegal command -exit ?
Posted on 2017-11-25, 11:35
Probably going to kick myself this has to be something obvious but, I am trying to use the -exit parameter to make DOSBox close as soon as I'm done playing my game, but instead of that I'm just getting "Illegal command -exit" on the DOSBox command line, what's wrong with my syntax? Here's the line:- …
Re: Asterix The Gallic War - Failed to get mouse
Posted on 2017-08-10, 12:52
Stumbled across the fix by chance... You need to install dgVoodoo2 then copy the "Asterixstart.exe" file from the root of the games CD into the "Exec" sub-folder within the games directory (D:\Program Files (x86)\Infogrames\Asterix\Exec on my PC). Once in there, run it and set your video card …

Posted on 2017-08-09, 18:40
Trying to coax Asterix The Gallic War (from 2000) to work on Windows 10, it is a DirectX 7 game I believe, it almost works using DGVoodoo2, but frustratingly every time I start the game I get an error "Failed to get mouse". I can click "OK" to this and start the game but mouse control is needed for …

Win98 Should pick up an IP address from any router new or old. Yeah that's what I thought... How sure are you that its a SiS 900? Don't trust windows, it'll quite happily report the card is working well in device manager, even if its completely different card and not working at all. Not at all, I …

Win 98 won't network
Posted on 2017-05-14, 14:43
So I've built a Windows 98 PC, everything seems to be working well except I just can't get the darn thing on my home network. I have the drivers for the network card (SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter according to Windows), the network card lights up and is seen by windows and all the lights flicker …
