Hello :) I've been trying for quite a while now to get Eric the Unready's digitized sound working under DosBox to no avail. The sound card is detected, yet when digitized sound is meant to play, all I get is a sound drop and some crackles. Just like this video: https://youtu.be/c2Dt7PtV1E0?t=3m29s …

You'll never, ever get it to sound like the Apple out of the box: sound hardware was different and I believe Ultima 4 only supports PC speaker.

[*]Is there a plan in the community at some point to take the new features of the various branches, merge them into the trunk (if they are not already there) and issue a new official release? It is a pain in the ass and a lot would break the idea of portability (Direct3D for Linux or OS X, anyone …

I took some time to correct, streamline, make an open format (PDF) and complete Spikey's list. The bulk of the work's still his :). I find alphabetical lists much more convenient when combing for folders or D-Fend profiles, so here are two versions: one sorted alphabetically and the other by year, …

Set blaster is produced by DosBox automatically, no need to mess with it. Try sbpro1 as well, see how it goes, also, ct-voice.drv is looked for at a subdirectory called drv of whatever folder is passed in set sound, so, if you have, say, a folder called "creative" with a DRV folder inside that …

Also Freeware != Open Source and Open Source != Freeware. Open Source is about freedom (that may or may not also imply no charge...ask Red Hat); freeware is just a program not charged for but not forced to include the source and can legally bind you not to study it, reverse engineer it, decompile it …

In short: with that specific game you can't: ScummVM can translate PC Speaker music (I believe it uses the Tandy version) to MIDI...DosBox doesn't do that. There was a patch somewhere (I think) that allows you to do that to old Sierra games, maybe check the sierra help pages for it. Without a patch …

Did you apply _inmm.dll to DosBox.exe? All that "scary" (geez) program does is patch some calls to some MCI audio CD reading routines inside an .exe or a .dll to use its own server instead of the Windows facilities. DosBox doesn't need that program (CD audio works just fine), it's only for Windows …

I'd advise against using Word to open those files: they're plain text and they could end up being saved in Word's format. Use Notepad, or vi or something like that.

What's the cycle number? Also, I don't know which fluidsynth patch Daum uses, but if it's the one I provided (check here Fluidsynth soundfont patch) the soundfont is specified in fluid.soundfont.

As far as I recall the AWE cards used wavetable synths...hence...use general midi (though the Windows built in one will most likely disappoint). OPL3 is not a soundfont but an FM synthesis chip. Unfortunately that's typically not the case... "The AWE32 didn't use its MPU-401 port to access the …
