I am unable to get A3d 2 working in American McGee's Alice. I select A3D2 in the Audio configuration menu, but if I access the console in the game, it shows I'm using the software driver. I even manually changed the config file and put A3D2, but it reverts to software after I launch the game. I'm …

It uses the CS4624 chip. I did download the reference drivers from Crystal, but haven't tried them yet because the Sensaura dlls are older than the hercules drivers dlls.

I saw a Sensaura Player demo on Youtube from ZanQuance, and so I decided to download and play it myself. I pulled my Fortissimo 3 out of storage and installed the WDM drivers on Hercules website on my Windows 98 SE machine. But the player shows EAX2 is greyed out. I did some searching on Google, and …

It is SB compatible (it has a good sounding FM synthesizer on port 388), but I have only used the card in Windows XP with Dosbox Daum.

It shows up on Ebay occasionally, usually from Great Britain. It is called Edirol VSC-MP1. I don't use it because I have a Roland SC-55 MKII.

Just installed WinDAT on a Win95 VirtualPC VM. But I have not used this app since the 90s so I don't know if it is good or not.

I got the earias.dll from the installer but I had to use the sb pci 64/128 dll. So far, the only 3d sound and reverb I have noticed is from the Imp's fireball and door opening/closing.
