I wondered about that too. Even just rewriting the palette map in the attribute controller I would have thought would be simpler. Random guessing: Because the game is a port of an Amiga game, were the coper chip is routinely used to re-program the palette on the flight ? So it seemed the most …

It's only an 8088 cpu. I guess I'm stuck with the opl2lpt. A yeah. So you're stuck with music-only on the parallel port using OPL2LPT or future OPL3LPT and patched software/drivers. You should definitely try to find some PLUS-to -ISA adapter so you could plug in an ISA Soundblaster if you want …

But OPL3 doesn't mean SoundBlaster compatibility. This is purely FM synthesis. Fanatik should have said "soundblaster music compatibility", it would have been more correct. Sierra adventure games could use the Sound Blaser driver for music, id software's Keen Commander 4-6 uses FM also, ... It …

i have no idea what this is but it looks cool :) It's the cool OPL3 sound chip (Yamaha YMF262) that was featured on / emulated by nearly all sound cards in the DOS era, but dreamblaster has found a cool way to successfully cram it into a printer port. So now you can have the authentic old school …

Hi OPL3 synth on parallel port The first version prototype is ready and looks like this : So, for the OPL3, you're not going for socketed chips like on the OPL2 ? (SMD IC Socket Adapter ? What's the correct terminology for these ?) Do you think I would be possible to leave contact point on the PCB …
