hallo

did anyone manage to run this game with digitized sound set to sb16? the only sound i hear is some freaky noise...

it works ok with sound set to sbpro but i would like to play with the highest sound quality

im using vdmsound 2.1.0, windows xp

also, the sb16 setting is working ok under dosbox but my duron650 is way too slow to run this game at good speed

any help appreciated 😉

Make sure that the game is using IRQ 7 and not 5. If it's use 5 then your using XP's SB emulation.

the DIG.INI file after setup looks like this:

;
;Miles Design Audio Interface Library V3.03 of 7-Nov-95
;

DEVICE Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16 or AWE32
DRIVER SB16.DIG
IO_ADDR 220h
IRQ 7
DMA_8_BIT -1
DMA_16_BIT -1

when i choose autodetect it puts -1 at irq

i have also tried irq 5 and also tried to change it in vdmsound

and also i tried to enter proper values at dma 8 bit (1) and dma 16 bit (5)

none of this combinations works good

i have played some other dos games using vdmsound sb16 emulation and there was no problem but this game seems to be different 😒
