Hello everyone,
First off, has anyone tested Noctropolis with DOSBox 0.70? Is it supported?
I tried installing Noctropolis tonight in 0.65. I had conflicting reports in my research here on this game; one person said it wasn't supported; another person said the reverse, that the game DOES install and run properly in 0.65 as long as you include -label noctrop when mounting your CD-ROM. I followed the latter suggestion and the game did install; however, when I get to where I choose my sound settings, no matter what I choose, I get a complete freeze/lock-up immediately thereafter. I tried the default DOSBox IRQ, DMA, and interrupt with Soundblaster, Soundblaster Pro, and Soundblaster 16, with a total freeze/lockup with all of them.
I'll be installing 0.70 shortly, but I am curious if anyone here knows what sound settings Noctropolis is looking for? Additionally, can anyone corroborate getting the game to run in 0.65 or is the installation broken in some way?
Any input appreciated. 😀
