Has anyone managed to get the UK/European version of Realms of the Haunting working correctly with the UK to US patch? I installed this patch, which makes the game look better, and has additional options, such as higher resolutions and customisable controls, but at a price, it seems. Prior to the patch, I was getting music playing from my sound canvas. After the update though, there doesn't appear to be any music at all. Initially, whenever I tried to configure the Sound Blaster from the game's installer, I tried using Sound Blaster Pro with IRQ 5 and 7 and DMA 1 and 3, but the audio test never worked. No sound would play, I'd hear a pop, or it would just fail. In the end, I discovered that the regular Sound Blaster worked. Despite picking that though, with the patch installed, there's no music, and as soon as I interact with something, I get a load of weird noise playing. For a game made by Gremlin, it actually sounds like a load of Gremlins talking in the machine. 🤣 Exiting the game, it actually lists a load of... - sound interfaces...? Modules...? - that have tried to load and failed. I would need to take some pics the next time I'm on.

I didn't discover that I needed to use a regular Sound Blaster prior to installing the patch, so I'm not sure if the same issue triggers without it. But it's a shame if the patch introduces sound issues. So I was wondering if anyone else has encountered what I've described and if they managed to find a workaround?

Thanks
