Yeah my interest was due to trying to get the voices with the better portraits. I concede your point about the speech being dreadful, but as you also said it has a nostalgic value to it due to that being how I first played it back in the day. Either way thanks for letting me know it hasnt been done …

Hi all, I looked around but couldnt find anything on this so thought I would ask. Does anyone know if there has been an attempt by anyone to add the better character portraits from the floppy version back into the CD version? An example is https://youtu.be/5rNGdMHzliM vs https://youtu.be/Jc9c4Mtdpic …

Thanks for the heads up. Is that likely to change at any point (opengl emulation for either the Voodoo 1 6mb (I believe that card could do (limited) 800x600), or Voodoo 2 for example?) or stay like that for the foreseeable? And please don't take that as a lack of appreciation for current …

Hi everyone, According to Mobygames, Wolfsbane supports Sound Canvas. However as the game autodetects sound on start I cant find a way to force it to ignore Soundblaster and use it. I'm using ECE Dosbox with fluidsynth support. I tried sbtype=none but the game just tried to use adlib. Any …

Looks like ill have to wait till the next svn. I reset the options all back to default, did as you suggested with typing core dynamic before running the game but still the same issue for me. C'est la Vie. Again, thanks for your assistance.

Hi ripsaw8080, thanks for taking the time to look into this. I tried changing core to dynamic as you suggested but it still didn't work for me. I then tried playing with other config options and trying with Daum but still no joy. What config setup are you using when it works properly for you?

Ok, so the spitting you were referring to was Largo spitting on the wall? I do get that one. However I am certain (in my copy at least) that the owner of the Bloody Bar & Grill makes a spitting sound when he spits into the mugs to clean them while using Adlib sound. It doesnt play when using …
