Hope, didn't work. I don't think this is one of those tweaking issues. My sound is seriously fcked in some way.
choppy sound (system shock)

For some reason, every sound setup I try for system shock gives me really choppy sound. The sound flickers on and off at a rate of about 3 times per second.
error - System Shock with VDMS
Posted on 2006-02-11, 03:45
When I try to run system shock with VDMSound 2.10, I get the error message: VDMS Launchpad - CDSHOCK The system cannot open COM2 port requested by the application. This is my first time to use VDMSound, so I tried to follow Nicht Sehr Gut's noobie guide as closely as I could (though I'll have to …

Figured out my problem. I have both v61 and v63 installed, and I was mounting C to the same directory in both of them. Didn't realize until now that you couldn't do that.

(this is in DOSBox 0.61, by the way. I should've mentioned that earlier)

Ok, this is a bit weird. In total, there appear to be 4 installers on the CD: H:\install.exe H:\origin.bat H:\doc32\inst32.exe H:\inst\initial.exe install.exe and inst32.exe don't work. When I try to launch either one in dosbox, it says "this program requires windows", but when I try to run it in …

Yep, that's the case. Does this mean my CPU usage is really approx 80%? That doesn't seem right, because Descent is running pretty slow, and it shouldn't be having problems on a 3GHz, 256mb vid computer (should it?)

I'm installing system shock in DOSBox, and when I get to the part where I choose installation directory, I choose c:\sshock (default) and it says I can't install to that directory. huh?

eeeek. Yes, general MIDI works, but I don't want to have to settle for it. Sounds fake.

If you're just at the prompt with nothing running, it will have no effect. I mean, it'll increase the cycles, but there's no CPU emulation going on, so it doesn't actually use them. Try while running a game. Different games have different optimum cycles btw, for max speed. You want to aim for about …

Thank you pusher and Qbix, for correcting DosFreak's answers to my stupid question. 😉

I try to press ctrl+F12 repeatedly, but I see no change in CPU usage. It stays under 10% regardless of how many times or how frequently I press ctrl+F12. I have a really fast computer, that might be the problem.
Re: fullscreen....

besides ctrl+F9, none of that stuff works And I didn't expect anything like that to be mentioned in the readme. It's not going to kill you to answer a question, that's what a forum is for.
fullscreen....
Posted on 2006-02-05, 05:57
Is there a way to switch between fullscreen/not while in DOSBox? Or if not, is there a way to close DOSBox in fullscreen mode without pressing ctrl-alt-del to terminate it?
