Re: Tracker Program Under VDMS

Posted on 2002-07-18, 13:34

I use a dos program under XP with VDMS and it works like a charm. The only problem I encounter is when the program is not run with VDMS it has 16 megs of EMS to use for its purposes. When run with VDMS I can only get a maximum of 3.9megs of EMS. It is crucial that I am able to use the full 16 megs …

This doens't happen with other programs. You mean that you get music with other DOS programs + VDMSound, and it's only with MI that you get speaker sound? Make a monkey.bat file that contains the following line: monkey.exe r ...and "Run with VDMS" it. Does this work (Roland/MIDI music)? If no, try: …

Implement memory checker into VDMSound GUI? Mabye a check button that when pressed in the VDMSound GUI it would output a .txt file using the settings that you currently have configured? Yes, that was mant to be in the next LaunchPad anyway. :) Figure out a way to remove the MOUSE driver from NTVDM …

Side topic: One cool thing you could do, as a registered user, Vlad - is a feature comparison chart between the demo and registered version of SoundFX 2000 and VDMSound. Interested, Vlad? :) Registered user? Of what? SoundFX?! Ha! :) No, the stuff about the EMU is in the SFX2K README. Don't have …

Re: Sam and Max

I have just bougth a budget copy of Sam and Max on CD which is a DOS4GW program which runs under XP native BUT with no sound. So I tuned to VDMSound as it worked well with Day of the Tentacle for me. But when I run S&M with VDM it crashes with a access violation and a screen of nubers and text. The …

Not to tick off Vlad, but the only application I have heard that will do something like this is SoundFX 2000. It will (as far as I have read) redirect YM3812 (OPL2) - aka Adlib - commands directly to the OPL2-or-compatible-or-emulated chip on your sound card. But that's all it does it for. http:// …

Well, this is not a really good explanation or more like a "sometimes" bug. I have had a Scsi-only system for as long as I remember but never had such problems and don't have now with Vdms. Whatever if someone has this problem he could try entering the Scsi-bios on bootup with Ctrl+a (default I …

I have no idea why it would do so, but like I said in my last email, SCSI cards might reserve some conventional memory or …

Found out what it is... VESA... XP doesn't support it and the prog needs it... You don't know how many people want to run this prog but can't without partitioning and installing DOS... Just as the program starts (i.e. as soon as the window pops up), press Alt+Enter to go to full-screen. VESA is …

Uh... Well... I bought the prog and it works... But not under XP as XP doesn't run DOS programmes... Hmmm, have you actually tried to run the program under XP? Many people say that "XP won't run DOS program", which is 90% false. I.e. XP (and 2k and NT) will run most DOS programs, although without …

Tried everything you said, same result. Here's the cut and paste of the showmem. This (i.e. no mention of EXPANDED/EMS memory), unfortunately, means that your system has a problem. In the past it has been observed that systems that have "bootable" cards (such as more intelligent SCSI cards, or even …

A new version of the Disney SoundSource/InterSound MDO/SpeechThing/other parallel-port DAC emulator is available.

New slow down/speed up program

Posted on 2002-07-14, 22:32

The successor of PITSET is here! SPEEDSET allows both speeding-up and slowing-down of DOS applications. It also works with pretty much all DOS applications (as opposed to PITSET, which only worked with a limited number of games). Attached is the first version of SPEEDSET. To install, simply unzip in …
