Ummmm, I installed. And when i right-click I don't get the Run with VDM option. I have tried using the dosdrv command and there is no diffrence.
Additional info:
I am running windows xp.
The program is The mean gene machine.

If there isn't a shellex command, it isn't installed properly 😀

I don't know if this is possible, could the VESA support be completed?
This would providing support for a goup of old games that require the VESA (because people don't have those old video cards).

I'm new to this, but I would like to use this with conquests of the longbow, so I can hear things. Could someone tell me why I get the error message saying I have to be an administrator? I am not on a network or at school so please explain this. THANK YOU!

a) You are using Windows 9x, Windows ME - VDMSound does not support them (there is an alpha version for W9x in another thread)

b) You are not administrator! Administrator does not mean network administrator - every computer using WXP or similar systems have one or more administrator accounts (with max. access rights on everything).

Well, problem with VESA isn't something that can be done through VDMSound. The utility that fixes 2K/XP's problem with VESA access to video cards can be fixed with another utility: http://www.nomissoft.com/newsflash.html

This could probably be included with VDMSound.

i am not understand naver jisik in gum sek....

I don't understand a thing. What is it? Chinenglish? 😁

Sorry about that, but I couldn't help myself. It's just funny. No pun intended, though.

Excellent after years of giving up with Azrael Tear, no config would work with the new PC, several times trying setting up VDMsound and DOSBox, just by chance I ran the game on default mode via a .bat file, BINGO! The game is faster than ever and plays bug free except for a few audio skips once in a while is quite better now than the slide show in DosBox which I used to setup the sound. They are both needed anyways one way or another.

A Happy Customer.

Uh ok the PC specs are P4 2.8GHz running with HT disabled for the time being.
With a on board 5.1 sound by Realtek. And a FX5200 and 512MB of system RAM.

Just installed 2.1.0 on my machine hoping to run SWOS. But i don't get the run with VDSM option? Tried installing a couple of times with no joy any ideas?

Did you reboot after installing?

VDMSound install shouldn't require a reboot unless you had it installed previously...

Hi, moron. You are gonna get it if you keep posting things like that. 😠

PS - According to Snover it was some sort of spamming bot, hmpfff. 😠 😠 😠

Hi,

When I try to run a DOS version of M.A.M.E. in WinXP Pro SP2 as a .bat-file I get the following errors:

First of all, I get a pop-up that says "FATAL ERROR" & "Unhandled exception encountered while loading".

Then, after clicking on 'Ok' I get (in the command window):

1"Exciting due to SIGSEGV
2General Protection Fault at eip=00435943... etc.

The lines end with:

1Call frame traceback EIPs:
20x00435943
30x0040e35d

I do know that there are working Windows versions of M.A.M.E. out there, but believe me, I have my reasons for wanting to run this old DOS one.

FYI, I did have a previous installation that I manually uninstalled before installing 2.1.0.

I did try DOSBOX as well, but it was way too slow.
Emph

Gah! I shoulda checked here first... I actually *paid* good money for v2.0.4 in, ummm, 2001? Anyway, not that I need it anymore, but I'll dl just for good measure.

I'd be interested to know how you "*paid* good money" since VDMSound has always been free and open-source.

I have a problem with the joystick emulation of this program.

I have a 10 buttons Microsoft SideWinder digital gamepad, plugged on the joystick port of my PC (my pad is not USB).

I use VDMSound with the default settings to launch a Beats of Rage MOD, running under DOS obviously (I have Windows XP), so that the soundcard is correctly emulated and my gamepad detected. The sound is then perfect, but for my gamepad, only the directions and 2 buttons (A and B) are detected !

Then I looked in the joystick options of VDMSound and I chose joy1.map instead of the default joy2.map (joy3.map produces an error for me). This time, the game detects 2 more buttons (C and X), so 4 total, but still not the 10 buttons.

Is there a way to get all 10 buttons to work ? Why do I get an error when I try joy3.map ?

Thanks for your help !

Anyone here ? 🙁

Could anyone solve my problem, please ?

IIRC, 4 is the max. I'll doublecheck tho.

Hello,

Anyone have any working links for the VDMSound project page?

Thank you.
