First, let me say congratulations for developing this truely awesome program, it's great to be able to once again play classic Sierra Adventures without the hassel of timer bugs! I am having some problems, so I thought I'd drop by the ol' forum:

- Music output is very choppy, is there a patch or a tweak to the settings to fix this?

- On some games, sound effects output is coming out as a loud burst of static, is there a patch or tweak to the settings for this?
(games affected by static: Space Quest 5, Freddy Pharkas, Quest for Glory 3, Leisure Suit Larry 6)

Dude. One game at a time. ESPECIALLY for Sierra games. They tweaked and modified the way their games used audio and other system resources with every game release. So, even with DosBox, there's no "all-in-one" fix.

Do a quick search for Sierra +Larry, Pharkas, etc... and you'll see fixing each one can be an adventure in and of itself.
