I can't seem to get Last Half of Darkness VGA's Covox Speech Thing support to work in DOSBox 0.73? It says that you need to load STDRIVER.SYS in config.sys and then load SPEECHV3.EXE before running the game.
First, I tried ignoring all that and telling it to try using the Covox Speech Thing anyways (with disney=true in dosbox.conf of course), but it gave me an error message saying the driver was not available and/or the speech program was not loaded.
I tried creating a fake config.sys with device=c:\covox\stdriver.sys in it, but that didn't make a difference either.
I then downloaded some Covox Speech Thing drivers I found (which included the .sys and .exe files mentioned by the game). I tried using a utility named LOADSYS.EXE to load STDRIVER.SYS since DOSBox can't load .SYS drivers any other way as far as I know, and then I loaded SPEECHV3.EXE. The game still gives the same error message 🙁
