Hi 2 all!
First of all, say thanks for this, its a prety feel to play my old dos games as i remembered it, im 20, so most of you would be nearly my age whan you played some dos games for first time... I was 7?9? Nvm...
I have played some dos games as Doom2, Duke1,2 and 3D, Cyberdogs, Stone age and Raptor... and the work extremelly fine, great job, well, raptor was just a little harder to configure SB(i had to remember how i configuered SB on config... Well, im noob on this program, but im loving it...
So my problem starts playing Dig-it! (Pixel painters, Friendware, 1996)
I had the remember that on Win98( it was made for win 3.X and 95) in certain point it always crashed, so thats the reason i looked a way to play old games, to finish this game now..
My problem is using DosBox 0.73(i never tried old versions, im noob so i prefer dont go back in the history), the sound of the games (not the music), its strange in game...
Let's put an example to show you the problem.
Imagine that in a game, you got all FX sounds recorded in a only one file, and to make a sound work, you tell the program that the sound 1, is between the sec 0.002 and 0.034, thats the sound of a shoot, and imagine the sound 2, of a hit of a shoot on a wall, its between the sec 0.034 and 0.058... So if there were some offset problem, it would sound part of every sound... i donkt know if i'm explaining correctly, so here is the real problem:
The problem in game is that when i shoot, i listen the half end of the shoot sound and the half start of the shoot impact to a wall, and when the projectile impacts on a wall, i hear the half end of the sound impat on a wall and the half start of the sound impact on an enemy 😖
I tryed some diferent SB configurations, but most of all failed and maked no sound... it was compatible with SB16,(i have the old pc here right now and im seeing the sound card) i had a SB CT4180 (it was a vibra 16 o something like that) and it worked, i dont know why it doesnt wokrs properly on dosbox.
PD: Im congrats to make it work with vista, actually im using a laptop and im not able to change the OS, so its very usefull that compatiblity.
Im using a eMachines D620, MS vista, AMD Athlon Processor2650e, 1.7GB(thats 2 not?) RAM, ATI Radeon X1250 ( I think this are the correct specificatioons).
Thanks to all for your time and attention.
PD: Im spanish, im sorry if my english its not perfect, if any part cant not be understand, tell it and i will try to explain me better.
Thanks again
Newie here. Nice to meet you all ^^
