It's one of those shareware games that require CT-VOICE-DRV... problem is that I can't get the sound working, no matter what. I've tried copying the file to the game folder, running BREAKIN.EXE /BLASTER PARAM 7 220, running BREAKIN.EXE /BLASTER AUTO... I still get a SOUNDBLASTER FAILED TO INSTALL: NO CARD FOUND error message.

Any ideas?

It's important to match the type of SoundBlaster to the CT-VOICE.DRV file, otherwise the driver won't initialize. Also, if you're using a driver for SB16, those only work in SVN. For 0.74, get the driver file for SBPro2 contained in the self-extracting archive here, put the driver in the game directory, set sbtype=sbpro2, and run the game with: breakin /BLASTER PARAM 7 220

I was using a CT-VOICE.DRV from a SB16, didn't know it didn't work in the official v0.74. No wonder I wasn't getting any sound. 😊

Thanks for the tip, as always.
