Hi, guys, been reading this forum quite a bit recently. I'm a big fan of leisure suit larry, kings quest, doom, all the oldies. I remember the days of trying to get everything to load into upper memory to get stuff working, ah, the good old days.
So i though, sod it, bought a 233 p2 off ebay, bunged an awe64 soundcard in, and waited for the music to take me back.
But, it didnt. leisure suit larry series refuses to run with anything but the adlib setting, but im sure back in the day i was using mt32 with CMS soundblaster. Doom1 and Doom2 midi works fine, under general midi. Also day of the tentacle doesnt work, has sound effects, but no midi.
I have ctcmbbs installed, and the sb64basic disk. I'm not running windows, just dos 6.22. Although im gonna try windows 3.11 and run them through a dos window.
Any ideas guys ?
ive tried changing midi synth to mt32 (aweutil /em:mt32) but to no avail. If i change it to GM i get midi in DOTT, but all the instruments are wrong.
Your help is greatly apprieciated.
P.S, i've tried searching on here, but havent found much 🙁
