I can run Duke Nukem 3d in Xp professional "dos" with sound no prob. Cant run it in dosbox cos it hangs.

I can run Dune1 in dos box no probs but I cant get ne sound ;-( ITs the same story with the dos under xp

Is there any configuration that can be done so that the soundblaster works? All of the sounds setting are high including the ones that can be changed in dos box 🙁 😵

Please use different threads for different games. Do not mix them all together in a single thread.

BTW: If I recall correctly, Dune 1 should work properly under DOSBox. How did you configure it?

Try executing INSTALL.EXE first, then run the game using the batch file (DUNE.BAT)

I have just tested it. Works fine. BTW: Best Adlib music I've ever heard. Remi Herbulot did a great job programming the Adlib/SB FM interface.

Would be even better if DOSBox emulated specific AdLib Gold support, but -- ARGH, nooo, not the feathers!!

It was discussed before (search forum) - developers do not see any need for Adlib Gold (there are just a few games supporting Adlib Gold but not SoundBlaster 16 (which uses the same chip - I think OPL3)).
BTW: do not restart this discussion here ...

I know that thread, Mirek -- I was there. Ah, the lost art of teasing! Nevermind.

Hello, you'll need to create a DUNE.BAT file with the following contents:

@echo off
logo
duneprg ENG VGA EMS 386 SDB2207

The last parameter indicates Sound Blaster DMA 220 and IRQ 7. Change it as needed for your specific dosbox configuration
