well i finally got full throttle to work perfectly.
make sure you dont use throttle.exe as the sound doesn't work, well theres the loud static.....

install ft from the cd first to create a directory to save to ( i guess you could use any dir you want, i never tried it yet)
when you use ft.exe to create a shortcut with vdmsound, make sure you add i<ft dir>
example

program: J:\resource\ft.exe

arguments: id:\throttle *****dont forget the "i" before the path*

after i did that i could save my games, hope this helps....

this is from the readme95.txt that states to use the sft.bat to bypass the menu, it uses ft.exe to launch instead of throttle.exe...
