I am having problems to get the sound to work on this game.


I don't really know what I am doing, but what I have tried was to run the sound.bat file and set it up with a few different configurations, none have worked.

I am running a laptop with Windows Vista (yup). The sound controller is listed as "Conexant High Definition Audio" in the Device Manager.

Oh, and I am using the latest version of DOSBox to run the game with.

Thanks for the help!



Oh, and if I run the sound.bat thing and use the default setup given which is:

Sound Blaster Pro I
Address 0x200
IRQ 5
DMA 1

It says the install worked, but when I type the command to run settlers in DOSBox (serfcity), my speakers make a small clicking sound and I get the message "PCM sound hardware not found."



That is about it I think. I am new to this so have patience :-)

Thanks!

Run soundbat again and alter to

A 220
IRQ 7
DMA 1

Those are the default settings in dosbox.

BTW, there is no "sound.bat" in the AB game archive, do you have the full game?

"Your sound device could not be found at the specified settings...
Failed to detect DSP device"

The command is not serfcity but settlers
There is no 'serfcity' in the AB game.

Nonono, don't get me wrong, the review was great! And besides, no one is asking or expecting your english to be perfect. I'm sorry if that sounded rude, but I didn't know how to say it since you were so persistent in wanting to know why I changed it a bit. Frankly, it would be wiser to compare your review with the version I edited, see what your mistakes were and learn something from it for the next one

I've checked, you haven't corrected it... you've just replaced words. For some reason you replaced "you'll find numerous clues and motives" into "you'll find more clues and more motives" both are gramatically correct.

If you ask me you've 'modified' it just enough to get legal ownership of the review.
AHA! the plot thickens

I'm going to have to start saving originals of the reviews so that I can then take your mistakes and shove them back into your faces

But seriously, your review was almost perfect. I was extremely happy with it as it required minimal efforts from my side
