Digitized sound effects through the PC speaker don't work. |

I don't think it is a problem with DOSBox. The installer only offers an option between keyboard + joystick, or keyboard only. |

It's free! And it works too! (2008-03-26 09:06) |

The game can be downloaded from Cinemaware's homepage.
It will run fine with a standard DOSBox configuration, but with few modifications it will be even better:
- The SoundBlaster I/O address and IRQ's must be set to 220,3,1 for sound effects to work. See the README file for more info.
[sblaster]
sbbase=220
irq=3
dma=1
When configured correctly, you should be able to hear the comet come crashing down during the intro.
- It is a real-mode game so it will run slowly in DOSBox 0.72 unless you change the CPU-settings.
[cpu]
core=dynamic
cycles=max 80%
- And finally, I think it looks really nice with the HQ3X scaler:
[sdl]
output=overlay
windowresolution=1024x768
[render]
scaler=hq3x
PS: Changing the game setup is done with the command "DESERT /I". |
