Duke nukem 3d squish sound effect9/12/2023 This reminds me of problems with sound in DOS games with my Windows Me computer (yes, I know).įirst things first, what driver type are you using for the sound card? In Windows 98 and Me there are two types of drivers for sound: VXD based and WDM based. Just to note, my 98 computer is not connected online, so any screenshots will be photos if requested :rolleyes: I've booted the game from both DOS and just from Windows.Įrror sample: (this was actually the first time starting the game after setup. My AUTOEXEC file is empty (aside from one line for ATI). I was hoping, fingers crossed, someone might know what could be causing this and might be able to fix it? I'm happy to give any technical details as much as possible. so much time spent trying to get audio, and the Music just starts instantly jerking and almost struggling :P Now before I threw a tantrum and shoved this computer out the window, I went through all the settings again, adjusting stuff that might help it. Now came the real test, actually playing the game. sure enough, when I tested in in Setup, it sounded perfect. I knew I had to select 'General Midi' based on what the seller told me, which I was fine with as long as it worked. I tested it, and success, I got Sound! The classic bowling pin sounds from both speakers! :D :D I selected Soundblaster as the music card and just kept the default options.

I'm sure you guys have heard it all before. but.Īs my introduction post said, I just got back into Duke Nukem 3D after buying an old WIndows 98 machine :) I've spent the better part of three weeks figuring out, or sorting out, the Sound dilemma i've been experiencing. I didn't want to be "that guy" on a Duke Nukem forum.
