To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hello, every one, ??Just? to say hello and?I have been reading the "news letters", as the come in,.. ?Actually maybe one question, I may have asked this along time ago, and either missed the answer, or never was one... ?I have a PacMan game, that is intended for Dos, it runs well with FreeDos, also,..but it never can detect "sound blaster", and that is the only sound device it can use... ?The game, dose not run in Windows, nor is intended to, but with Dos Box it will, ?When run from Dos Box, it dose detect "sound blaster",...and the sound works.. ? When I boot with Dos, it (the pac man )?runs well, but dose not have sound,..and the same when I have booted with FreeDos....Ok apparently, in the windows partition,there is either "sound blaster" or a emulator...howver since niether of my Dos partions, "read" the windows partition(NTFS)...no "sound blaster" is detected....So,How can, or where can I get "sound blaster" (or a emulator), for Dos,...? Do I need to get? a whole new "SB",.. that is for Dos?.... MPXPLAY, is working great for music, on the FreeDos, ...so the sound capabiltys are there, but this PacMan, and it is in the readme doc, will only work with "sound blaster"... Ok well thats about it, for now.... from Garry ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Sun, 12 Sep 2010 02:07:40 +0200 From: "Christian Masloch" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDos-user, SoundBlaster ?

This is better. Now learn to program in C and Assembly language and write a JLM Sound Blaster emulation driver based on MPXPLAY's drivers. Regards, Christian--------------------------------Thanks Christian, However this may be years, down the road, as I am a slow learner, but thanks any way..., Anyway, also, in the other posts, about DosBox, well thats about all I use itfor, is the one stupid game,...it may seem stupid to evryone else, but I like it,... I agree Dos box, is real limited, and when I am useing Dos, I have booted, with Dos,...On the learn to program C,...I may be able to learn enough, to do this,.in time,...even if the game is stupid, old, etc...It would be a interesting project, justto see if I can..., I could also re-write the entire game, to run on more modern drivers, ---if I learn enough....well any thanks for the input.. ------------------------------ You can't just "read the emulator" ... not because of the NTFS, but becausethis "emulator" is part of NTVDM + NTOSKRNL + sound driver system and will not run in DOS even if you copy all the files. > Do I need to get a whole new "SB",.. that is for Dos?.... You could get an ISA SB sound card (if you have ISA slots) ... > MPXPLAY, is working great for music, on the FreeDos, ... > so the sound capabiltys are there :-) OK.... > So,How can, or where can > I get "sound blaster" (or a emulator), for Dos,...? There are just tiny 2 things to do: - create a sound driver model for FreeDOS with support of your card - get some emulator (BOCHS, QEMU) working in FreeDOS and "connecting" to aforementioned sound driver -- ~~~ wow ~~~_________________ From Garry: Ok, but I haven't a clue as to how to do that... ------------------------------visit my webb page:http://garryspages.webs.com My New page,"my gallery" http://www.GarrysPaintings.webs.com Garrison Ricketson _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
