Hi Shaun,
I don't think it does. That's most likely why I could not get it to
work on Windows 7. My Windows laptop has an AMD 64-bit processor and a
copy of 64-bit Windows. A lot of older games and apps won't work right
on that machine. Especially, the 16-bit apps from older versions of
Hi Shaun,
Dang! You treat your software discs pretty rough.All of my game discs
etc are all in a nice box in their cases, and I always make duplicates
of my original software discs so I will use the copies rather than the
original discs. That keeps the original media in good condition.
Cheers!
Hi Darren,
I would not say that. I think my problem is just that my copy of
Windows is 64-bit not 32-bit and there is a lot of older stuff that
won't run quite right on 64-bit Windows. If I tried it on 32-bit
Windows I'd imagine I could get it working. Plus there is a program
for Mac and Linux
Good points! Thanks.

Hi Lindsay,
Silent Steel is an old submarine game written for Windows 95.
Interesting enough it was one of the few mainstream games that is
fullyaccessible to the blind either through accident or design.
Cheers!

Hi Darren,
I haven't confirmed this, but I think Silent Steel was a 16-bit
application. If so that would be the reason why it wouldn't work on my
Windows 7 laptop. I have a 64-bit version of Windows, and that is not
16-bit backwards compatible.

Hi Charles,
No. Totally different from Lone Wolf.
For one thing Silent Steel is set in the modern day, I'd say around
the early 1980's, and it is a story where a U.S. Submarine is out on a
training mission when they encounter some Soviet ships and submarines.
As the story unfolds what starts out
Hi Charles,
Definitely not. Silent Steel was released in the mid 1990's for
Windows 95. The game is almost 20 years old, and I doubt any stores
would be selling the game now being that old. If you want it I figure
you will have to get it used from Ebay or some game reseller. The only

It was good for the time, but to be honest I think in many ways Lone

As I recall Silent Steel was turn based where Lone Wolf is obviously real time.

Hi Sarah,
No problem. Glad I could help. I'm actually a bit surprised so many
people hadn't heard of the game, but then again it was around before
the Audyssey Magazine and Audyssey List got started so I suspect very
few blind gamers heard of it when it was new, and are just now hearing
about it
what is the error.
if its about the drivers, don't worry thats not important.

all avi or mpg video.
all wav data

all id files.
the setup is needed to make the game.cfg.

well it needs a sertain codec tom.
vfw something or rather.
I have the klite mega codec pack which is supposed to have it but the
cd for silent steel has that old codec so maybe if you installed it
that would make it work.
Hmm just tried it on 7 32 bit and it does work.

well that may be why it works on my 32 bit os then.
it was win 3.1 so is 16 bit.
To be honest if lonewolf got some mods for it, a couple missions
could be made for the game quite easily.
