Works indeed in version 0.65 of dosbox, not in 0.70 apparently. Download 0.65 from :DOSBOX-WIKI wrote: works with 0.65 (2006-03-31 18:32) dragonmaster
core must be set to normal, dynamic doesnt work sb16 works .....//
Broken with 0.70 (2007-03-25 17:51) Romero
IW.EXE (the main game) and SETUP.EXE both give "Illegal read from xxxx CS:IP 18:xxxx" errors and neither of them work. Worked great under 0.65.
CTRL+F12 to increase the CPUCycles , ALT+ENTER to get it fullscreen , and kill all that's running on the background and isn't needed.Lord Douglias wrote:Now I am trying to get it to run less choopy? The the heroine likes to run in one direction or the other and not stop when you hit the arrow key in the other direction...Any ideas?
You're doing something wrong ( yes, really , you screw something up here).Lord Douglias wrote:Also why won't Dosbox 0.65 save my "Mount C" configuration. I have to type it every time?
...Everything works. It even works with my joystick. I forgot about the editing the dosbox config file, untill you reminded me. Thanks.We already know it crash in 0.70.Solidarity_296 wrote:Okay, I know that most of you have a problem in inner worlds where it initializes sound - the problem being that it does it forever! I know because I too have had to put up with it’s anoying reign of terror – until now! You don't need to go out and buy a 98 comp just so you can run this game, nor do you need dosbox 0.65! Hopefully, this method works for you a lot better.
For starters, I did it using the latest version of dosbox - 0.72. I don’t know whether this same method works with 0.70, but since it always crashed for me, we can safely assume NO.
After installing it, open the Dosbox.conf file with something like wordpad. Your problems reside in the soundblaster settings, so find them in the list. When you do, they should be set to this for default.
sbtype=sb16
sbbase=220
irq=7
dma=1
hdma=5
mixer=true
oplmode=auto
oplrate=22050
you can leave it this way, or change each one as it suits you. Just make sure you remember what they’re set to!
The final step. Go into inner worlds setup. Go to configure sound. Set each step to exactly the same as whatever is set in dosbox.conf! For example, if you keep the above the way it is, you should set the sound up like this.
type - soundblaster 16
I/O - 0x220
IRQ - 7
DMA - channel 1
16bit DMA – 5
sound quality – 16 bit
mix rate - 22000
Save and Exit setup. The game will work! It won’t even have time to go to initializing sound, it will just start! No freezes, no f**kups!
This is the only method I have got the game working under, and I’ve tried everything! I understand it may not be perfect, but it should help some of you. Hopefully, you can now enjoy inner worlds without any problems!
Ps: I hope I'm not making an ass out of myself because somebody already found this out.
Actually, I have the same trouble as Solidarity.dosraider wrote:........
