Hi guys,
firstly I want to special thanks to site owners and users.. This is a great job!

I am using DosBox 0.63 and D-Fend to run dos games at my Windows XP. Some games works well but someones make my head crazy!! For example, Cannon Fodder 1-2, this game runs well but THERE IS A SOUND PROBLEM!! There is no voice...

I searched some sites and found one answer: writing "loadfix -1" command when you are in DosBox. This solves the problem at Cannon Fodder 2, but nothing changed for Cannon Fodder1. Similar problems occurs for other games frequently. If someone gives me a solution way, I think most of D-fend users will profit from it..
Thanks a lot...

Try using VDMSound instead of D-Fend (which I'm not familiar with). It's the most popular soundcard emulator around.

Too bad i can't use it since im not using XP or any of the NT family OSs.

experiment with your soundcard emualtion config in dfend. i havnt been unable to get a games sound working yet (depending on cycles obviosly) you jut have to try evry setting untill you find the right one, sorry that isnt more help. also if the game itself has a setup you sometimes need to run and tweak that.

Yeah, exactly. D-Fend is usually foolproof.

D-fend is not only the sound card emulator, it is also a graphic card emulator. In other words, it is complete emulator and works well. The Only problem is sound.If we can overcome this problem, I advise you all to use this problem but sound problem still hangs me...

I thought D-fend is only an add-on for DOSBox... :huh:

D-fend is a frontend.
it doesn't add any functionality

it only edits dosbox.conf and manages your games in a nice list for you.

Nikson 25-10-2005 10:06 PM

If that's true, then start using VDMSound :P

4vc1 25-10-2005 11:45 PM

Yes, it is true all abıut above. D-Fend uses DosBox. And How can I use VDMSound? Nikson can you please explain how can I use VDM sound with DosBox (and D-FEND) Thanx..

Eagle of Fire 26-10-2005 02:55 AM

You can't use VDMSound with DOSBox, they are both completely separate programs. If you use VDMSound, you will only emulate sound while if you use DOSBox, you emulate everything a high 486 or a low pentium might need.

Nikson 26-10-2005 02:58 AM

Like I said, use VDMSound :)

Office_Monk 16-11-2005 12:08 PM

Well, I couldn't get it to work with VDMS (few games work in it, as I experienced)

With Dosbox & d-fend: make sure to first run install.exe (as setup) to change sound configurations.

Next in d-fend: only use soundblaster emulation (uncheck other emulations)

Happy :sniper:

Please do not resurect old threads from the death. This thread is almost one month old now, I'd bet that the "guest" which started it don't even remember he posted here...
