Castle Wolfenstein Sound Problems!
 
I just downloaded Castle Wolfenstein and the sound is garbled and almost unreconizable. How can I fix this? I tried the suggestions in the help files but nothing worked. Below are my basic machine specs.

Intel i7 quad processor
4GB DDR3 Memory
Windows Vista Home Premium
X-Fi Titanium Sound card
2x Nvidia 9800
Gigabyte Mother board

This was one of my first computer games back when it released on the Mac and I'd love to play it again!

I am using dosbox. The game plays, but the sound is the problem.

how is the sound "unreconizable" then? is it shuttering? or it sounds different than how you remember it used to sound like? what are your core and cycles settings in dosbox config file?

The sound speach is unclear and you can't make out what is being said..

core=auto
cycles=10
cycleup=500
cycledown=20

wow, how did your cycles end up on 10? set it to max or auto. rather auto
and which version of dosbox you're using?

by the way, it is an old game, it doesn't have any fabulous sounds. maybe you hear it as you're supposed to and you don't even know you are. here is an example of the sounds in the game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8MwL...eature=related

version 0.72.0

set it to max and it flipped out!

What should these be?

core=auto
cycles=10
cycleup=500
cycledown=20

damn sorry i thought you were speaking about the 3d wolfenstein at first. anyways, check the youtube video i posted up there

this game was sensitive to the type of processor
i downloaded it and checked it out. in order to run it close to the speed it was meant to be run at, i set my core to normal and cycles to 230. try that
