Recently downloaded Blackthorne and attempted to play it on DosBox.
It does play if I set it to "No sound" and set "AdLib Sound Card" for music.
Whenever I set it to "Sb Pro" though, the screen only throws a message about General MIDI and Yamaha, and then freezes.
Any clues? It is a total cockblock not to have sound effects...

SNES version has no blood!
And the 32X version has those weird rendered sprites!

So till I find a way to run it smoothly on DosBox, no Blackthorne for me.

Dosbox 0.74, default config.
SBPro for digital ànd music.
Input cycles=max before you run the game.
Works flawless here.

Maxing out the cycles (Ctrl+F12) did the job.
Thanks!!

Default Zip Corrupt

Hey,

I love abandonia, but my PC seems to think many of the zip files are corrupt when I try to unzip them. Including Blackthorne. I even tried running a Zip recovery program on it and it still didn't work.

Upload the "corrupted" archive somewhere so I can see what's the problem with it. Which browser and which unarchiver are you using?

My bet is that he is using the unarchiver bundled with Windows XP. Which is crap, BTW.

Sorry guys, it's my PC afterall. Funnily it works if I right click save target as, instead of just left clicking "get it".

Anyways, sorry to mess you about.

Default Problem with Sound

OK, I've downloaded the game and ran setup. But I have a problem with launching the game.

When I set up "digitizen sound card" (Sound blaster Pro etc.), the game does not start. If I select "no sound", the game starts but I cannot hear few important sounds gun, laughter of a beast etc.

Game also works with "music sound card" enabled, so basically I can hear everything except guns.


Any Ideas?


Thank you!

Are you running the game in DOSBox?
