Hello, I had a hankering for some old games, so I fired up my '95 machine. I can't get any sound from Descent I or II. Same thing with my '98 desktop. I have looked everywhere & I don't find anything muted, or turned off. I still get my Windows sounds though. Can someone make some suggestions? Thanks! Johnny C! |
Reload the games and make sure it sees the sound card driver, reinstall Direct X too |

Delta, I was able to load the shareware version & Direct X and the sound now works. My next question is I'm using a keyboard controlled Joystick, Suncom F-15E Talon, which causes the scenes to jump around. The faq mentions using -joypolled at the command line prompt. I know that I have done that before, but I can't remember how to do that now. Do you know? Or will some current joystick work with this game, but without this issue? Thanks again! Johnny C! |
Hope this helps, I used to play the Janes Fighters, F15 eagle ect...with a standard flight simulator joystick and it worked just fine. B |
