Al exKeymasterI’m still using it occasionally, to rip audio tracks from CDs or DVDs. So I don’t really want to give it away, but that’s about it. I’m hardly using my Bluray player anymore, either. It’s Amazon all over my place now… 🙂

Al exKeymasterLol, no. I don’t even know someone who’d want my external DVD drive anymore. 😉

Al exKeymasterAh, OK. I thought you had just ordered it, and it’s wonderfully easy to refund stuff on Amazon. 🙂
Alright. In this case, it’s either throw it all away, or sell on ebay. I avoid ebay for small stuff, because it’s not worth the hassle IMHO, but perhaps you can make a few bucks.

Al exKeymasterThe game is 25 years old, the disks are most likely corrupted after all this time.
Or you can keep it, for nostalgia (I can’t recommend you *officially* to download it, of couurse…?)30. August 2017 at 11:14 in reply to: Eagle Eye Mysteries in London Setup Doesn't Recognize the Sound Blaster Card #4846
Al exKeymasterGreat, have fun!

Al exKeymasterMake sure to setup the sound card correctly. While the original SB Pro defaulted to IRQ 5, and the game is also setup with IRQ 5 by default, Dosbox (all versions) uses IRQ 7.

Al exKeymasterSeems to detect Soundblaster Pro just fine. Have you tried to simply launch the game, and see if you hear sound?
Al exKeymasterYou can already do something like this by deactivating the “activate on tap only” option. This will let you use up and left arrow without lifting the finger.
But I think yours is a good idea. Not sure if it can be done, but it would allow to create sort of custom combo widgets.
Al exKeymasterMust be something with your floppy images. It’s working fine for me, too. Windows 3.11 for Workgroups. ?
Al exKeymasterFixed it for you. 😉
Not a bad idea actually, also for people who like to store their apk’s and aren’t rooted. Shouldn’t be a problem with the free version at least, but let’s wait for an official reply.
Al exKeymasterThe image isn’t being displayed. Can you upload it to a service like https://picr.de/?
FYI, pirated software isn’t supported. If you downloaded the game, it’s highly likely that the bug comes from a bad CD rip, or some changes to the game files made by however uploaded the game.
Al exKeymasterHi,
what command do you type, and what exact error message do you receive?
ScummVM only needs the game libraries, whereas Dosbox emulates a full x86 PC, and needs the game executable, too, so mayve you need to check if your files are complete.
Al exKeymasterYes, I was wondering about that exactly, because it’s working fine for me. I was asking because I’d like to know if it also crashes when using other methods to input Esc.
Al exKeymaster
Al exKeymasterThat’s strange, it’s working fine for me. Sure you didn’t change anything in the game settings, or in your Dosbox profile? What if you use the built-in Magic Dosbox keyboard, or place an Esc key widget on the screen?
