Hi Folks... Does anybody know how to run Stunts with sound on Win ME? I have got a soundblaster live card, but somehow...
Oh by the way: No, I will NOT install an older version of Windows or DOS, it MUST work with ME. :shock:
Hi JTK! Welcome back! :D
You can run it with PC Speaker in any version of Windows, but in order to go with SoundBlaster, you need some program called VDMSound or something like that. I think we have talked about it before on this forum, in the previous thread called "Problem".
once again, VDMSound is for winXP and win2000.
Stunts should work under winme with any SB compatible card, I know the Live is a bit messed up, but sure there are some compatibility programs shipped with it.
I promised I'll never use any SoundBlaster, so I don't, and so I can't help :(
In the worst case switch back to PC speaker, I still use that method, and love the sound :)
My problem is, that I only have to install the DOS drivers of my soundcard, but DOS is hidden in Win ME, e.g. there is no option while starting the computer to simply load DOS. But KHR still has a very old 30 MB harddisk and he will put MS Dos and Stunts on it and then install it on my machine and with a boot manager I can then start MS Dos directly and run Stunts with sound. Then I will enter the contest again, although maybe... I will try the pc speaker sound... :?:
I don't think the PC speaker sound is that bad, I've been using it for more than 1 and a half year...
Welcome JTK !
i use pc speaker to :D , it sound better then when i use vdmsound
cant even hear me crash with vdmsound... :(
You guys are all right - but my pc speaker is not loud enough and I cannot hear the REAL racing sound...
JTK we still can't see your time...
Yes, you're right. At the moment I'm not at home, next week I'll try. But believe me, one year of not racing kills ones skills... I have to exercise hard and will not reach the pro league at all. But it's all for the fun of it anyway :D
CU, JTK
All I want to see is a JTK time.
So do I, with a KRH time also :wink:
...tell KHR. But I do not think he has the time...

uh oh, my name appeared :)=)
1. Well I ?m really looking forward get in my Indy again after moving to another city. I think I will take part at Zaks Contest.
2. Use SoundFX - it works better than VDM...
cu all , KHR
Getting better and better. Let's call the good old drivers back! I want to take revenge on Inavoeg!!!
Inavoeg - is he still alive? And what about Mark Nailwood, our former champion? And Death Man...?
I guess they were replaced by the Forth Generation of drivers...

I hope he's alive. If he isn't, I can't take revenge on him. He beat me in lucky circumstances in March 2000 in the Swedish Stunts Competition, which was closed in April. Inavoeg disappeared, unfortunately I knew nothing about the Kalpen Competition, and I had to abandon racing - until March 2002... :)
Nailwood: there were rumours about his return at the beginning of this month. Zak also mentioned Sylvain Chabert. Roy said sometimes he will drive again maybe. But they are not here! So Bonzai and Rotoi can win the competitions easily! Call the big ones back!
and don't forget to mi amigo CAP!! He told that he'll maybe come back too. He left racing just the month I came :(.
O.K., I'll contact Mark Nailwood and will convince him, I promise :!:
I exchanged some long emails with Mark Nailwood in January I think it was. He was reluctant to reply, but he said he remembered the Stunts days with pleasure and would check out the competitions. Only he didn't... :D CAP seems to be a better driver too. Get him back and we'll be easy prey...
The fight would just become harder than it is now :)
'Some' other drivers are finaly getting their skill back to;) (as you can see in live racing)
Anyways:Nailwood or Cap in Zak's competition would be great :)
Come back! Come back! Don'T want to be 3rd! Want to finish lower!

Try using VDMSound, an emulator for old DOS Games WITH Sound!
But on my PC (with Windows XP) it only worked fine with Stunts Version 1.0, it was too slow with 1.1.
And as my PC Speaker is too quiet, I always have to play on another, older PC with LOUD PC Speaker :lol:
