Our Games > Sword of Jade

Can't get the sound to work.

(1/1)

KiltSamurai:
I just finished the 'training' mission and I was unable to hear any sounds the entire time.  Also, I played through a little of the intro where someone, I assume Dogero, was walking around in a cloak, but again there was no music.  Is it supposed to be quiet, or is something wrong?

RinkuHero:
Do you mean sound effects, or music? The game actually has no sound effects (a limitation of the Ohrrpgce engine), but it should have music. Some computers have problems with the game's music however; in those cases there is a work-around, I think it's described in the manual, but I'll get one of the game's author to give you the details.

FyreWulff:
If your computer is newer, the MSDOS engine the released version of Jade runs on cannot play the music. To hear it, you will need to install the included VDMS.

However, if you could please be patient, I will release a new version of the game that runs under Windows natively and you won't have to do any weird stuff to get sound to work.

KiltSamurai:
I installed the VDMSound, and the music works.  Thanks.
