Sound for DOS games on modern hardware?

OK, I've long since lost the orignal post, but wasn't Ethan specifically trying to run Wolf3D? My memory's pretty darn hazy on this, but I have a feeling that game may support parallel-port audio devices. Back then soundcards were expensive but a parallel-port DAC could be wired up quite cheaply; I remember rigging one up so I could play Amiga soundtracker mod files on the PC. There was also a Windows 3.0 driver floating around. A (very) few DOS games supported such devices - and talking to a parallel port hasn't exactly changed over the years (whilst bus connection methods have). The extra CPU load from driving a parallel port device isn't exactly a problem on modern hardware either :-) Just an idea if you have no ISA slots on the PC and can't rig up another machine anyway - but of course no use whatsoever if the games you want to run won't support a parallel port device! :) I can't find my copy of Wolf3D in order to check :-( I used to have it but I think it's long since vanished - shame as it was a pretty neat game from what I recall. cheers Jules ________________________________________________________________________ Want to chat instantly with your online friends?
