Tyrian No Audio

[geogeo]

Hi all,

After many attempts, I cannot get FX audio working with Tyrian.
I get, at the closure of the setup.exe, the following message:
Sound FX Error #254 occurred after sound initialization.

Any idea of what is the root cause?

Thanks a lot for your help,

Thanks for posting a question about this game, I used to play this a lot and forgot it existed.

If you put AO486 into SoundBlaster Pro mode the FM sound works. You can do that with the sbctl.exe (https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/ao486_M ... /sbctl.exe).

Code: Select all

sbctl t4

To put it back in SoundBlaster 16 mode:

Code: Select all

sbctl t6

(This isn't permanent, restart the core and it will default back to SB16)

You probably shouldn't need to do this, but the emulation might be confusing the auto-detect sound hardware routines. It's not immediately obvious what about the emulation is giving a Sound FX Error #254.

For anyone else who hasn't played this game, it's freeware and you can download it here:
