SoundBlaster Patch for Sierra DOS games
V1.01 © 2001 by Kalgon
Description
This SoundBlaster patch, SBSIERRA.EXE by Kalgon - Black Bird Entertainment, fixes the SB autodetect bug with fast machines above 486
sbsierra.zip version 1.01 (ZIP File) [4,379 bytes]
Using SBSIERRA
- Make a backup of SNBLAST.DRV
- Copy SBSIERRA.EXE into your game directory
- Be sure your BLASTER environment is set (type "SET" to check)
- Run SBSIERRA.EXE
Tested Games
- Space Quest I: The Sarien Encounter SCI
- Space Quest IV: Roger Wilco and the Time Rippers (Disk Version)
- King's Quest I: Quest for the Crown - SCI
- King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder
- Jones in the Fast Lane
Troubleshooting
- Check your BLASTER environment, if it is not correctly set, SBSIERRA won't patch the game. Typical BLASTER environment for a SBAWE64, type : SET BLASTER=A220 I5 H5 P330 E620 T6
- You should have a file named SNDBLAST.DRV in your game directory. If you don't, the game you're trying to patch either works with AUDBLAST.DRV (which a newer version can be downloaded from Sierra) or works with AdLib emulation (select AdLib from the installation program).
- If you did copy your game from a CD, the SNDBLAST.DRV file may be read-only. To remove it, type : ATTRIB -R SNDBLAST.DRV
- Your sound Card HEX port address is not 0x0220 and you've got a problem because I didn't implement support for those cards... Only IRQ is fixed this version, please contact me if you really need an improved version of this patch.
