Title: Use of sound drivers such as WinGroove
Post by: Rui 'Trovatore' Pires on Fri 22/08/2003 22:06:59
Very recently, I took to using WinGrove, a program which allows one to play midi files through the Wav driver, thus getting wave quality.

The funny thing is, in this manner I COULD play real old AGS games, such as RON - LUNCHTIME OF THE DAMNED, but anything later, like Pleughburgh or, well, ANYTHING that uses a later AGS, fails to recognize my driver. This in windows games, the driver doesn't work in DOS anyway. And this only happens in the newer AGS games - the (really) older give no problem, and all other non-ags applications seem fine.

My question: is it possible to regain what was lost so long ago, so one could enjoy of drivers such as these?

Pleughburg doesn't use midi, it uses tracked music in the form of an XM file which uses samples/instruments...

Oh. Right, it was a poor example, but my game doesn't work either, and it uses midi.

try updating that device, and upgrade to the newest DirectX :)
