Noctropolis voices - 06/14/03 05:38 PM
Couple of question about Noctropolis. I installed this game last night and played through the opening, to the comic book, the following dream and the little girl at the door. There are voices in the intro, a growl in the dream sequence and then the little girl's voice.
Is this a game where there are only intermittent voices? All I get is text most of the time when the main character looks at stuff, etc.
Also tried to install it on my Optiplex in both DOS 6.22 and DOS 7.0 and both times was immediately knocked back to the D:\ prompt with a message that the game exited successfully. I suspect it's a hardware conflict as this happens in both partitions but on the same system. Playing with the sound configuration only succeeds in freezing the game at the first glimpse of a cursor. It runs fine on my WIN 98se laptop though it's one of those game where the sound has a hiss to it.
(BTW it runs crystal clear on an old 386 but way to sloooooow to ever play....) If only I had a 486...hmmm....
