I've searched the forum and found no answer.

I have the game Lion. Everything works well except I dont have any sound. I tried with VDM sound but then it wont get in the game(after choosing a lion/pride) due to memory I guess.

Does anyone know where can I find the sounds or the whole game (again) but with sounds?

So..it's more of a question then request..Didn't know where to put it :whistle: :D

Have you tried using DosBox? - http://www.abandonia.com/main.php?nav=programs

If that doesn't work, can you tell us more about your system? Do you use Win XP, Win 95, Dos etc? How much memory do you have?

:ok:

Oh, yes. I can play it in DosBOX. But without sound it's just not it :not_ok: :D

I'm using WinXP, SP2, 2,5 GHz, 512 RAM. I'm not sure about conventional memory and such, but I think I have 640 KB...now is that Cache or whatever, I have no clue :D

If I try to use VDM sound(or however you spell it), I have to run it in Dos prompt, right?

And when I do that, I can enter the game, set the "campaign" and all and then when I press Enter to get in the actual gameplay, all I can see is a picture for..well..a long time :(

EDIT: Actualy, very soon after the random picture before the game, it thows me out to the promt. So I guess I dont have enough of memory

You should be able to use it in normal Windows XP.

If you right-click on the game exetuble, you should get the option then to use VDM Sound.

Well....I asked if anyone knows where to get the sounds for the game or the version that has sound in it(underdogs one doesn't).
THe VDM sound question is just a plus :P
And thnx Frodo, I'll try


EDIT: Nope, No sound with VDM :(

I've heard several people say the HOTU version of Lion is simply missing the sound files. I haven't been able to verify this because I can't get it to run at all (it crashes Dosbox, and complains of not enough expanded mem when I run it through a winxp shortcut with plenty of expanded memory).

I think it would make a good addition to Abandonia if we could find a version of Lion with sound, and some instructions on getting it to run. With DOS games it seems the latter is almost as important as hosting the file itself.

I'm really glad that I've found "Wolf" on Abandonia :D
I hope that "Lion" will be added here as well (pretty please :D )

I could upload both Lion & Wolf (CloneCD versions) to a file server and
publish them in The ISO Cellar, but I need rights to browse the whole
Cellar. I know: 20 Posts isn't that hard, but so many of those ISOs are
uploaded by me and I got dozens already uploaded waiting to be
published. Do you want to see them? :whistling:

Talk to Gargantuan Orangutan about that, he mods the ISO Cellar and can arrange access for you.
