Portman, the game is a rip, and has no voices. But everything else is intact.

Don't change any of the settings at all, as the download is already set to work fine. Just download, and play. And enjoy.

Right mouse button de-selects.

Only means that you aren't trying out as many games as I do ( some 3000+) .... *sigh*

For crying out loud ....
I let this one speaks for itself, happy reading, 728 posts, on Vogons only.

Fact is, the devs did not include a GUI because:
-> There are extra problems with every dosbox update.
-> A GUI adds an extra layer of specific problems, over those who are dosbox specific.

Whatever, this has been a point in discussions over and over again, you want to use a GUI, do it, I won't get into another of those idiotic topics again.

Bye bye.

What unarchiver did you use?

Also:
do a cd shannara and a dir /w and post a screenie.
Screenies are taken with CTRL+F5 , you'll find it in
\progarm files\dosbox-0.72\capture\

Till the day you run into a game that won't run using D-Fend, then you'll be completely screwed, as so many before you.

Dosraider, point me in the direction of a game that cannot be run by D-fend please. As I've yet to find one.

Read my last post, delete the shannara folder and start over from scratch.

Most games on AB will run fine out of the archive, they are pre configured to run in dosbox.

The games runs fine after disabling digital audio, and it was not necessary to redownload it. Thank you all for the help and sorry for the trouble i have caused you.

Portman, you've run setsound exe and set the sound to some digital sound or whatever, considering that the game has been ripped of the speech the game can't find it

so run your setsound.exe again and set no digital audio

also.. pick creative labs sound blaster or 100% compatible for music, whoever uploaded the game set general midi, which sets the output to windows default midi mapper, which also produces horrendous sounds

holy crap, 3 pages of this junk, someone should split it into a separate topic in troubleshooting

I'm using Windows XP SP3, and for unpacking archives Winrar 3.80 and Winzip.
And yes, i did run the setsound executable - was it a mistake from my part? All my other dos games just work fine under dosbox without any errors.

setting no digital sound is enough=P
