Just gave that a go but no luck. Still get the same message "Discworld file 'english.smp' is corrupt!" Was gonna ask if some one could email me the file but 34mbs is way too big to be asking for. Arg! All I want is a bit of Monthy Python speak! Played it years ago and can't bring myself to go through it without the classic speech acting. Anyone else having this problem with the HOTU version? I've looked through the thread and didn't see anyone. Is hardly just cos of the mac, everything else works the same. |

Try: copy english.idx english.smp In dosbox whilst you're in the right directory. *Edit: There is indeed a english.smp on the original CD:

Right. Unfortunately I have the pleasure of having many similair problems except on a Mac. Long story short, after a lot of heartbreak, got the HOTU version, did all that was asked, copyed over the english.idx file, now its looking for an "english.smp" file. Looked through other forums on other sites and it says open up the .idx file and just save it as "all files" and give it the .smp prefix. Can't seem to choose "all files" on a mac (tried what I think would be the alternative and got a "file corrupted" error). And anyway, pretty sure the sound wouldn't work then if I just did that. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone else even have an english.smp file? |

Hey, I've got Discworld 1 on CD that I bought myself when it first came out. (So it's not a ripped version.) I've tried both of the suggestions that have come up to get the sound to work, because I didn't want to post and ask the same question that's been asked over and over. But I'm seriously stuck now. When using dosbox I have mounted both the CD Drive and the program file as has been suggested before, the game starts and it does work but with no sound. So then I tried using VDMSound, but it doesn't even run. It comes back with the command prompt either saying that the CD cannot be located, when I've clicked on the starter file in the C drive to"run with VDMSound. I then tried to start it straight from the CD and it came back with "MIDPAK and DIGPAK sound driver unloaded". As you can see I'm not a computer expert! When I first bought this game in 1995 it worked flawlessly, but I guess it's so outdated now, but it would be awesome to play it again with Eric Idle as Rincewind! Thank you! |

Sorry for the trouble, got it all down now. There was no sound effects, but I got it all fixed. If anyone has a similar problem - the sounds before the actual game starts and a knock on the door is the first SFX in the game. |

Hm. I'm honestly not sure if I can hear any sound effects. Music and speech works. Using the CD version + DOSBox. Anyone could pinpoint the first sound effect I should hear? |
