long time since i played this, and was loookin gforward to it...

you have to run it in dosbox for the sound to work. it has adlib music.
i run the cd version in dosbox actually, with the 'cd' mounted as a folder on the harddisk!

which one?
Dune 2000 (2d)
or Emperor: battle for dune (3d)?

Yes the acted scenes are nice... the backgrounds are exactly like in the movies.
A nice thing to know: most of the 3d effects in the Dune game movies (dune 2000 and Emperor: battle for dune) and most of the C&C games were made with bryce.
thats right, not 3d studio max, plain old bryce.
the original Myst game was also made using bryce (i believe most scenes in myst were made by the same person that made the movies for westwood)

so... in your face all you who say Bryce is useless :)
(in case you don't believe me i can give you the website to prove it :) )

ehm... there
just wanted to say that :)

Hi! Not at all! MYST was a result of the professional SOFTIMAGE | 3D. The fantastic stills in the game were finaly rendered with "Mental Ray" -- not Bryce!

Could you tell me what you did to make the sound work in Dune? I just DL the game and ran it in DosBox, but there's no sound.

I would appreciate any help you, or anyone else, can give.

use D-FEND frontend for dosbox

make sure the sound setting in the d-fend entry for dune is SB16 and has "auto" for OPL mode.

this is because dune uses adlib sound, and the (emulated) sb16 in dosbox has adlib emulation (very accurate emulation in fact, with help from MAME)

on a side note; i have the cd version of dune, and the music is still adlib. the cd is used mostly for the real voice speech which is just text in the original version.

You mean that without the CD I'll be able to hear the music, but not the speach? Can't I get the speach files from somewhere?

the original version of dune didnt come with speech. the later CD version comes with speech. it takes up most of a CD's worth, so you might as well look for a copy on ebay, or possibly find an ISO of the cd to download (unlikely)
the music is the same in both versions

I love this game very much. Sadly it got no good critics. I was addicted to find any Sietch and Merchants and to turn the sadly and deadly desert planet into a wonderfull green planet of life.

I also used the endless playtime bug to turn Dune in a green desert. :D


PS: The Music was also very unique and i liked it very much.

:bye: Anyone know how to get some sound/music to the game, havent been able to get it up and running yet.
