Try using VDMsound, that might help. By the way, there is no sound until you actually get Rincewind out of bed, just in case you assumed there was sound in the start during the little intro movie thingies. Hope this helps

yes there is sounds on the logos before the games start (gets very annoying when you just want to leap in and play)

and VDMSound works fine for me with it. discworld 2 is the most problematic discworld game to run on XP

Well there's no sound for me on the logos, but the sound is fine when it gets into the game. Not that it really matters, I guess...

You could download it with public computer? I do it, and then crab to my usb memorystick. Very handy.

I do not have thumb drive. Besides I would just like to get the sound to work on the copy that I got from here because that souds like an awful lot of work for one game. Great suggestion just too much work.

If you mean the sounds (talk) then it is impossible, because abandonia version is ripped and there is no sound files in it! So no sounds... well, no sounds.

Sorry, but only way to hear the talking is to get a version that is not ripped.

Usb memorysticks don't cost much nowadays. You can get 1gig drive for about 30euros.

:thanx: By sound I understand there are no voices on the game, but what about what about Sound FX? Like the knocking on the door that wakes you up when you first start the game.

If I remember correctly, I didn't have any sound effects in the game assuming I correctly set my soundcard settings. I didn't have any problems setting the setup in non-ripped version however. So I think it's pretty heavily ripped.

I'm having one hell of a time trying to get the sound to work for Abandonia's version of Discworld. I can play using either VDMSound or Dosbox, but there is no sound. Every time I try to modify the Discworld .BAT file, using VDMS, I get an error message that reads "cannot read drive F," whatever the crap that means. I am thoroughly perplexed at this point. Any assistance would be very much appreciated. Thx.

Just to make sure I didn't miss anything, I went back to the other responses, but to no avail. Still nothing! I then went to Abandonia's review of Discworld. In there it suggested that I "Run Config.bat and configure your sound and audio to Soundblaster Pro if you have it
Open Disk.bat using VDMS Sound, found in our Programs section, make a custom configuration in VDMS Sound and set the Soundblaster to Soundblaster Pro." I tried that to the best of my abilities, being very limited. Again, I got nothing. I'm not sure I have Soundblaster Pro for my laptop. Also, I have no idea how to correctly "make a custom configuration in VDMS Sound and set the Soundblaster to Soundblaster Pro." I'm rather lost. Every time I try to configure Discworld's sound settings to Soundblaster Pro, all I get is an error msg reading "Loading 'VDDLoader.dll'...Not ready reading drive F...Abort, Retry, Fail?" What de crap!?! Any help would be appreciated. Thx.

Sigh. If you only readed previous posts.

Abandonia version: has music but speech audio has been ripped (hence smaller size)
HOTU version: is full version, without ripping and including audio files. If you use this, remember the patch at the same page.

I personally had no problems making the hotu version work perfectly. If you are looking for speech sound in abandonia version, it won't work, because THERE IS NO GODDAMN SOUND IN IT! :wallbash:
