ptdc Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 A few weeks ago I got the Sam and max/ Day of the Tentacle DVD packaged bundle and I've tried to no avail to make it work with windows XP. Sam and max works without sound or music, and DOTT crashes straight after that swirly bit at the start. Can anybody help? thanks PTDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 Try using my package - LEC Quick and Easy Fix. It was posted on mixnmojo a couple of days ago. http://www.mixnmojo.com/lec_qae_1.zip You will need VDMSound to use it http://www.ece.mcgill.ca/~vromas/vdmsound/download/index.html It works fine with the white label cd versions of DOTT and Sam and Max [s+M without voice though ]. It should work with your DVD packaged version, but may need slight modification. If it doesnt work, email me. Once we get it working I can include it in the next version.

ptdc Posted February 9, 2002 Author Share Posted February 9, 2002 thanks I'll try it and get back to you PTDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptdc Posted February 9, 2002 Author Share Posted February 9, 2002 I tried it and it worked as you said. DOTT works perfectly but SNM doesn't have voices. The only change I had to make for the DVD packaged version was to change the path in the .BAT file. thanks for your help PTDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 No problem m8 No Sam and Max refuses to work with voice with VDMSound. It just hangs, not much can be done until a new version of VDMSound (finally) comes out. Im looking at the (alleged) solution of combining files from the cd and floppy versions to get it to work. This isnt gonna help many people though, since I cant distribute the floppy files:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollyRoger Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 would those two things work with windows ME too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metallus Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 No, only for NT-based OSes and XP, I'm afraid. Try using scummVM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted February 10, 2002 Share Posted February 10, 2002 When I get some time I am gonna look at creating some sort of fix thingymabob package for 95 and 98. Not sure about ME though, it's the devils own OS for dos games. Mainly because MS bloody cut real dos out of it. If I remember rightly though (i`ll have to check) it still takes notice of whats in ur autoexec.bat and moves it to the registry. So a fix is quite possible, but dont hold ur breath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 Update Sam and Max now works perfectly with version 2.0 of Lec Quick and Easy http://www.mixnmojo.com/temp/quickandeasy2.exe Provided u have NT4/2000/XP of course........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
