LB2 Sound Bug?

Feeling like this game could be murder... literally? Well, come on in here for some extra detective work (and clues/hints/etc!) for the Laura Bow games (The Colonel's Bequest and The Dagger of Amon Ra).

LB2 Sound Bug?

Post by MacGyver »

I've tried playing LB2 using VDMS, but when i click on a door in any room in the museum, the sound of the door slamming just won't stop. I've tried using the new
DOSBox 0.74, still the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this? Please help.
Thanks.

Sounds like you have the wrong updated SB driver. Also, VDMS is a long dead project that is no longer supported. It relies on the highly flawed built in DOS emulator, NTVDM, which will cause many bugs and crashes. Do a clean reinstall with this installer.

Split the topic from the "Bug" thread, since this is a different issue.

I've tried your installer. No more bug while opening doors/drawers.
Thanks :)
