Leisure Suit larry 6 CD SFX Fix!

Post by JohnnyPhantom »

Hey All! This was driving me mad :P but I found the solution and am now ready to share!

I installed LSL6: CD/Talkie version using the installers found here (I tried the LSL6 installer and the LSL UPP installer) but both had the same issue, they would install, I'd get voices, but no sound effects. Looking in the Resource.cfg file I spotted " resAUD = .\aud
resSFX = .\sfx" when I looked in the LSL6 folder, there was no "sfx" folder created by the installer. It looks like the sfx file was placed in the root of the LSL6 CD folder and not in the "sfx" folder.

There are 2 easy fixes for this,
1. change the line to " resAUD = .\aud
resSFX = .\"
2. create or copy the sfx folder from the CD to the LSL6 CD folder. and make sure the sfx file is inside and done!

Enjoy!!

Collector, your installer fixes the above issue?

Regardless, cool that JohnnyPhantom came here and shared a fix he found! (Always appreciate when someone shares some knowledge!)

And welcome to the forums, JohnnyPhantom! If I haven't already welcomed you elsewhere! (Getting old... memory starts to go... very quickly...)

What was this about again? :lol:

... To think that I registered to the Forums today to write almost the same thing about that problem...

... Oh, well. ^_^

Anyway, thanks to all the staff for all this amazing work with the Installers and all. Sierra games deserve to be played anytime, anywhere.

Thanks again!

:lol: Certainly seems an interest in Larry has spiked as a result of the Kickstarter... Hope people bought their copies of LSL on ebay before the Kickstarter news... because I imagine it's going to get more difficult and pricey!
