No SFX in IK+

[tim_calladine]

No matter how many different configurations under winuae i cant get IK+ to run with sound effects, I only get the music. I know I shouldn't really complain because the music is good but I really want the sound effects that make me think I'm in a Bruce Lee movie. Can anyone help please?

BTW they sound like they we're picked straight out of Enter the Dragon.

Hi tim,

which version are you using? Would help a lot to know that

[andreas]

Hmm, I do remember something like this - on the REAL thing.
Have you tried IK+ with an A500 configuration and neither fast nor slow RAM? That is, chip=512K and nothing else.

[tim_calladine]

Version I'm using is IK+ (1998) (System 3).adf

I think I've tried that configuration straight from the winuae quickstart. OCS or ECS doesn't really matter does it?

I've got it 'n' it works fine will upload a copy to the zone for you

[tim_calladine]

Cheers, much appreciated.

After thorough testing...

I'd say it is a WinUAE bug!
For it works perfectly with WinUAE 0.8.26 and 1.1.1 beta 2, but already fails at 1.3.3.
(Used common TOSEC Invisible Crime-imported OCL crack.)

Try using your function keys, they have some effects in the game like music off etc. It tells you somewhere, maybe watch the start and a screen may appear telling you what all the keys do

You need to get WinUAE 1.5.2, you'll find it will work perfectly

Enable cycle-exact. I don't see any bugs.

Cheers for that, i'll try those tonight when I get home fromwork. I dont suppose any of you know how to get Speedball 2 to work i've never had that working either. Tried all the settings as well.

Trying it now. Hmm, it's working right now, no probs on A500 1.3 Rom, OCS, 512Kb chip + 512 Kb Slow RAM (most common) settings

Edit: What WinUAE version are you using??? if it's 1.5.2 maybe upload it again 'n' start again.

I've got speedball 2 to work now, clicked cycle-exact.
Does this function need to be on for all games?

I might be using 1.5.2 under Vista Home Premium. Cant be sure, been a while since I checked, will update my version tonight if it's not.

[andreas]

TONI IS RIGHT!
Sorry. Cycle exact is the culprit. You can determine working from non-working by simply turning this option on/off.

@tim
Use A500 Quickstart, set slider to Best Compatibility (important!).
Also works in 1.5.1.

Great

Cycle-exact I'm not sure about, but the default setting for this I believe is set to on. Maybe you have accidentally switched it off in your quest to find a setting that makes some of your games play

I wonder if there a master reset for WinUAE so everything goes back to default settings, anyone want to answer this, 'cause if not I may put it in the wish list for WinUAE

[tim_calladine]

if the default if 'off' does it need to be on for all games?

[andreas]

no, see answer in "WinUAE prb" sub-forum

[tim_calladine]

Do speedball 2 and IK+ fall into the 'older 80's games that need cycle-exact enabled to work' category?

[TCD]

Here IK+ works without cycle exact and you can hear the SFX It's the 'International Karate + (1988)(System 3)' version from Planetemu. There must be something strange going on with my PC
