Have you tried to disable EMS in VDMS, too? Haven't tried to play it with VDMS yet, but maybe it helps. Oh and I think I posted the wrong link above, get privateer and RF along with some other WC games for free here:Īnyway thanks everyone for taking your time to read my woes, I do appreciate it. Oh, and using a ram drive for both privateer and dosbox in xp didn't help much either! I'd really like to play this game, either by tweaking dosbox somehow or finding a dos driver for my audio card. I have a crystal semiconductor CS4205 audio chip, and have not been able to find any dos driver that will run it, and I have tried quite a few. after I quit i can copy the save to the floppy. Well I can't really repartition my driver, however I was able to create a boot disk that will let me create a 256 meg ram partition then copy the files from my cdrom and play. Tried VDMsound with no succsess, get the infamous ems driver not responding message. There is no way as it runs currently that I have any chance of winning a dogfight without HS or better missiles.īy the way switching dosbox to render with openGL increased its performance slightly and made priv look a lot nicer. And I really don't mind the slowness so much, or the choppy sound, its the laggy input that kills me. I can go over about 7000 cycles in dos box without it pegging my cpu. I've tried DosBox as well but its unplayably slow, even if I run both it and privateer from a ramdisk. Thoughts, comments, and suggestions welcomed. I'm not asking for a copy of the game, I'd still use all my resource files and stuff, I just want the. Can anyone confirm this for me? I have the full Privateer/RF on cd, but if the earlier version runs with no emm386 I really want to get a copy of the executable. The above text found in the file at this site leads me to believe that there is a version of privateer (possibly released on floppys) that does not require emm386.exe. Also I cannot get emm386.exe to load even with custom compatability settings. Unfotunately there are no dos drivers for my onboard sound card. ![]() ![]() I am desperately trying to play Privateer on my WinXP laptop. ![]() Scroll down to privateer (original ) and view the text file.
