As all the other music and sound is working properly, it appears this could have been a bug in the original game. No sound effect will play when the Magic-user is chosen on the character select screen. However, if you do not use the mouse and instead use the enter/return key to skip the initial introductory text boxes, then the Sierra logo and intro music will appear first and play properly, then it will take you to the other selection boxes as normal.Ĥ. When the game starts, if you click a mouse button to progress past the introductory text boxes, the Sierra logo and music will be skipped and it will jump straight to the screen with the buttons for 'Introduction', 'Character Selection' etc.ģ. Waltervn's 'SCI sound' build supports Quest for Glory, and the sound and music are working properly with it.Ģ.
#MAC EMULATOR TURN OFF SOUND VMAC CODE#
(Normally, the timer is paused for the extra cycles.)Ĭompiled binaries for Mini vMac V.37 are not provided as of yet, however, the source code is available for individual users to build and try.I have conducted some tests, and the results are:ġ. (A program to test hardware *should* notice that something is strange when run at greater than 1x speed.) The specific change made is that timer 2 now continues to run during extra cycles only for the duration of a short timer interval, rather than continuing to run in this case until the end of the extra cycles. Which seems a good trade off, unless further issues are found. However it also no longer passes the Clock/Interrupt Test of MacCheck. This change fixes a reported issue with HyperCard, as well as playing alert sounds in the Sound control panel, and the “Try Scale With Sound” command of ResEdit.

There is no correct behavior in this case, it is just a matter of picking what has the best compatibility with the greatest number of programs.

* The emulation of VIA timer 2, used for playing sound, has been modified when running at greater than 1x speed. If a Branch option prior to 37 is chosen for compatibility with an earlier version, the default is “-npd 0”, and you can use “-npd 1” to turn on this protection. In these cases you can use a version of Mini vMac compiled with the new “ -ndp 0” option to turn off this protection. Or, you may be trying to create your own new disk image and want the emulated Macintosh to initialize it.
#MAC EMULATOR TURN OFF SOUND VMAC ISO#
This helps prevent accidentally corrupting other files, especially when using ImportFl.īut there are some other disk image formats that you might want to mount, such as Fat16 and ISO (which can be used by the emulated Macintosh with additional software). * Mini vMac will now check if a disk image that is being mounted looks like a Macintosh disk image format (HFS or MFS), and if not decline to mount it, showing an error message.
