How do I get my fancy new Soundblaster Live card working with U7?

You can't. U7's Voodoo memory manager is incompatable with EMM386, which is required by the SB Live card's Dos drivers. The best solution to date is to have a second soundcard which is compatible with U7.

This problem appears to occur with most modern PCI soundcards. Please let me know if you find one that works. Note that the program to allow U7 and SI to run in Windows (see 11.2.1) bypasses this problem.

€¢ 11.2.4 Q: So how do I improve the sound in Ultima 7 then? A: You can use Newton Dragon's general midi upgrade patch. €¢ 11.2.5 Q: Is there _any_ other good way to run U7 on a modern computer?

A: Strangely enough, yes there is a project in the works that will allow you to do just that. Jeff Freedman's Exult project is not yet complete, but it already has all of the functions of Ultima 7 working, and has included both new features and some of the engine enhancements from SI. It is a cross-platform program with ports for Linux, and ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
