Help with ROTT problems
Anyone,
*
When i go to sndsetup. I can setup my sound fine. But when i go to setup the music.
it
exits and i get this warning:
"You cannot run this graphics application in a window. The application will be
suspended until you switch it to full screen by pressing Alt-Enter. Check the
properties to
ensure they are correct."
*
I even went to props, checked the tab Screen and checked marked usage full-
screen.
What the hell do i do to make it work??Please help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Help with ROTT problems
Doesn't sound like a problem with ROTT, but a problem with Windoze. Did you hit "Alt+Enter" to run it in full screen? If that didn't work, do Start->Run, and type command and hit enter.

It'll load up a DOS box, go to your ROTT directory, make sure the window is in full screen (Alt+Enter) and then run sndsetup. That SHOULD do the trick...

I dunno, this sounds like what usually happens when ROTT crashes in Win9X (which is quite often). Remember, ROTT wasn't made to support Windows, so there's a good chance that (like me) you'll have to resort to running it in DOS mode...

there are 2 suggestions, 1. if you're running anything lower than v1.3, try upgrading it with the 1.3 patch in www.3drealms.com/downloads
there is an installing program also there, try using that if the upgrading doesn't solve the problem.

Nah moonbuzz, tried all those ages ago, didn't solve anything, so I simply use it in DOS mode only. Used to get it on my old PC as well...
