As I’ve mentioned before, I enjoy playing some of the games from my youth - Tyrian, Doom, Dune II and more. While doing some fiddling with my D-Fend Reloaded configuration today, I decided to look into the Gravis Ultrasound support in Tyrian 2000. A bit of poking around, and I found the required GUS drivers, stuck them in the right directory (for D-Fend Reloaded, it’s under Documents and Settings/user/D-Fend Reloaded/VirtualHD by default), and fired up the Tyrian 2000 setup and changed the configuration to use the GUS driver.
One word.
Wow.
The music for Tyrian is stunning when played via the DOSbox GUS driver. Time to see what other older games I have will support it! I’m annoyed that I didn’t know about the GUS when I was growing up.
