Re: PCem v15 Sound Issue

@seth i guess your problem is something different from the looping problem with v15 may be its better to post that in the compatibility thread @SarahWalker here the videos with the random looping problem i used ocam to record the videos and tried these 2 file hosters https://filehorst.de/d/dDFJapHE ...

Re: MS-DOS Starter Pack

with the pack you can change soundcard and memory configuration
with 2 keys

for e.g. go from sb awe32 to gus
or go from ems to xms

(without installing new drivers or manually changing config.sys and autoexec.bat everytime)
