SHOOT THEM TROUBLES WITH VARMINT'S EITTRIS!
I want to mess around with the configurations.
- Great! Edit IVAN.CFG. It is self-documenting. You can screw around
with all kinds of stuff in there, like what music gets played, music
volume, game speed, play options, etc...
EITtris crashes! What do I do?
- It might be the graphics. EITtris uses VESA SVGA graphics, and some
cards do a terrible job of implementing the VESA standard. You might
what to try downloading a great shareware program called
UNIVBE. It has been known to fix a lot of problems. The web site for it
is:
http://www.scitechsoft.com/univbe.html
Also try talking to your video card vendor. They might have a video
BIOS upgrade available.
- It might be your sound card. EITtris uses only Sound Blaster and
Sound Blaster compatable sound cards.
- Try disabling sound in ivan.cfg
- Try setting the SBVERSIONFIX parameter in ivan.cfg
- If you are running WIN95, make sure there are no other applications
open that use the sound blaster, or try running EITtris in DOS
compatability mode.
I can't play my favorite MOD's and S3M's in EITtris!
- EITtris has only a limited ammount of memory for modules. When
you run EITtris, look in the ABOUT... section to see the largest
music file size that you can load. Booting from a "clean" DOS
boot disk is usually a good way to free up some more of the
memory space under 640Kb.
Holy Cow this is a great game! I can't possibly send you enough money!
- That's OK. $50 will do.
My favorite S3M sounds like $##$#%!
- Varmint's Audio tools (VAT) generally does very well at playing back MOD's
and S3M's faithfully, but at this point, it is possible there is
still a bug or two lurking in there. Please email me and tell me where
I can get the offending module.
- There are a few sound systems that aren't happy with VAT. In that
case, I apologize, and suggest that you run EITtris with the PC speaker.
Later versions should be better at the sound stuff.
Midi sounds terrible!
- Yep, sure does. Sorry.
The game is slow and jerky.
- If you are on a slow computer (486/33 or less), you might want to
chop the SAMPLERATE parameter in ivan.cfg down to 11000, or you
could just choose PC sounds.
I type "eddie2" and nothing happens!
- Isn't that interesting...
