SH1 is working!

Eichhörnchen · 08-23-14, 01:43 AM

It's nice to be in the company of a bunch of guys who're happy to retro-game like this: you get odd looks elsewhere if you admit to enjoying an old classic now and then...

Hi guys. New here.

I have a sh1 question.
I have windows 7 32 bit.
Installed dosbox .74
Got sh1 full on my HD.

Problem is, I get sound from the intro movies but no sound during gameplay.
I've searched the net but I have yet to find a solution (no pun)

Any ideas?

Just a wild guess. It's been too long since I installed a game like this. Did you configure the soundcard settings (soundblaster adress, interrupt, dma) Usually you need to run some program in dos to get that done.

Like this install tutorial:

Yes, that was the tutorial I followed to understand that I needed dosbox.

I followed it a few times but I keep getting the same result.

Typing error in the ini files perhaps. I don't know what else could be the cause. I'll try to install it myself in a few weeks. I'll report how well I venture with it

Stefan-C · 11-03-14, 04:23 PM

Thank you all!

I checked the ini files a couple of times,
no errors there.

Stefan-C · 11-16-14, 07:43 AM

Well guys, I tried everything. Nothing is working.
I uninstalled the game, it's not worth playing with no sound.

I have Win 8.1 64-Bit with 16 GB RAM and a AMD R9 with 4 GB VRAM - and SilentHinter(1) is running perfectly in the "DosBox". It is still a superb subsim, better than SH4 (exept graphics, o.k. that is old DOS stuff). So for me in decending order it's SilentHunterIII, SilentHunter (1), SilentHunter2. ...

Can someone please show me in simple steps how to get SHI to run in D-Fend please?
I have it and SH1 installed but do not understand the instructions.
Thank You

Ragtimer · 09-15-21, 07:24 AM

OK,Ihave got it to the stage where it requests the CD and of course ignores the CD when I insert it into the CD Drive.The problem is the I do not have the sh.ini file/folder and no matter how I look for it on the CD or the installation on the HD,I cannot see it.Could some kind person email it to me ? Thank You

SHCE works great!
I see some old add-ons can't be run on Win 10 but I'll be able to take care of that problem. Not sure how many people out there still playing SH1 but I'm totally enjoying it!

You have to copy the 10.smk file from the CD to the C:\Silent\Bud\ folder. Then it should stop asking for the CD! There is a ShPath.ini that needs editing in the original software!
