Interrupt settings
Gunship 2000 version 3 added support for DMA digital speech on the Sound
Blaster and Sound Blaster Pro, and compatibles, such as the ATI F/X board
and the MediaVision Thunderboard. The use of DMA allows speech without
pausing the game. (If your interrupt setting is not correct, you will still
get speech, but the game will stop while the speech is playing) Because the
new driver was a retrofit, we had to settle for using the factory default
interrupt setting (IRQ 7). A small percentage of users have changed the
interrupt setting on their cards because of interrupt conflicts in their
computers. These drivers allow for use on interrupts 2,3,5 and 6. To use
them, first rename your old ASOUND.GS2 driver (to ASOUND2.OLD, for example)
then copy the ASNDIRQ?.GS2 file (insert correct interrupt number at the ?)
to ASOUND.GS2. These drivers will work on all versions of the game.
Pro Audio Spectrum
We also added stereo music to Gunship 2000 on the Sound Blaster Pro and
MediaVision Pro Audio Spectrum boards in rev 3. On Pro Audio Spectrums,
however, there was a bug that stopped all sounds just before taking off.
This has been fixed in these new drivers. Users still on IRQ7 can copy the
file ASNDIRQ7.GS2 as above.
