PC Task 4

[Fransexy_]

PCtask haven't any sound emulation
but
PCX have pc speaker emulation.....I remember I tried the game lure of the tempest and worked with sound at real speed
also it seems PCX have soundblaster emulation but I tried and never worked...maybe need to install soundblaster dos drivers

PCX also emulates up to a Pentium and PC-TASK only up to a 486. And PCX could use different bios.
On paper PCX can be seen as better, but PC-task is far better than PCX in practice IMHO

PCX doesn't implement protected mode, so you can't run any 32 bit software.

I think Police Quest 4 needs protected mode so  it will have to be PC-Task.
I guess I have 2 options either play it on a PC or play it with annoying beeps and no speach.

Unless I can work out how to get shapeshifter to run properly. I got into the OS but can't do much else

I could see something moving in the distance, like it was coming closer...but it turned out to be the game drawing polygons for distant terrain features.
