#Redneck rampage reboot drivers#
Manufacturers historically solved this problem by supplying drivers that virtualised the required settings allowing DOS games to use the card. If you have a PCI sound card like the SBLive! you're just going to have to grin and bear it since PCI sound cards use a higher address and interrupt (my Live! is on address &H9800 and Interrupt 10) than most DOS games can access and on top of that PCI sound cards don't support DMA meaning thats its impossible to get them to work in most DOS games. For some reason, this game was brought back too.With an ISA soundcard like the AWE64 the easiest solution would be to bypass XPs sound emulation by engaging the Win95 compatibility layer and tell the game exactly where the soundcard is since the compatibility layer bypasses the NT HAL and allows the program to directly access the sound hardware.

While this game certainly has a cult status and a pretty vocal fanbase, the developers went bankrupt, there was a lengthy case with the state of Rhode Island due to the game receiving a substantial loan which they could not pay back, and basically everything around this franchise and IP got burnt to the ground. SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - RehydratedĪ mouthful of a name for the remaster of a 3D platformer that really didn’t set the world on fire back in the day, but that got a bit of a second wind thanks to speedrunning. Nintendo is breaking records with their Super Mario 3D All-Stars, people are raving about the upcoming Demon’s Souls remake (though that is currently only announced for next-gen), and we’re seeing a lot of classic RTS games like WarCraft 3, Command & Conquer and the original Age of Empires 3 trilogy getting brought back with a new coat of paint and various changes, we saw Crash Bandicoot and Spyro make triumphant comebacks, and so on.īut while nobody can really deny the potential of a Super Mario or an Age of Empires remake, we’ve certainly seen some weird remasters, games that were brought back from prior generations of consoles despite not necessarily selling too much, without necessarily being cult classics, without being too high on anybody’s list probably, even aside from titles released around launch that were quick cashgrabs like the Metro remasters, Prototype 1 and 2, etc… The list includes: As triple-A gaming becomes more time-consuming and expensive, a lot of publishers resorted to re-releasing some of their classics to fill the gaps, some inevitably left open by the delays caused by the pandemic too.
