Ghost too fast bug fix (2016-04-21 06:13)

Saruman

I am from Argentina and speak Spanish therefore use an online translator.
The error of the ghosts that move very fast is arranged by choosing the mouse as a control in the setup menu.

Ghost too fast bug (2011-04-29 20:26)

PuppZ

The issue reported by endre1952 still exists in version 0.74 despite of the 'supported' status.

Does not work properly (2010-01-13 18:54)

endre1952

The game currently cannot be completed in DosBox. The ghost in the ghost-hunting scenes (where you do it for money, not in the courtroom at the beginning) moves around too fast.

However, this issue with the game appeared on some real machines too. May have had something to do with Himem.sys installed...

Bug in actual game (2005-06-01 18:03)

Kippesoep

The game freezing when using the SoundBlaster is a bug in the actual game, not DOSBox. It has this behaviour on a real DOS machine with SB, too. To fix it, hexedit GB.EXE, search for 0B C9 75 FC (offset 0xC6BF for me) and replace with 0B C9 75 F8. Repeat this for SHELL.EXE (offset 0x9391).

With DOSBox 0.63, the game works properly after applying the fix above (I managed to play it through to the end with no bugs whatsoever), so the status should probably be "fully supported".

disabla soundblaster in dosbox.conf

Works fine in the beginning then hangs.
