Priv and Armada troubles

Saturnyne

Vice Admiral
Priv
-----

The game runs fine, but when I try to use sound/speech, all I get is distorted noise. In DOS, my soundcard emulates the SB16, and my music is general MIDI. Maybe my speech.pak file is damaged or something.

Armada
-----------
The trouble I have is with the joystick. I've calibrated it umpteen times, and this problem is never solved. Whenever I try to turn left, the ship continues to turn a second or two after I've stopped moving. When I turn to the right, it takes a couple of seconds before the ship starts to turn.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Do you use the original Armada or the patched Version (the one with level Passwords?)

For me the patched one does not work with a Joystick while the original one does.

Also there is a joystick calibration utility for Armada (not sure if it was part of said update or separate - look at this site - file section) that allows to calibrate outside of Armada. It might work better then the ingame one.

Finally... (some) Sticks tend to drift after a while of play. So make sure you calibrate the stick when it is 'warm'.
