Wasn't sure the proper sub for this post, so we'll start here.
Using SyncTERM 1.1 on Windows 10 64-bit.
The door game Yankee Trader plays sounds at various points. They normally show u
p like the following strings in terminals without sound support:
BT128O5L48P64CP64C<ascii code 14; music notes>
BO4L32P32CP64CP64CP64L16EP64L32CP64L12E<ascii code 14; music notes>
The way to hear sounds in place of these strings in SycTERM is to set the ANSI m
usic option to "All ANSI Music enabled". The other two options do nothing.
The sounds do play when SyncTERM receives these strings in the game, however Syn
cTERM then immediately crashes and writes the following to the Application log i
n Event Viewer:
Faulting application name: syncterm.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x0000000

A similar thing happens in Linux Mint, but instead SyncTERM completely locks up
and refuses further input rather than crashing.
Interestingly, I tried the same thing from Windows Vista 32-bit, and the ANSI mu
sic plays there with no problems whatsoever. So I wonder if it's a problem runni
ng SyncTERM on specific platforms.
I spent a lot of time googling for "faulting module path ntdll.dll". Found a lot
of topics relating to it, none of which having anything in common with each oth
er, and none having anything to do with SyncTERM.
Any ideas?
Also, can someone else who's running Yankee Trader please try to recreate the is
sue (or feel free to telnet to conchaos.synchro.net if you don't have the game y
ourself)? It would be helpful to know if it's just me, or if it's an actual bug
in SyncTERM.
