Command Line Options
The sound/music/graphic drivers are automatically
chosen to be the best your computer can support. If you experience
problems, you can add command-line flags to force a particular driver.
To add command-flags, right-click on the Rich Diamond
shortcut. Select 'properties' in the pop-up window, click the 'shortcut'
tab, then edit the 'target' string. Add one or more of the following
flags to the end of that string.
If you run Rich Diamond from the Start Menu, you can
find the properties window by right-clicking the tool bar, selecting
'Properties', clicking the 'Startup Menu Programs' tab, then clicking
the 'Advanced' button. Search through the browser for Rich Diamond,
then right-click on that entry. From there, select 'Properties',
click the 'Shortcut' tab, then edit the 'Target' string.
Sound: Rich Diamond first tries to use DirectSound.
If that does not work, it tries to use Windows sounds, and if that
fails, then sounds are disabled. These flags force selection of
Windows sounds or no sounds:
/winsound use Windows sound effects.
/nosound disable sound effects
Music: Rich Diamond tries to play music from
the CD. If the CD is not present, it plays MIDI music. The program
tries using DirectMusic, and if that doesn't work will try Windows
music. If none of these work, music is disabled. These flags force
selection of the music mode:
/cdmusic plays background music from the CD.
/dmusic use DirectMusic.
/winmusic use Windows music.
/nomusic disables music
Video: Rich Diamond uses your current screen
resolution when the game starts. You can force it to use another
resolution with the following flags:
/1024 1024 x 768
/800 800 x 600
/640 640 x480
