Thanks for the submission, but R2R isn't yet complete - it's still a work in progress being done on master. So we're not accepting bug reports yet.

As mentioned, R2R isn't yet complete - it's still a work in progress. Closing as "Later"

I do hear occasional pops, seemingly whenever a sound effect is triggered, but I get that if I run it in DOSBox as well. But maybe you were talking about something more pronounced than that?

I was surprised to see that the background hum appears to be an AdLib sound effect, rather than a digitized one.

I should clarify, and say that the humming appears to be two sound effects playing simultaneously, and they are triggered at regular intervals. It's when those effects are triggered that I hear pops, not elsewhere.

@Torbjörn

That is exactly what i was referring to, thanks for confirming.

I completed the game and the only place where it happens is on the Lance of Truth. Two slightly differing background sounds are being played and whenever one sound stops and the other starts a dissortion sounding like a "thud" can be heard.

I don't know if the "Closed-Later" still applies as the game is "supported", so i'll add it to this item
