pereh: I can not get the dialogues spoken normally + the text output of the dialogue. The CD-version brings no text (although the controls say so under CTRL+C). The floppy version shows text, but there is no voice audio output.

LeftHandedMatt: My memory might not be exactly right, but I think in this case it's an either/or option for voice or text.
The CD-ROM version had voice audio, but misses out a lot of dialogue to save space.
The floppy version is text only, but has the full script left intact.

Not a dealbreaker, been waiting a long while to get this game legitimately. Wish their was dual audio and text though.

Pingouache: Thanks. According to information gathered on another forum, one should
add a line in the file SIERRA.INI, with the value :
resAUD = [path to AUDIO directory]
The only problem is that I don't know how to specify this path. I supposed Dosbox was asked to mount to installation folder as a C drive, so I tried "resAUD = C:\AUDIO", but it did not work.
If someone has an idea... ;)
1) install Freddy Pharkas using the GOG installer.
2) Download and install ScummVM from the ScummVM website downloads link
3) Run ScummVM.
4) Choose ADD button
5) point it to where you had GOG install the Freddy Pharkas Philes
6) Select Freddy Pharkas in the ScummVM list
7) Choose OPTIONS
8) Select AUDIO
9) Select the radio button that says "BOTH"
Eh voila, she is done!
You will not get ALL the text but you will get most of it. ScummVM does not seem to recognize where there are blocks of linked text that would normally be played one after the other with no user input in the game, so you'll only get the first block of text in those cases. But you'll get most of it.
BTW - you will need to run it from ScummVM now instead of the installed link that uses DOSBox. Just open ScummVM and select it from the list and run it.
