Syndicate Wars
No matter what i do i cant change the cd volume during mission gameplay. In-game sound settings work only in menu, but during mission cd music is always at the same level, even if i set sound volume to 0. Any solution?

2. I did thousand tricks to change res in game to 16:9 and...Nothing!!! Still 4:3 with black bars.

For the resolution, check your graphics card driver settings to see how it scales 4:3 images. If it preserves aspect ratio then you'll get black bars, if it stretches the image then it will fill the screen. Bear in mind that with the aspect ratio preserved you get the intended image. I don't know if there is a way to get the game itself to use a 16:9 aspect ratio, so if you want it to fill the screen it will likely be stretched horizontally.

As for the CD music, are you using the GOG version which uses DOSBox? If so, add a mixer line in the config file to reduce the CD audio.

Thanks for reply.

Yeap I use Gog version. I added line MIXER CDAUDIO 30:30 and it works, but it's still mistery why in-game cd volume setting has no effect during mission when tension and sound volume settings work well.

In Catalyst i use "scale image to full panel size" .

Ok, i found solution to 16:9 aspect ratio!!!
In file dosboxSWARS.conf i changed fullresolution=desktop to fullresolution=original and it works like a charm ;) no black bars!!

The CD audio is an issue with DOSBox itself. It doesn't support the volume correctly hence why you have to set it up via the MIXER command in the conf file.

Ah, yes, the conf file can also tell the game what resolution to use. I use a Windows port for Syndicate Wars so don't get this issue.
