I tried running MKVI on linux using a lutris game's wine prefix and it worked. I don't know if I'm the first person to run this on linux, but I'm laying claim to that title until further notice.
Everytime I try to open the program, I get an error that says "illegal memory address". I still get this error when I set the compatibility mode and opening it in administrator.
Most people have this problem because it's a very old bit of software written in Dark Basic (for Mk III) and Blitz Basic (for Mk V), sadly I don't have the source code anymore for me to update it. It might be worth asking on the Vincesauce reddit since Vinny featured it a few years ago, I don't know what he did to get it working.
when i open the program it shows "Illegal memory address" i tried changing the compatibility same thing, even tried opening it in administrator still shows the same error
Hi ColdsterColdy, the software was written in the days of Windows XP. The issue seems to be something to do with DirectPlay. If you read the comments further down I think there's a fix.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Download Audacity. In audacity set the recording device to "stereo mix". Press record, then start Dunc's Algomusic.
