You may need other files from canadacow's emulator, too. I just copied all the syx files and patchlog.cfg into the scummvm directory. I don't know exactly which are needed. Sure enough, that was it. The files needed are: drumpat.rom MT32_PCM.ROM patchlog.cfg Preset1.syx Preset2.syx Also, there …

Alkarion, thanks for the link. I just tried it out, and ScummVM seems to crash (no error message) when I boot up Monkey2 (edit: ANY MT-32 capable game) with emulated MT-32 sound. I've tried putting the patch ROM file in the same directory as the game, as ScummVM, and even adding it as an "extrapath" …

At least one good reason to want to run DooM in DOSBox: playback of old demos recorded with older versions of the game that aren't supported with the modern source ports. Many source ports have very patchy demoplay support anyway. Also, some speedrun competitions still require that you run vanilla …

I'd love to hear of your experience with Dune's OPL3 (AdLib Gold) in DOSBox. Adlib Gold support in DOSBox was discussed and dismissed here . There are very few games that support it that don't also support SB16, Dune being one of them I think. It would definitely be nice to have, eventually, …

Cool, I installed .NET with no problems. The DRO tool seems pretty good for the task at hand, so once the new DOSBox release comes out with fixed DRO support I'll try doing a "release quality" rip. Has anyone done a rip of Stephane Picq's Dune soundtrack? If not I'll do that one.

Nice work zeromus... I wanna try out your DRO tool, but I don't have the .NET Framework installed. What are the effects of installing it? Anything shady or annoying? (Sorry, somewhere along the way I developed an irrational fear of anything with .NET in its name)

Some comparisons between Adplug LAA and "real" Adlib output. "Real" in airquotes because it's recorded using DOSBox's WAV output ability, but I've compared it with the real thing and my ear can't really find any difference.

Heya, sorry I was away on vacation. Very interesting info, philhassey. 1. does the scumm resource file contain a patchset datafile?

Tangentially related, but if you are a contributor to the Adplug project (or are tinkering with it on your own) and you care about this sort of thing, Adplug still doesn't correctly play back LucasArts music files (LAA, or ADL if you've extracted them directly from the resource files with something …

But to memory a very small number of dos games had 3dfx graphics in them. GLQuake and Chasm are 2 that quickly come to mind. GLQuake was a win32-only program as far as I know, like WinQuake with a GL renderer. I believe there was a DOS version of VQuake, the Rendition Verite-optimized version of …

I'm curious, is there any way to edit these DRO files? If they're recorded directly from in-game music they're going to have some additional silence or noise before and after them (particularly if they loop like the DOOM tunes), which isn't good for a proper soundtrack. Also, I'm noticing some …

Make sure the soundcard is configured properly in MoM's sound setup utility (should be INSTALL.EXE in the game directory). If you're using the default DOSBox settings, it'll be something like Port 220, IRQ 7, DMA 1... if you've worked with DOS before you know the drill.
