I have a question a bit out topic. I've got a PCI soundcard that can play OPL3 music in DOS games. It is actually not a real OPL3 soundcard, but it must have some op3 compatible synth inside of a bigger Yamaha IC named YMF724. It also has an XG MIDI wavetable synthesizer onboard so it can do both …

I've read some other threads but still it doesnt work with glidos. It doesn't start... I've got vdmsound set path in ini file to an actual directory but it still doesn't work with carmav.exe Also I got all the recent drivers for my Radeon 9000, so opengl must be working as it works with other games …

I also found a source code for ADPlug that emulates OPL in Winamp. It has a source file MIDIDATA.h which must be a liabrary for C compiler. Well... it contains data as follows: /* This set of GM instrument patches was provided by Jorrit Rouwe... */ { 0x21, 0x21, 0x8f, 0x0c, 0xf2, 0xf2, 0x45, 0x76, …

I understand this of course. But where do I get info about HOW to translate this hexadecimal or just numeric mumble to a human language? They aren't eager to tell the secret of data format. Frankly speaking I din't find anything *public* regarding this thing.

I've tried VDMsound with several old games like M.A.X., StarControl 3 and I've found out that it cannot transmit the sound smoothly without breaks. It seems it cannot sinchronize sound buffers or it's taking way to much system resources... The game with sound gets unplayable. I've got AthlonXP 2500 …

I havent managed to get in contact with any sentient being withing MAME project. :) As I expected they "redirected" me somewhere else on Mars maybe. One guy said that I should watch inside ADplug gm patch set. Even if I told I'm not a programmer. I thougt it is quite easy just to tell me "attack set …

Thank you much. I've posted a new querry to their forum
