This is true and it is a mystery

Same here...
No music at all...
Who cares?
The game runs fine:)

WinXP? Could be anything.

Two possibilities come in mind: digital playback is enabled (it's incompatible with Glidos and DOS in general), or the audio cable is missing (thus preventing the analog playback to work). And by 'audio cable' I mean an audio cable between your sound card and your CD-ROM drive - not the IDE cable (LOL)! 😁

Yep this sounds terribly obvious, but most NT/2K/XP users seem to overlook it.

And how do I listen to music CD´s?
And all the other games?
They all work fine...
It´s the TR Gold and the Sold Out version...
Dunno why.

Its ntmscdex that has a problem. Glidos intercepts TR1's calls to this and turns them into Windows-level calls, but somehow what works for Tr1 does not for UB.

No it does´nt Paul.
I´m sorry but I don´t have any music in TR too...
I got UB by download, so I can´t complain (and I´m not complainig) but I don´t have any music in both of them.
The sound effects are ok in both.
I got the Sold Out Windows installer version of Tomb Raider without UB.

But now that I got rid of the graphic problems with dets 42.86 TR is runing very well, smooth and beautiful...something I never ever thought possible.

God bless you Paul Gardiner!;)

Well yes it does, otherwise I wouldn't have had to put support for CD audio into Glidos.

But yes you are right that your problem is different. There are several things you need to get right for Glidos's support for CD audio to work. You must put the TR1 CD into the CD drive whose
letter is earliest in the alhpabet. You need either to have a cable from that drive to your sound card or enable digital audio for it.

It is? Then why is it working on mine?

IIRC, there were certain versions of "Tomb Raider" that were missing the audio tracks. I believe that some of the "Sold Out" versions were that way. You can confirm one way or the other by using "Media Player" to play the game CD.

Nicht> Aah, now my turn to be puzzled 😉

Forcing digital playback definitely doesn't work on my system for anything DOS related. It works fine with any 'recent' app (TR2, Gens, Winamp, Media Player, etc) but will produce nothing but silence with apps like TR (DOS and Glidos), Magic Engine, Anex86, Unz...

Tested on both 2k and XP.

When you use Glidos it is no longer "DOS related". Glidos turns the DOS CD play commands into Windows ones... or it is supposed to and does for some people.

Well...something very weird happens...
Very weird indeed:)

With WMP 9 I got "The Best of George Michael" with TR Sold Out CD...Can you believe it? Nothing plays though...
🤣

But no music at all...
No harm done, silence is priceless too and much better than George Michael;)

And my system is ok, I can play any CD (music or games)

I guess TR UB soundtracks are not yet supported by glidos. However, I am not sure about this. Is this true? Or my CD doesn't work properly? Then, why TR1 works perfect?

Any idea?
Thanks.

Yes, although the Glidos CD audio support makes TR1 work, it doesn't seem to work for UB. I don't know why.
