Indeed I already did, and thus I will let know if in this version, it works. Therefore requiresthough that before can install the version of SoundBlaster 16 from SETUP.EXE (or INSTALL.EXE) regarding setup of audio, video and LAN connection of Heroes of Might & Magic. And then see if it works with the music. I will let know further detailsstill in future updates. Thank you for your kind availability.

Originally, I had another issue: could not find change sound quality from 8-bit to 16-bit audio, with SB-SoundBlaster, but for which I found a solution. In 8-bit music was present, while in 16bit becomes missing, that is it lacks the music only in 16bit, understand?

Can you actually hear the difference between 16 and 8 bit ? It might be that the same samples are used in both cases. (I didn't check, will check the 16 bit sound mode later)

However, it would have been nice if you told us that you changed the settings and are aiming for 16 bit sound... Would have made the troubleshooting a lot easier !!

On here, you should use more or less the same formula as that I showed you, but for this there is a change, and then you switch to this (you have to change on dosbox.conf):

ECHO OFF
mount C "."
imgmount d "homm1.gog" -t iso
c:
cls
IPXNET startServer
NETBIOS.EXE
cls
loadfix -4 setup.exe

However if does not start, then continue typing SETUP.EXE, so enters the setup of audio, video and LAN of the game. On this case, use 1,8,3 and 4. Then see the re-edit formula and put "HEROES.EXE" and "exit" final. And try to see if in the game, in the audio 16-bit music there or not.

I'm glad you're in my center of this state, I hope a solution as soon, meanwhile, will retry to install game it again as recommended. Thanks.
