I am trying to play the CD version of Goblin's Quest 3. It runs fairly well under both DOSbox and VDMSound, but there is no ambient music in either application. There is music in the cutscenes, but no ambient music in the individual screens.

The unusual thing is that I also have the Gobliins 2 CD, and it plays ambient music perfectly, so I don't understand why GQ3 is having this problem, since the two games are so similar.

I have tried changing the "SOUND:BLASTER+MEDIA" line in the GQ3 MDO.DEF file to "SOUND:BLASTER+MEDIA+NOSOUND+ADLIB+NOMDO" (since the G2 MDO.DEF file's line was like that), but that didn't help matters any.

Any tips on getting this game to work properly in DOSbox?
