Hi,

I don't see any adlib raw file from game on the net.
Is it possible to extract these file from the game like for the c64 and other ?

Thanks in advance,
Rgds,

Why I'm glad you asked.

Here's all the songs I collected 15+ years ago [!!] using the "RDOS Adlib Catcher" program. To listen to 'em, use RDOSPlay, AdPlay, or AdPlug.

RAWADLIB.ZIP

I later graduated to using the "Adlib-DigiSnap" hardware, which I feel is the superior way to go about it. Here's the full soundtracks I've collected. These are MP3s.

Ad Lib music archive

Both methods are extremely tedious and time consuming. 😵

I hope to add more soundtracks to my "Ad Lib music archive" in the future, but... certainly no promises. And, sorry, I do not take requests.

Enjoy the music! 😀

You're welcome. Have fun listening. 😀

I don't know anything about converting the RAW rips -> MIDI, sorry.

Hi,

For informations:
RDOSPlay don't work correctly in dosbox, need to disable xms. (very limitating)

Dosbox do it natively.
You get dro files instead of raw.
dro can be translated to imf and midi via dro2inf, and dro2midi.

Rgds,
