Tried to get the SB sounds and music playing with this game, but I get nothing at all. Using DOSBox default options.

Sorry if this has been asked before. I've googled before posting, but didn't see anything that worked for me.

With default settings the game will find the emulated MIDI port and try to play MT-32 music -- if DOSBox isn't using a MIDI synth on the host system then you'd hear nothing.

The game should use OPL for music and sfx with the mpu401=none setting.

That makes sense... I've been testing MT-32 sound in a number of games and according to the VOGONS Wiki some games need that option in order to play SB sound, such as Shadoworlds.

I'll try it later and tell if it works.

Thank you, ripsaw8080.

Good catch! That was the issue, thank you.
