Hi everyone

I have an original Roland MT-32 (old), Creative
SB16 CT2940, MS-DOS 6.22 and SoftMPU. AGENT.EXE MD5: f164a4f84d7be2601353207ddc5f1bf4 (192705 bytes). David Wolf doesn't send any MIDI data to the MT-32. PCMIDI files page mentions an IRQ2/9 patch for David Wolf. Does anyone still have the patch or know where it can be downloaded?

What are your current SoftMPU settings?

The game is very old without any type of configuration utility. It's hardcoded to Port 330, IRQ 2.

If you are on an original XT, you use IRQ 2. However, for anything newer IRQ 2 is a cascading IRQ. Things making a call to it will be redirected to IRQ 9. As IRQ 2 is used as an interrupt to switch to the second PIC to allow more IRQs.

So have SoftMPU configured for IRQ 9.

You have tested your configuration with other intelligent mode MT-32 games right?
