Hi all,

I'm trying to capture midi message from the game 'Superhero League Of Hoboken' but the file captured (midi sounds works fine on my mt32 thru Dosbox) is corrupted. The capture works fine on every other games I have tried so far: Sierras, 'Cruise For A Corpse' ... but this one (and I suspect any other Legend games) give a *.mid file that doesn't work.
I'd like to know if someone could try and tell if he succeed(ed).

My midi conf. in dosbox:

mpu401=intelligent
device=default
config=

Regards,

Meddy

Is it possible that you started the capture after starting the game? If so, it's possible that it didn't capture some SysEx data that is needed to reprogram that MT-32 sounds.

No, I launch the capture at the dos prompt, before typing the command for the game

Just tried to capture midi in Timquest and Spellcasting 301 and the same problem occurs = The file captured does not work (there is data). This happens only with Legend games. Has anyone had the same problem with games from this company? (By the way I didn't manage to have midi MT32 with Spellcasting 101).
