Hi, my query is as following: would there be a way (using ScummVM of course) to play loom VGA version using the roland update patch? I find the cd version to be somewhat lacking in a decent soundtrack, there are just too many silent moments. Meanwhile, the disk version, has the gorgeous mt-32 soundtrack running throughout the game, but has very inferior graphics. Is there a way to tweak ScummVM to obtain the best of each versions, using different audio resources?
You might be interrested in the FM-Towns version, which has all the tracks in CD audio and the VGA graphics including all the close ups (and no spoken text). That version is very expensive, though.
Yeah, I know about the loom fm-towns, but the thing is, I found out that early cd-audio or redbook was quite lacking for some reason, since it was still new at the time, I think the enhanced midi is still superior, but I don't mind the speech though.
Very nice indeed, if I can achieve a VGA loom with roland support that would be great but I'd have to make sure the FM-Towns score is actually the same as the midi tracks, for authenticity purposes.
Yor read the text on the link above? There, all tracks are listed with titles.
The FM-Towns version has two versions of the soundtrack. You only need 8 tracks for one soundtrack.
Also one track includes two of the midi tracks (like in Monkey 1).
but I'd have to make sure the FM-Towns score is actually the same as the midi tracks, for authenticity purposes.
